Migrating IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7 Feature Pack 7 BOD-based Search
Migrate your BOD-based HCL Commerce Search index and configurations to REST-based Search in HCL Commerce version 9.0.0.3+.
Starting with Version 9.0.0.5, HCL Commerce Version 9 uses Solr 7.3.1. Your index data from earlier versions of Solr is unsupported by Solr 7.3.1. This document includes instructions on converting your index data so that it can be used by the new version.
Review the following information to understand what HCL Commerce Search architecture and
functionality has changed in HCL Commerce Version 9.
- BOD-base search is discontinued in HCL Commerce Version 9.
- The HCL Commerce Search server has its own container within your production environment. You deploy your HCL Commerce Search server as part of your CI/CD pipeline.
- The programming model for HCL Commerce Search is changed to coincide with the new build
and deployment process in HCL Commerce Version 9. The basis of the new programming model is to
separate custom HCL Commerce Search assets and configuration settings from the product code,
which reduces the resource cost of maintenance and operation. The following IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7 customizations must be updated for the new programming model:
- Solr runtime is upgraded to 5.5.4, so any customizations to Solr must be updated to follow new programming model.
- HCL Commerce Search utilities are replaced by the container utility service, which includes di-preprocess, di-buildindex, di-calculateprice, and indexprop. The SetupSearchIndex utility is discontinued. The index core directory is now automatically synchronized with the SRCHCONF table and the SRCHCONFEXT table when the HCL Commerce Search server is started. To create a new master core, extension core, or language you must maintain the SRCHCONF and SRCHCONFEXT tables. The workspace core is created automatically if the HCL Commerce Search server detects that the workspace schema is on an authoring environment.
- In HCL Commerce Version 9, the table view is used for preprocessing and index building, so any customizations to preprocessing and index building must be reconfigured according to the new programming guide.
- In HCL Commerce Version 9, the common foundation-based scheduler is enabled on the HCL Commerce Search server. Authoring environments use the scheduler to replicate indexes from authoring environments to the HCL Commerce Search repeater.
- HCL Commerce Version 9 moved to JAX-RS 2.0(JSR-339). Also, the documentation API is Swagger 2.0.
- IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7 used direct JDBC calls, which went through DSL(data service layer) to the database. In HCL Commerce Version 9, JPA 2.1 (EclipseLink) native query is used. Custom queries from previous versions are ported over to the new query service. No additional configure is required.
- In HCL Commerce Version 9, when Price or Inventory are worked as extended cores,
SolrJoinpreserves the document relationship between the mainCatalogEntrycore and the Price and Inventory subcore.MultipleQueryComponentandMultipleFacetComponent, which were used to join or filter the subcores in IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7, are now disabled by default. To handle facet and result fields from extension indexes, a newSearchCatalogEntryExtensionIndexPostprocessormakes a subquery against each of the extension indexes, then joins back with the main index. A new join parameter was also introduced in wc-search.xml. Any IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7 customization to an extension index needs to be implemented to useSolrJoin.Note: If needed, you can restore the previous functionality ofMultipleQueryComponentandMultipleFacetComponent.
Before you begin
- Drop all of the temporary and custom temporary tables from your database, except for the
following temporary tables:
TI_DELTA_CATENTRYTI_DELTA_CATGROUPTI_DELTA_INVENTORY
Your temporary tables use a
TI_prefix. Whereas, your custom temporary tables use aXI_prefix.Changes were made to the temporary tables between the previous versions of HCL Commerce and HCL Commerce Version 9. Failure to drop the temporary tables might result in preprocess errors, for example, SQLSTAE=56098. For more information about temporary HCL Commerce Search tables, see Temporary table schema definition.
Procedure
- Migrate your custom index cores. The following substeps illustrate how to migrate the
extended core
xCatalogEntryfor master catalog10001as an example. These steps should be repeated for all of your custom index cores that you want to migrate. - Reimplement your custom index fields, and your preprocessing and build index scripts.
- Migrate your Search configuration files. Any configuration updates that you made under the IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7 WC_eardir directories must be copied to the corresponding extension directories under the Search_eardir directory in HCL Commerce Version 9. The extention directories arecom.ibm.commerce.foundation-ext and com.ibm.commerce.search-ext.
- Register your custom search profiles by associating them to a REST service.
