NAME
Handel::Checkout - Checkout Pipeline Process
SYNOPSIS
use Handel::Checkout;
my $checkout = Handel::Checkout->new({
cart => '122345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876',
phases => [CHECKOUT_PHASE_INITIALIZE, CHECKOUT_PHASE_VALIDATE]
});
if ($checkout->process == CHECKOUT_STATUS_OK) {
print 'Your order number is ', $checkout->order->number;
} else {
...
};
DESCRIPTION
Handel::Checkout is a basic pipeline processor that uses plugins at various phases to perform any work necessary from credit card authorization to order delivery. Handel does not try to be all things to all people needing to place online orders. Instead, it provides a basic plugin mechanism allowing the checkout process to be customized for many different needs.
CONSTRUCTOR
new([\%options])
Creates a new checkout pipeline process and loads all available plugins. new
accepts the following options in an optional HASH reference:
- cart
-
A HASH reference, Handel::Cart object, or a cart id. This will be loaded into a new Handel::Order object and associated with the new checkout process.
See
cart
below for further details about the various values allowed to be passed. - order
-
A HASH reference, Handel::Order object, or an order id. This will be loaded and associated with the new checkout process.
See
order
below for further details about the various values allowed to be passed. - plugins
-
An array reference containing the various namespaces of plugins to be loaded.
my $checkout = Handel::Checkout->new({ plugins => [MyNamespace::Plugins, Other::Plugin] });
- phases
-
An array reference containing the various phases to be executed.
my $checkout = Handel::Checkout->new({ phases => [CHECKOUT_PHASE_VALIDATION, CHECKOUT_PHASE_AUTHORIZATION] });
METHODS
add_handler($phase, \&coderef)
Registers a code reference with the checkout phase specified. This is usually called within register
on the current checkout context:
sub register {
my ($self, $ctx) = @_;
$ctx->add_handler(CHECKOUT_PHASE_DELIVER, \&myhandler);
};
sub myhandler {
...
};
cart
Creates a new Handel::Order object from the specified cart and associates that order with the current checkout process. This is typeically only needed the first time you want to run checkout for a specific cart. From then on, you only need to load the already created order using order
below.
cart
can accept one of three possible parameter values:
- cart(\%filter)
-
When you pass a HASH reference,
cart
will attempt to load all available carts using Handel::Cart::load(\%filter). If multiple carts are found, only the first one will be used.$checkout->cart({ shopper => '12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876', type => CART_TYPE_TEMP });
- cart(Handel::Cart)
-
You can also pass in an already existing Handel::Cart object. It will then be loaded into a new order object ans associated with the current checkout process.
my $cart = Handel::Cart->load({ id => '12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876' }); $checkout->cart($cart);
- cart($cartid)
-
Finally, you can pass a valid cart/uuid into
cart
. The matching cart will be loaded into a new Handel::Order object and associated with the current checkout process.$checkout->cart('12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876');
order
Gets/Sets an existing Handel::Order object with the existing checkout process.
order
can accept one of three possible parameter values:
- order(\%filter)
-
When you pass a HASH reference,
order
will attempt to load all available order using Handel::Order::load(\%filter). If multiple order are found, only the first one will be used.$checkout->order({ shopper => '12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876', id => '11111111-2222-3333-4444-5555666677778888' });
- order(Handel::Order)
-
You can also pass in an already existing Handel::Order object. It will then be associated with the current checkout process.
my $order = Handel::Order->load({ id => '12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876' }); $checkout->order($order);
- order($orderid)
-
Finally, you can pass a valid order/uuid into
order
. The matching order will be loaded and associated with the current checkout process.$checkout->order('12345678-9098-7654-3212-345678909876');
phases(\@phases)
Get/Set the phases active for the current checkout process.
$checkout->phases([
CHECKOUT_PHASE_INITIALIZE,
CHECKOUT_PHASE_VALIDATION
]);
process([\@phases])
Executes the current checkout process pipeline and returns CHECKOUT_STATUS_*.
CONFIGURATION
HandelPluginPaths
This resets the checkout plugin search path to a namespace of your choosing, The default plugin search path is Handel::Checkout::Plugin::*
PerlSetVar HandelPluginPaths MyApp::Plugins
In the example above, the checkout plugin search path will load all plugins in the MyApp::Plugins::* namespace (but not MyApp::Plugin itself). Any plugins in Handel::Checkout::Plugin::* will be ignored.
You can also pass a comma or space seperate list of namespaces.
PerlSetVar HandelPluginPaths 'MyApp::Plugins, OtherApp::Plugins'
Any plugin found in the search path that isn't a subclass of Handel::Checkout::Plugin will be ignored.
HandelAddPluginPaths
This adds an additional plugin search paths. This can be a comma or space seperated list of namespaces.
PerlSetVar HandelAddPluginPaths 'MyApp::Plugins, OtherApp::Plugins'
In the example above, when a checkout process is loaded, it will load all plugins in the Handel::Checkout::Plugin::*, MyApp::Plugins::*, and OtherApp::Plugins namespaces.
Any plugin found in the search path that isn't a subclass of Handel::Checkout::Plugin will be ignored.
