dynamic property - while indexing

[KdM]

Hi Experts,

Can we create new properties while we do indexing ? Could you guys please share some thoughts on this,

We are using ProductCatalogSimpleIndexingAdmin, to trigger indexing.

eg:In my case, i have the store_id in a Store repository, need to make an inventory check passing each store
id and create a property for each store like this

for each product  record ,i need to create the below properties also, in addition to what we have in the prod-sku-output-config.xml

product.stock.10001_store : 1
product.stock.20002_store : 0
product.stock.30003_store : 1
product.stock.40004_store : 0


My intention is to leverage on this property, and then use a record filter and remove the records based on Store which has
product.stock.20002_store : 0  and product.stock.40004_store : 0

Note : Store_id we have in the request.

Warm Regards

KdM

You can propertyaccessor to manipulate your properties. You can return that as a map and it will get indexed separately.

But in the pcoc.xml we are specifying the output-name="product.stockStatuses", my case i need to generate these property name dynamic while we do the indexing.
Hope it clarifies my question,

<property name="stockStatuses" multiselect-type="multi-or" is-dimension="true" type="string" property-accessor="/com/BCC/endeca/index/accessor/InStockStoresAccessor"

output-name="product.stockStatuses" is-non-repository-property="true"/>

[Yuvraj Patel]

Yes , you can return the map from your accessor

You can use GenerativePropertyAccessor to create dynamic endeca properties during indexing.

Try to follow what is being done for prices. See the link -

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35318_02/Platform.10-1-1/ATGEndecaIntegrationGuide/html/s0502pricelistmappropertyaccessor01.html

Sample ref-

public class StockAttributesAccessor extends GenerativePropertyAccessor {
    @Override
    protected Map<String, Object> getPropertyNamesAndValues(Context arg0,
            RepositoryItem pItem, String propertyName, PropertyTypeEnum arg3,
            boolean arg4) {
       
      Map<String, Object> outputStockProperties = new HashMap<String, Object>();
          //apply logic for store/stock, and keep adding keys to map. each key is a different endeca property
            outputStockProperties.put("product." + dynamicKeyName, attributeValue);
        return outputStockProperties;
    }
}

PCOC- something like

<property name="stock" text-searchable="true" is-dimension="true property-accessor="/<path to accessor>/StockAttributesAccessor" multiselect-type="multi-or"/>

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Sushant

Thanks a lot Sushant, GenerativePropertyAccessor is the solution:

Hopefully i should be able use a Query parameter and sort this in reverse order. I will keep you guys posted.

did this worked? Can you send us the code

[KdM]

Yes, it worked perfectly,  you can research based on the below sample output..