- Reapply
all of your custom configurations to your wc-search.xml file.Notes:
- Delete all connection configurations that pertain to a remote Solr server. In the HCL Commerce Version 9 Search server, the connection to Solr is embedded.
- Because your cores are now read from the SRCHCONF and SRCHCONFEXT tables, remove all registered cores from your wc-search.xml file.
- Any custom search profiles that are defined in the HCL Commerce server must be redefined in the HCL Commerce Search server extension directory.
- Any custom search profiles that extend a default search profile in the HCL Commerce server must be updated. New default search profiles are introduced in the Search server that contain different names or naming conventions.
- Any custom search profiles that use any of the default search query providers, processors, or search result filters must be updated. New alternatives are introduced in the Search server that contain different names or use different naming conventions.
- Reapply any
custom configurations that you made in the wc-component.xml files under the
com.ibm.commerce.foundation-ext and
com.ibm.commerce.search-ext directories.
Most of the search-related custom properties that you defined in the wc-component.xml file can be reused in the Search server, except for the global price mode property. The price mode configuration is now stored in the STORECONF table. For more information about the search configuration properties in the STORECONF table, see, Search configuration properties in the STORECONF table.
- Migrate any custom object mediators that you made in the IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7
wc-business-objectmediator.xml file to HCL Commerce Version 9
wc-component.xml.
The Search server no longer supports business object mediators. Therefore, any customizations that you applied to the wc-business-object-mediator.xml file must be moved to the wc-component.xml file.
For example, mappings between a
userDatacustom field to an internal index field or database field must now use the correct mappings under the wc-component.xml file. The following example shows how an existinguserDatamapping under the HCL Commerce server wc-business-object-mediator.xml file can be moved into the Search server custom wc-component.xml file. - Reapply any custom database query template (TPL) files.
The Search server supports DSL. However, it does not support EMFs, SDOs, and logical schemas. Therefore, any retrieved data from the database must be parsed by custom code and added into the main response where applicable. Any search-related custom queries can be reused in the Search server. For more information, see Creating a custom query postprocessor.
- The Search server does not support any Query template tags. Each of the query parameters must be passed into the query services as query parameters.
- To allow the customized query to run under workspace schema, append
bull$SCHEMA$to the table. - If the customized query has different query syntax for Oracle, define
a new query name. And in the code, use a different query name after determining the
dbType, for example:<!-- ======================================================================================= --> <!-- Retrieve search configuration for given master catalog by all store's default language --> <!-- ======================================================================================= --> ... BEGIN_SQL_STATEMENT name=SELECT_SRCHCONF_DEFAULT_ORACLE base_table=SRCHCONF sql= SELECT STORECAT.CATALOG_ID, STORE.LANGUAGE_ID, SRCHCONF.INDEXSCOPE, SRCHCONF.CONFIG FROM $SCHEMA$.STORECAT STORECAT, $SCHEMA$.STORE STORE, $SCHEMA$.SRCHCONF SRCHCONF WHERE STORECAT.MASTERCATALOG = '1' AND STORECAT.STOREENT_ID = STORE.STORE_ID AND STORE.STATUS IN (?status?, 1) AND TO_CHAR(STORECAT.CATALOG_ID) = SRCHCONF.INDEXSCOPE AND SRCHCONF.INDEXTYPE = ?indexType? END_SQL_STATEMENTAll customized assets that need to retrieve data from the database, must useSearchQueryServiceto read data, as seen in the following code example:SearchQueryService service = new SearchQueryService(); HashMap parameters = new HashMap(); ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); list.add(getMasterCatalog(coreName)); parameters.put(STR_MASTER_CATALOG_ID, list); list = new ArrayList(); list.add(tokens[1]); parameters.put(STR_INDEX_TYPE, list); list = new ArrayList(); list.add(getLanguageId(coreName)); parameters.put(LANGUAGE_ID, list); List<Object[]> results = service.executeQueryName("SELECT_SRCHCONFEXT", parameters); if (results.size() > 0) { indexSubtype = new ArrayList<String>(); final String STR_INDEXSUBTYPE = "INDEXSUBTYPE"; for (Object[] row : results) { indexSubtype.add((String) row[1]); } imapSearchIndexSubtype.put(coreName, indexSubtype); }
- Migrate your custom Java assets.
