== Objective ==
The objective of this article is to show you how to make a massive image importation process. Specificilly, we are going to import product images.

== Execution Steps ==
We are going to create a [http://wiki.openbravo.com/wiki/ERP_2.50:Developers_Guide/How_to_Create_Your_Own_Import_Process_with_IDL custom importation process], using the '''Initial Data Load for Java''' module. We are going to use the java class SampleProductsProcess, included in this module...
For that we will use the java class '''SampleProductsProcess.java''' as the base that is included in the '''Initial Data Load Module for Java''', and through a series of single modifications we will include a new column within the import .csv that will allow us to specify the path of the image that is associated to the product.
=== Installing Required Modules ===

* Activate the Professional subscription License.
* Go to General Setup -> Application -> Module Management -> Add Modules
* Search and install the following modules.
** Initial Data Load (Refer [[http://forge.openbravo.com/projects/xidl|here]])
** Initial Data Load Extension for Java (Refer[[http://forge.openbravo.com/projects/idljava|here]])

=== Preparing SampleProductsProcess.java ===
The following modifications need to be made:

*'''getEntityName''' method: We will simply return the name of our new entity.

<dl><dd><source lang="java">public String getEntityName() {
return "Simple Products With Image";
}
</source></dl>
*'''getParameters''' method : We add a new parameter to localize our image.

<dl><dd><source lang="java"> ....
new Parameter("ImageLocation", Parameter.STRING) };
....
</source></dl>
*'''validateProcess''' method: We add a validator for our new field (for example: for the maximum length)
<dl><dd><source lang="java"> ....
validator.checkString(values[21], 255);
....
</source></dl>
*'''internalProcess''' method: We have to pass a parameter to the createProduct() method.

<dl><dd><source lang="java">public BaseOBObject internalProcess(Object... values) throws Exception {
return createProduct((String) values[0], (String) values[1], (String) values[2],
(String) values[3], (String) values[4], (String) values[5], (String) values[6],
(String) values[7], (String) values[8], (String) values[9], (String) values[10],
(String) values[11], (String) values[12], (String) values[13], (String) values[14],
(String) values[15], (String) values[16], (String) values[17], (String) values[18],
(String) values[19], (String) values[20], (String) values[21]);
}
</source></dl>
*'''createProduct''' method: Additionally to receiving a new parameter (imagelocation), this method does contain the logic to import the image to the database from its physical location.

<dl><dd><source lang="java"> ....
File imageFile = new File(imagelocation);
if (imageFile.exists()) {
FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream(imageFile);
long length = imageFile.length();
byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) length];
int offset = 0;
int numRead = 0;
while (offset < bytes.length
&& (numRead = is.read(bytes, offset, bytes.length - offset)) >= 0) {
offset += numRead;
}
is.close();
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);
BufferedImage rImage = ImageIO.read(bis);
Image productImage = OBProvider.getInstance().get(Image.class);
productImage.setName(imageFile.getName());
productImage.setBindaryData(bytes);
productImage.setWidth(new Long(rImage.getWidth()));
productImage.setHeight(new Long(rImage.getHeight()));
productImage.setMimetype(tika.detect(bytes));
OBDal.getInstance().save(productImage);
OBDal.getInstance().flush();
product.setImage(productImage);
}
....
</source></dl>

=== Registering the Process ===

|
* Go to Master Data Management -> Initial Data Load -> Setup -> Entity Default Value
* Register your Java file here as shown in the screen shot.

|}
=== Importing the Data ===
{|width="100%"
|-|- valign="top"
|
The .csv file that contains the data, must include the new column we have added, with the string '''"ImageLocation"''' in the header.

||[[Image:imageLocation.png|thumbnail|right|300px|View larger]]||
|}
Pay special attention on the class name while adding the entity default value.

{|width="100%"
|-|- valign="top"
|
* Import the data using import window
* Go to Master Data Management -> Initial Data Load -> Process -> Import
* Choose the input file
* Choose the entity as '''"Product With Image"'''

||[[Image:importScreen.png|thumbnail|right|300px|View larger]]||
|}

* Validate the input file. If the file has invalid data, it will show the invalid data in the log.Screen

* Once the input values are validated, the data can be loaded into the actual table by clicking on the process.
* If there are any issues while processing the input data, appropriate messages will be logged in the message box provided under the Log header in the import screen.

== Result ==
As the result, we have the product imported with its corresponding product image.
