Add dynamic family filter option based on updated products to optimize large catalog import

[claudio-ferraro]

Problem

For catalogs with many product families (e.g., 936 families), the Akeneo product import processes all families sequentially, even when only a few products have been updated. This results in unnecessarily long import times.

Solution

Added a new option Dynamic Family Filtering that queries Akeneo for products updated within the configured "Updated Mode" period, extracts their family codes, and only imports those families.

How it works

1. Before import starts, the DynamicFamilyFilter service queries Akeneo API for updated products and product models
2. Extracts unique family codes from the results
3. Intersects with the existing family list (after excluded families are removed)
4. Only matching families are processed

Configuration

Stores > Configuration > Catalog > Akeneo Connector > Products Filters > Dynamic Family Filtering

The feature uses the existing "Updated Mode" settings (e.g., "Since Last N Hours", "Since Last N Days", etc.)

Example

• Catalog: 936 families
• Updated Mode: "Since Last 1 Hour"
• Products updated: 5 (across 5 different families)
• Result: Only 5 families are imported instead of 936
