Import + indexing daily routine suggestion...


Recommended Posts

hi,

please i need an expert opinion...

daily i import a big catalogue for some presta installations on my vserver...

it has a single cpu and 2GB of Ram...

well...my question is:

is really important to do the indexing every time i update the catalogue, or if i did it one time then i can do it, for example, once a week for every installation? Monday one...Tuesday another installation...and so on...

 

Try to explain better....

i mainly need user to can do the SEARCH on Front Office... 'cause i noticed that if the indexing is not completely done, ajax search doesn't work...!

Indexing for my many products requires too much time...and if i don't calculate very well the cronjobs script time, processes overlap and vserver suffers...i use "top" on CentOs and see many apache processes that suck all the Ram...

Maybe is it only a 1.4.3 issue?

 

Thank you very much for your answers

Re-indexing all the products can take a long time, but it the only easy way to make sure the search will work.

 

If you import script deletes all the products and adds them again (with new IDs), that is your only option.

 

If you script simply adds / removes products, you could run the Prestashop code to index only that product (much like it's currently doing when you add / update a product from the backoffice)
