Hi David,
Is possible to get price tapestry to import into a Perl search engine script software
I own power seek SQL for some time now and this would be great if this could be done i don't mind buying a new license if needed i was wondering if you can mix Perl code with PHP code? is only the import that i would need as the search side would be taken care of from Perl side.I would need to source this project out to a programmer to have done.
I have searched high and low and I can't find anything like your code for the magic parser in Perl, this is the code i think i need but not being a programmer i don't know if i am on the right path maybe you can advise on the best way to go would be a great plug in for power seek could bring you many more sales for your code just an idea David your software and support as been fantastic.
All the best
Darren
Hi Darren,
PHP and Perl are not generally mixable within the same script, although you could implement a combined PHP / Perl project with separate pages of each or by calling Perl script inline from PHP (or vice-versa).
However, in this instance, what might be a reasonably straight forward approach is not to import again into your power seek database, but instead to write a script in whatever language you (or your developer) wishes to copy entries from the Price Tapestry database (products table) directly into the power seek database. It might even be possible to do it entire within a single SQL statement, but a script would probably be needed if the format needed to be changed at all...
Cheers,
David.
