Guess that mean it’s time for me to start working on a free one.

Any idea of when these might surface?

The free one sounds good rasberry

It most definitely should be a core module for a system like Magento.

This is a nice way to export to google base, but manually editing can be time consuming when you have many products. An automated system would be nice that incorporates a ftp protocol using a scheduling, maybe through cron.

@jan212 - you had mentioned a commercial version. Will this have ftp abilities to upload directly to google and be configurable in the admin?

I just look into Magento’s capabilities and the possibility of creating a datafeed for Google Base.

From what I’m seeing, it looks fairly easy thing to implement.

It should be easy. I’ve set up a profile for export which meets the Google Base requirements in every way, except for the link and image_link attributes which only show the relative url and not the full path, if somebody knows how to export the full path then the whole thing’s achievable.

The following is the XML for the Export Profile…

<action type="catalog/convert_adapter_product" method="load">
    <var 
name="store"><![CDATA[0]]></var>
    <var 
name="filter/type"><![CDATA[simple]]></var>
    <var 
name="filter/status"><![CDATA[1]]></var>
</
action>

<
action type="catalog/convert_parser_product" method="unparse">
    <var 
name="store"><![CDATA[0]]></var>
</
action>

<
action type="dataflow/convert_mapper_column" method="map">
    <var 
name="map">
        <
map name="sku"><![CDATA[id]]></map>
        <
map name="name"><![CDATA[title]]></map>
        <
map name="short_description"><![CDATA[description]]></map>
        <
map name="price"><![CDATA[price]]></map>
        <
map name="thumbnail"><![CDATA[image_link]]></map>
        <
map name="url_path"><![CDATA[link]]></map>
    </var>
    <var 
name="_only_specified">true</var>
</
action>

<
action type="dataflow/convert_parser_csv" method="unparse">
    <var 
name="delimiter"><![CDATA[\t]]></var>
    <var 
name="enclose"><![CDATA[]]></var>
    <var 
name="fieldnames">true</var>
</
action>

<
action type="dataflow/convert_adapter_io" method="save">
    <var 
name="type">file</var>
    <var 
name="path">var/export</var>
    <var 
name="filename"><![CDATA[google_products.tsv]]></var>
</
action>

@Dunc - Thank you very much for sharing your profile. That is something we can use for the time being.

We came from a shop that allowed you to ftp the exported file with a single click to Google Base.

Very interested in seeing an ftp mod that can be set to upload at an admin set time schedule.

I know Google Base excepts scheduling of downloading the feed but it is limited to 15mb or less.

So for shops that don’t have a 15mb file you “could” set a different location that google base scheduler can grab the file automatically. That is once we figure out how to get the skin url into the path of the images.

I’m working on a solution where you can just use Google Base scheduler get your datafeed.

No messing with ftp or export/import.