Due to the use of containerization, all customizations must be built by WCB script and deployed by your CI/CD pipeline. By default, custom configuration assets can be added under the search-config-ext directory, and custom java assets can be added under search-logic-ext directory. Then, the default WCB script and CI/CD pipeline can build and deploy those assets to Search container.
- Migrate your storefront search services.
In IBM Websphere Commerce Version 7, catalog navigation used the
getDataTag. In HCL Commerce Version 9, you can use the REST-based equivalentRESTTag.Any custom storefront pages that use theCatalogNavigationViewBOD services must be updated to use the corresponding REST services. For example, the following snippet is agetDataBOD search service that is used to get products by category:<wcf:getData type="com.ibm.commerce.catalog.facade.datatypes.CatalogNavigationViewType" var="catalogNavigationView" expressionBuilder="getCatalogEntrySearchResultsByIDView" scope="request" varShowVerb="showCatalogNavigationView" maxItems="100" recordSetStartNumber="0" scope="request"> <c:forEach var="marketingSpotData" items="${marketingSpotDatas.baseMarketingSpotActivityData}"> <c:if test='${marketingSpotData.dataType eq "CatalogEntryId"}'> <wcf:param name="UniqueID" value="${marketingSpotData.uniqueID}"/> </c:if> </c:forEach> <wcf:contextData name="storeId" data="${WCParam.storeId}" /> <wcf:contextData name="catalogId" data="${WCParam.catalogId}" /> </wcf:getData> <c:set var="eSpotCatalogIdResults" value="${catalogNavigationView.catalogEntryView}"/>The following snippet is the equivalent REST-based service:<wcf:getData type="com.ibm.commerce.catalog.facade.datatypes.CatalogNavigationViewType" var="catalogNavigationView" expressionBuilder="getCatalogEntrySearchResultsByIDView" scope="request" varShowVerb="showCatalogNavigationView" maxItems="100" recordSetStartNumber="0" scope="request"> <c:forEach var="marketingSpotData" items="${marketingSpotDatas.baseMarketingSpotActivityData}"> <c:if test='${marketingSpotData.dataType eq "CatalogEntryId"}'> <wcf:param name="UniqueID" value="${marketingSpotData.uniqueID}"/> </c:if> </c:forEach> <wcf:contextData name="storeId" data="${WCParam.storeId}" /> <wcf:contextData name="catalogId" data="${WCParam.catalogId}" /> </wcf:getData> <c:set var="eSpotCatalogIdResults" value="${catalogNavigationView.catalogEntryView}"/>The response data is being formatted in a dot notation response similar to BOD to minimize the changes that are required in the storefront. In some cases, the response is simplified and flattened to simpler name-value pairs, rather than using internal maps to group certain fields.
You can examine the JSON response by printing the response object by using the following code:
<wcf:json object="${catalogNavigationView}"/> - Map your BOD services to REST services.
All BOD search services can be covered by REST search services. There are three main search handlers:
CategoryViewHandler,ProductViewHandler, andSiteContentHandler. Each perform different search functionality. For example,ProductViewHandlercan search by Category, productId, productIds, partNumber, partNumbers, and searchTerm.Use the following table to help map your BOD services to REST services.Table to illustrate mapping between BOD and REST services.

BOD service to follow JSP programming guide. In this JSPF file,
searchHostName,searchContextPathare defined, so in the JSP where you want to call search rest, this variable could be used directly. - Using the mapping between BOD with search rest, find the equivalent rest service, then
change
getDataTagtoRESTtag. - With BOD request, store side could use
CatalogNavigationViewTypenoun to retrieve needed object from the response of BOD request, this noun basically represents a business response of a catalog browsing request.
- Import EnvironmentSetup.jspf in the page where you used to call
BOD service to follow JSP programming guide. In this JSPF file,
- Map your BOD search profiles to REST search profiles. The following table illustrates the mapping between the search profiles that are used by the
CatalogNavigationViewBODservices and the corresponding REST search profiles. There are several factors that differentiate search profiles from each other. When you compare search profiles, consider the following factors.- Query fields
- Controls the search scope.
- Results fields
- Controls the returned fields.
- Expression providers
- Contributes to the selection criteria object.
- Preprocessors
- Prepares the final search expression object.
- Postprocessors
- Mediates the search response and contributes to the final response object.
