To display the "file upload" field and process the actual CSV import, the following two requirements must be met:
* The developer must create a new system configuration setting that specifies the path to the CSV file.
* The developer must create a new controller action that handles the file upload and import process.
The system.xml file is used to define system configuration settings. The following XML snippet shows how to define a new system configuration setting for the CSV file path:
XML
<config>
<system>
<config>
<shipment_fees_csv_path>/path/to/csv/file</shipment_fees_csv_path>
</config>
</system>
</config>
The Controller\Adminhtml\ShipmentFees controller class is used to handle the file upload and import process.
The following code shows how to create a new controller action that handles the file upload and import process:
PHP
public function uploadAction()
{
$file = $this->getRequest()->getFile('shipment_fees_csv_file');
if ($file->isUploaded()) {
$importer = new ShipmentFeesImporter();
$importer->import($file);
}
return $this->redirect('adminhtml/system_config/edit/section/shipment_fees');
}
