Thank you Brian and Trevor for the helpful reply. I like the idea of using Manufacturer as Author, and also uploading the data into the tables directly using the API's. Also, the upcoming Lucene integration sounds like a great feature.

Configuration of KonaKart / Configure Konakart for a bookstore
January 17, 2009, 11:59:51 am
Hi All,
I am looking into using Konakart to host an online bookstore, but there are some queries before I can begin.
1) How can konakart be customized to store author name. since Author to Book is a one-to-many relationship, ideally we should have a seperate Author table, and the author dropdown should be available while adding/editing a product.
2) How can ISBN be stored...I am guessing in one of the five custom fields available for Product
3) How can author and ISBN be included in product search? Is there any information available on how search is implemented in Konakart...1) is it simple sql search 2) is it full-text search 3) or is it Lucene based
Any information on the above will be of great help,
Thank you.
