NAME

ProductOpener::Products - create and save products

SYNOPSIS

ProductOpener::Products is used to create products and save them in Product Opener's database and file system.

    use ProductOpener::Products qw/:all/;

        my $product_ref = init_product($User_id, $Org_id, $code, $countryid);

        $product_ref->{product_name_en} = "Chocolate cookies";

        store_product("my-user", $product_ref, 'helpful comment');

DESCRIPTION

Revisions

When a product is saved, a new revision of the product is created. All revisions are saved in the file system:

products/[barcode path]/1.sto - first revision products/[barcode path]/2.sto - 2nd revision ... products/[barcode path]/product.sto - link to latest revision

The latest revision is stored in the products collection of the MongoDB database.

Completeness, data quality and edit history

Before a product is saved, this module compute the completeness and quality of the data, and the edit history.

FUNCTIONS

make_sure_numbers_are_stored_as_numbers ( PRODUCT_REF )

make_sure_numbers_are_stored_as_numbers() forces numbers contained in the product data to be stored as numbers (and not strings) in MongoDB.

Perl scalars are not typed, the internal type depends on the last operator used on the variable... e.g. if it is printed with a string concatenation, then it's converted to a string.

See https://metacpan.org/pod/JSON%3a%3aXS#PERL---JSON

assign_new_code ( )

assign_new_code() assigns a new unused code to store a new product that does not have a barcode.

        my ($code, $product_id) = assign_new_code();

Return values

A list with the new code and the corresponding product_id.

Caveats

Invalid codes

This function currently assign new codes in sequence starting from 2000000000001. We increment the number by 1 for each product (which means codes are not valid as the last digit is supposed to be the check digit), and check if there is already a product for that number.

Code conflicts

Codes starting with 2 are reserved for internal uses, there may be conflicts as other companies can use the same codes.

normalize_code()

normalize_code() this function normalizes the product code by: - running the given code through normalization method provided by GS1 to format a GS1 data string, or data URL to a GTIN, - keeping only digits and removing spaces/dashes etc., - normalizing the length by adding leading zeroes or removing the leading zero (in case of 14 digit codes)

Arguments

Product Code in the Raw form: $code

Return Values

Normalized version of the code

normalize_code_with_gs1_ai()

normalize_code_with_gs1_ai() this function normalizes the product code by: - running the given code through normalization method provided by GS1 to format a GS1 data string, or data URI to a GTIN, - keeping only digits and removing spaces/dashes etc., - normalizing the length by adding leading zeroes or removing the leading zero (in case of 14 digit codes)

Arguments

Product Code in the Raw form: $code

Return Values

Normalized version of the code, and GS1 AI data string of the code, if a valid GS1 string was given as the argument

is_valid_code($code)

is_valid_code() checks if the given code is a valid product code.

Arguments

Product Code: $code

Return Values

Boolean value indicating if the code is valid or not.

split_code()

split_code() this function splits the product code for determining the product path and the _id. product_path_from_id() utilizes this for the said purpose.

Arguments

Product Code: $code

Return Values

Code that has been split into 3 sections of three digits and one fourth section with the remaining digits. Example: 1234567890123 :- 123/456/789/0123

product_id_for_owner ( OWNER_ID, CODE )

product_id_for_owner() returns the product id associated with a product barcode.

If the products on the server are public, the product id is equal to the product code.

If the products on the server are private (e.g. on the platform for producers), the product_id is of the form user-[user id]/[code] or org-[organization id]/code.

The product id can be prefixed by a server id to indicate that is is on another server (e.g. Open Food Facts, Open Beauty Facts, Open Products Facts or Open Pet Food Facts) e.g. off:[code]

Parameters

Owner id

Code

Product barcode

In most cases, pass $Owner_id which is initialized by ProductOpener::Users::init_user()

  undef for public products
  user-[user id] or org-[organization id] for private products

Return values

The product id.

server_for_product_id ( $product_id )

Returns the server for the product, if it is not on the current server.

Parameters

$product_id

Product id of the form [code], [owner-id]/[code], or [server-id]:[code] or [server-id]:[owner-id]/[code]

Return values

undef is the product is on the current server, or server id of the server of the product otherwise.

data_root_for_product_id ( $product_id )

Returns the data root for the product, possibly on another server.

Parameters

$product_id

Product id of the form [code], [owner-id]/[code], or [server-id]:[code]

Return values

The data root for the product.

www_root_for_product_id ( $product_id )

Returns the www root for the product, possibly on another server.

Parameters

$product_id

Product id of the form [code], [owner-id]/[code], or [server-id]:[code]

Return values

The www root for the product.

product_path_from_id ( $product_id )

Returns the relative path for the product.

Parameters

$product_id

Product id of the form [code], [owner-id]/[code], or [server-id]:[code]

Return values

The relative path for the product.

product_path ( $product_ref )

Returns the relative path for the product.

Parameters

$product_ref

Product object reference.

Return values

The relative path for the product.

product_id_from_path ( $product_path )

Reverse of product_path_from_id.

There is no guarantee the result will be correct... but it's way faster than loading the sto !

init_product ( $userid, $orgid, $code, $countryid )

Initializes and return a $product_ref structure for a new product. If $countryid is defined and is not "en:world", then assign this country for the countries field. Otherwise, use the country associated with the ip address of the user.

Return Type

Returns a $product_ref structure

send_notification_for_product_change ( $user_id, $product_ref, $action, $comment, $diffs )

store_product ($user_id, $product_ref, $comment)

Save changes of a product: - in a new .sto file on the disk - in MongoDB (in the products collection, or products_obsolete collection if the product is obsolete)

Before saving, some field values are computed, and product history and completeness is computed.

compute_data_sources ( $product_ref, $changes_ref )

Parameters

User id

New user id

record_user_edit_type($users_ref, $user_type, $user_id)

Record that a user has made a change of a specific type to the product.

where it applies

It applies in all API/form that edit the product. It applies to apply an image crop.

It does not block image upload.

edit_rules structure

conditions

Each condition is either a match on user_id or it's contrary user_id_not, or in_TAG_NAME_tags for a tag field to match a specific tag id.

Note that conditions are checked before editing the product !

actions

ignore alone, ignore every edits.

You can also have rules of the form ignore_FIELD and warn_FIELD which will ignore (or notify) edits on the specific field.

Note that ignore rules also create a notification.

For nutriments use nutriments_NUTRIMENT_NAME for FIELD.

You can guard the rule on the field with a condition: ignore_if_CONDITION_FIELD or warn_if_CONDITION_FIELD This time it's to check the value the user want's to add.

CONDITION is one of the following:

notifications

Notifications are email addresses to send emails, or "slack_CHANNEL_NAME" (warning currently channel name is ignored, we post to edit-alerts)
