Import 60.000 users

[Gabriel BZ, modificado hace 13 años.]

Hi,

I need to imnport about 60.000 users from excel. I saw is possible by web service (tunnel-web/axis), but the performance (with SOAP) may not be good.

I know insert directly in database strategy may infer in data consistency cause relations and lucene index will be affected.

What better solution in this case?

thanks!

Have u considered develop a portlet, that uploads your file (xls), and create the user using UserLocalServiceUtil (Liferay API)

The main code (of this aproach) is something like this:

- read csv(xls) to a variable reader (Class CsvReader or something else...)
- then execute this code...

User userToCreate = UserLocalServiceUtil.createUser(userId)

...
userToCreate.setEmailAddress(reader.get("email"));
userToCreate.setPassword(reader.get("pass"));
userToCreate.setScreenName(reader.get("ScreenName"));
userToCreate.setActive(true);
...

try {

User createdUser = UserLocalServiceUtil.addUser(userToCreate);

}
catch(Exception ex)
{
//
}


If this is viable to you, tell me something, i can give u some more details.

Hi Eliseu, thanks for reply,

I can do this, i will make a test, but I'm not sure about performance, there are too many users!

regarding performance, this may speed things up a lil

BatchSessionUtil.setEnabled(true);

try {
	// your code here
}
finally {
	BatchSessionUtil.setEnabled(false);
}

Thanks Peter,

I have imported 40.000 users (120.000 records in database, considering tables contact_, group_ e user_) in 2 hours. I think performance was very good.

Hi Gabriel,

I am sure you've gone with the WS approach. I liked the portlet approach as it will greatly improve the performance. But since this is a one time activity, you should go ahead writing a simple java program that does this by iterating thru the records of the excel sheet and uploading the user by invoking the web service.
