Magento CSV(huge) Export Extension

Extension that enables the generation of large CSV files.

With this extension you can generate and download huge csv files. Every time you need a updated csv you can go to the admin panel and trigger the cron. The cron is only executed when you say so, I mean, you say to the extension: I want a new updated csv! This behaviour avoids wasting of processing. (Let´s save the environment!)

It also enables you create report from views or tables

Configuration

This extension works is pretty much plug and play. You may need enabled it :) To do so, go to System > Configuration > Acaldeira > Csv Exporter In the tab CSV Exporter: Enabled = Yes

In order to enable the custom reports, you have to enable it at: System > Configuration > Acaldeira > Csv Exporter

Then you can create as many report as you want :)

You can use as many attributes as you want, these are just a few simple example.

Customers Header

name;email;gender:dob

Customers Template

{{var customer.name}};{{var customer.email}};{{var customer.gender}};{{var customer.dob}}

Orders Header

increment_id;created_at;grand_total;customer_email

Orders Template

{{var order.increment_id}};{{var order.created_at}};{{var order.grand_total}};{{var order.customer_email}}

Catalog Header

name;sku;price

Catalog Template

{{var product.name}};{{var product.sku}};{{var product.price}}

You can also use loops if you need iterate through order items, e.g.:

{{for item in order.all_visible_items}}
{{var loop.index}};{{var item.sku}};{{var item.name}};{{var item.price}};{{var item.ordered_qty}}
{{/for}} 

Documentation

The code is self explanatory but if you have any questions, do not hesitate in contacting me.

If you do not know how to create a mysql view, is pretty simple:

Supposing that you have this query to extract the coupon usage report:

select u.coupon_id, c.code, count(*) as total from salesrule_coupon_usage u, salesrule_coupon c where u.coupon_id=c.coupon_id  group by u.coupon_id;

And the query for creating the view becomes:

create view view_coupon_usage AS select u.coupon_id, c.code, count(*) as total from salesrule_coupon_usage u, salesrule_coupon c where u.coupon_id=c.coupon_id  group by u.coupon_id;

This is it. Pretty simple. If you open your database, you will probably see a new table (view) "view_coupon_usage"

Now you can go to Report > CSV Reports > Add Report and create a new custom report. (use the same view name "view_coupon_usage" in this case)
