Commerce Migrate is an extension of the excellent Migrate Project allowing its full capabilities to be used with Commerce entities like product, customer profile, etc. Commerce Migrate includes a submodule, Commerce Migrate Ubercart, which can import an Ubercart D6 or D7 database and turn it into a Drupal Commerce store.
In this screencast I give the basics of how to set up a migration.
- Read the Commerce Migrate Ubercart README.txt.
- Delete all existing product types in your commerce install. If you have products, line items, or orders, make sure they're gone first.
- Create a key in the settings.php $databases array that will allow Drupal to connect to the database you will be importing from. This might look like:
$databases['ubercart']['default'] = array (
'driver' => 'mysql',
'database' => 'ubercart',
'username' => 'root',
'password' => '',
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '',
); - Visit Commerce Migrate Ubercart Options at admin/content/migrate/ubercart_migration_options and enter the information required there. (If the current Drupal install is a D7 Ubercart site, you can just use 'default' as the key. That, however, will make a bit of a mess as you'll have to figure out how to get rid of all the ubercart installation tables and such.)
- Visit admin/content/migrate and run the CommerceMigrateUbercartProductType migration, which will create migrations for products and product display nodes.
- Run the rest of the migrations, probably in this order: Customer Billing Profile, Product, Node, Order, Line Item
