Magelex

This README reflects (more or less) the current development state, for documentation of a given version, see the README shipped with that gem (or respective tag on github).

Magelex takes Magento online shop order data and presents it in a format that Lexware can read to model open positions.

Aim is to manage the cash flow in Lexware.

The solution is specific for one customers needs. If you need a similar solution (or have a better one!) contact me!

Installation

Install it yourself as:

$ gem install magelex

Assumptions

Customer accounts are hard coded. Database access is necessary for date corrections (but can be skipped).

Usage

Call magelex --help to get a basic idea:

Usage: magelex DIR_OR_FILE

Imports order data from magento csv export, exports this data to be imported to open positions in lexware.

    -o, --out-dir DIR                Directory to write output files to.
    -l, --log-file FILE              File to log to (default: STDERR).
    -v, --verbose                    Run verbosely
    -s, --skip-db                    Do not update dates from mysql database.
    -h, --help                       Show this help and exit.
        --version                    Show version and exit.

By default, magelex will log to STDERR, but you can pass the path to a log file.

It consumes a single file (given as argument, as in magelex magento_orders.csv) or a directory of files. magelex will create a file with same filename in the path lexware (can be changed with the --out-dir option).

magelex_debug

To play around with data, magelex_debug can help you. Nothing that couldnt be done with some proper application of shell scripting foo, but more convenient. Run magelex_debug --help to get an overview over possible options and arguments.

Configuration

Configure magento MySQL database access in magelex.conf . An example configuration comes shipped with the gem (magelex.conf.example).

If no database queries should be done, invoke with --skip-db.

Use the command line interface

Call magelex --help to get a basic idea.

Documentation of process

bin/magelex will read in a CSV file with orders exported by magento (Magelex::MagentoCSV). In this file, one row accounts for one 'order item'. Items are added up to form a Magelex::LexwareBill. Adding Items to a LexWareBill collects the brutto values separated by tax. For this, the tax category (0%, 7% or 19%) has to be guessed (Magelex::TaxGuesser).

Result of this processing are a number of LexwareBills. Swiss orders require some special attention, so steps are undertaken to adjust these to reality. Afterwards, the shipping costs can be included.

Finally the LexwareBills that conform to the rules (LexwareBill#check) can be exported to be imported to Lexware (Magelex::LexwareCSV).

TODO

Quite something

Changes

  • 0.1.7: bills in state 'fraud' count as 'complete'
  • 0.1.6: fixed discounts in lexware output (have to be negative)
    skip rounding when consuming shipping costs
  • 0.1.5: respect existence of incorrect tax assignments when considering whether a split booking has to be done.
  • 0.1.4: respect per-item discounts

Development

After checking out the repo, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bundle console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. Run bundle exec magelex to use the gem in this directory, ignoring other installed copies of this gem.

Generally, I prefer to work and develop in bundle exec-mode.

To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
