Hi, I'm new to Ruby and Rails and trying to use it to work on a project for my website.
I have a Shopify store, which I can access my products.xml feed through the API, Shopify feed sample attached. I have another feed from the wholesaler I use that has the latest stock levels. Whole feed sample attached. The common link between the two is the SKU code, as I added all of the products with the same code. The attribute for the stock level isn't the same. On the wholesale feed it's <stock> with Shopify using <inventory-quantity> I'm trying to work out how to take the wholesale feed, and combine it into my product feed, which I can then regularly apply to my Shopify store to keep it updated with the latest stock levels. I've been reading a lot, testing Nokogiri and the builder, but I'm not sure if I'm going about this the right way. Currently I think the way forward is to parse both feeds into the same MySQL database and then build a new XML file from that to update Shopify. However is there a way that I can have the wholesale XML feed check it's SKU code against my Shopify XML, update the attribute field for stock level and append it to the correct product? My skill level is low, so I'm prepared for this to take awhile, but hoping someone can steer me in the right direction so I'm doing it correctly (keeping in mind that I'm sure there are multiple ways to do this!).
