MSI

Project Board | GitHub | Slack

Magento Coordinator: Igor Minialilo

  • After recent architectural discussions with Anton Kril, we applied changes to Inventory Configuration interfaces. Sergey Mutaf (@seruymt) is working on this story. See a working prototype in this PR: https://github.com/magento-engcom/msi/pull/1553 The main idea is CQRS segregation for Read/Command scenarios adding mapping Inventory scopes to Magento scopes. As the result MSI supposed to introduce own infrastructure and storage mechanism for inventory configuration options and finally would be decoupled from dependencies on Legacy CatalogInventory module APIs.
  • Developers from FireBear Studio prepared deep dive analytics of Magento MSI and how its release will impact other Multi Stock extensions developed by other vendors: https://firebearstudio.com/blog/magento-2-multi-source-inventory-msi.html
  • In the Thursday Grooming meeting, we decided that similar issue with Full Page Cache invalidation https://github.com/magento-engcom/msi/issues/1535 are not bugs to be fixed and could be considered as a behavior by design, as fpc invalidation could introduce drastic performance degradation for products being ordered frequently
  • We are completing work for Grouped product Multi-Source Inventory support. Functionality to be presented next Friday. Finalizing work on an issue getting products back to stock (compensation reservation creation) when order is canceled: https://github.com/magento-engcom/msi/issues/1580 This issue affects both Configurable and Grouped products.

  • August 22, 2018 Meeting Minutes
  • Continued discussion on extension versioning presented by Roman Goncharuk(@rgoncharuk).
  • Discussed how to eliminate protectedfrom Magento without breaking extensions, presented by Olga Kopylova (@buskamuza), Michael Slabko. Determined to stop prohibiting removal of protected in private API. This should be validated on Marketplace extensions. In some cases, removal of protected in public API should be analyzed and allowed too.
  • Discussed DevDocs embedded in code repositories, presented by Jeff Matthews. Determined to keep docs in the code base (git repo). Content will be pulled and added to DevDocs. Follow up actions include implementing a prototype, guidelines, and more.
  • Discussed the proposal for adding a composer update lookahead to resolve root conflicts for review: PR#18 by Peter Dohogne
  • Discussed throwing exception if an invalid method if called instead of silently returning wrong values: https://github.com/magento/magento2/pull/12652 Determined to add guidelines on throwing exceptions.
  • Mergedhttps://github.com/magento-engcom/php-7.2-support/pull/135 from Patrick McLain (@pmclain). Now Magento 2.3 uses Sodium for Extensions that encrypt their data are encouraged to re-encrypt user data by implementing an upgrade patch. Documentation will be provided at a later date.
