Prestashop Source Plugin for Medusa

A Medusa plugin that imports categories and products from Prestashop into Medusa.

Description

This plugin imports Prestashop categories and products into Medusa. It creates categories and products that don't exist and updates those that have been imported previously.

Limitations

Prerequisites

Medusa Setup

You must have a Medusa server installed before installing this plugin.

Furthermore, the Medusa server should have PostgreSQL, Redis and File Service installed and configured on your Medusa server.

Prestashop Setup

Go to the PrestaShop back office, open the “Web service” page under the “Advanced Parameters” menu, and then choose “Yes” for the “Enable PrestaShop Webservice” option.

Generate a key and copy it as you'll need them for the plugin's options.

You need to give at least the integration access to the following resources:

• products
• product_options
• product_option_values
• combinations
• categories
• stock_availables
• images

We recommend enabling all the resources.

Installing Plugin

To install the plugin run the following command on your Medusa server:

npm install medusa-source-prestashop

Plugin Configurations

Add the plugin and its options into the plugins array in medusa-config.js:

const plugins = [
  //...
  {
    resolve: `medusa-source-prestashop`,
    //if your plugin has configurations
    options: {
      prestashop_url: '<YOUR_PRESTASHOP_URL>', // example 'https://prestashopstore.com/api',
      consumer_key: '<YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY>' // example 'FDSFJKLJFASDKLFJAJLKJFDS'
      additionalParams: {}
      generateNewHandles: boolean
    },
  },
];

Options

Name	Description	Required	Default Value
prestashop_url	The URL of your Medusa server. It should end with a /api.	true
consumer_key	The Consumer Key of the integration.	true
generateNewHandles	Should the importer generate new handles or use link_rewrite in prestashop product	false	false
additionalParams	Additional parameters to send when making Prestashop webservice request	false	undefined

Use the Plugin

Server Startup

To use the plugin, just start the Medusa server:

npm start

The import process will run in the background of the server. Based on how many products you have, it can take some time the first time running it.

As a Batch Job

You can trigger the import by creating a new batch job using the Create Batch Job API endpoint. You can pass the following in the payload:

{
  "type": "import-prestashop",
  "context": {},
  "dry_run": false
}

This will trigger the import process.
