/** * Add a product to a user's wish list * @param String $productPath the product path * @return void */ We first check if the product is valid, by creating a new product model obje
Trang 1The controller also needs to detect if the product is valid; we can do this by linking
it up with the products model, and if it isn't a valid product, the customer should
be informed of this Let's look through a potential addProduct() method for our
wish-list controller.
/**
* Add a product to a user's wish list
* @param String $productPath the product path
* @return void
*/
We first check if the product is valid, by creating a new product model object, which
informs us if the product is valid.
private function addProduct( $productPath )
{
// check product path is a valid and active product
$pathToRemove = 'wishlist/add/';
$productPath = str_replace( $pathToRemove, '',
$this->registry->getURLPath() );
require_once( FRAMEWORK_PATH 'models/products/model.php');
$this->product = new Product( $this->registry, $productPath );
if( $this->product->isValid()
{
// check if user is logged in or not
if( $this->registry->getObject('authenticate')->
loggedIn() == true )
{
//Assuming the user is logged in, we can also store their ID,
// so the insert data is slightly different Here we insert the
// wish into the database
$wish = array();
$pdata = $this->product->getData();
$wish['product'] = $pdata['ID'];
$wish['quantity'] = 1;
$wish['user'] = $this->registry->getObject('authenticate')->
getUserID();
$this->registry->getObject('db')->
insertRecords('wish_list_products', $wish );
// inform the user
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'Product added to your wish list');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'A ' $pdata['name']
Trang 2' has been added to your wish list');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->
buildFromTemplates('header.tpl.php', 'message.tpl.php',
'footer.tpl.php');
}
The customer isn't logged into the website, so we add the wish to the database, using
session and IP address data to tie the wish to the customer.
else
{
// insert the wish
$wish = array();
$wish['sessionID'] = session_id();
$wish['user'] = 0;
$wish['IPAddress'] = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$pdata = $this->product->getData();
$wish['product'] = $pdata['ID'];
$wish['quantity'] = 1;
$this->registry->getObject('db')->
insertRecords('wish_list_products', $wish );
// inform the user
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading',
'Product added to your wish list');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'A ' $pdata['name']
' has been added to your wish list');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->
buildFromTemplates('header.tpl.php', 'message.tpl.php',
'footer.tpl.php');
}
}
The product wasn't valid, so we can't insert the wish, so we need to inform the
customer of this.
else
{
// we can't insert the wish, so inform the user
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'Invalid product');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'Unfortunately, the product you
tried to add to your wish list was invalid, and was not
added, please try again');
Trang 3$this->registry->getObject('template')->
buildFromTemplates('header.tpl.php', 'message.tpl.php',
'footer.tpl.php');
}
}
Add to wish list
To actually add a product to our wish list, we need a simple link within our products
view This should be /wishlist/add/product-path.
<p>
<a href="wishlist/add/{product_path}"
title="Add {product_name} to your wishlist">
Add to wishlist
</a>
</p>
We could encase this link around a nice image if we wanted, making it more user
friendly When the user clicks on this link, the product will be added to their wish
list and they will be informed of that.
Viewing a wish list
As our customers are now able to create their own wish lists, we need to allow them
to view and manage their wish lists.
Controller changes
Our controller needs to be modified to list items in a user's wish list; this involves
detecting if the user is logged in or not, as this will determine the query it must use
to lookup products In addition to a function to display the list to the customer, we
need to detect if the customer is trying to add a product to the list, or if they are
trying to view the list, though a switch statement in the constructor.
private function viewList()
{
$s = session_id();
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$uid = $this->regisry->getObject('authenticate')->getUserID();
if( $this->registry->getObject('authenticate')->loggedIn() )
{
$when = strtotime("-1 week");
$when = date("Y-m-d h:i:s", $when);
Trang 4$sql = "SELECT p.price AS product_price,
v.name AS product_name,
c.path AS product_path
FROM content c,
content_versions v,
content_types_products p,
wish_list_items w
WHERE c.ID=w.product
AND p.content_version=v.ID
AND v.ID=c.current_revision
AND c.active=1
AND ( w.user='{$uid}'
OR ( w.sessionID='{$s}' AND w.IPAddress='{$ip}'
AND w.dateadded > '{$when}' ) )";
}
else
{
$sql = "SELECT p.price AS product_price,
v.name AS product_name,
c.path AS product_path
FROM content c,
content_versions v,
content_types_products p,
wish_list_items w
WHERE c.ID=w.product
AND p.content_version=v.ID
AND v.ID=c.current_revision
AND c.active=1
AND w.user=0
AND ( w.sessionID='{$s}' AND w.IPAddress='{$ip}'
AND w.dateadded > '{$when}' )";
}
$cache = $this->registry->getObject('database')->
cacheQuery( $sql );
if( $this->registry->getObject('database')->
numRowsFromCache( $cache ) == 0 )
{
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'No products');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag('message_heading', 'Unfortunately, there are no
products in your wish-list at this time.');
$this->registry->getObject('template')->
buildFromTemplates('header.tpl.php',
'message.tpl.php',
'footer.tpl.php');
}
else
Trang 5{
$this->registry->getObject('template')->getPage()->
addTag( 'wishes', array( 'SQL', $cache ) );
$this->registry->getObject('template')->
buildFromTemplates('header.tpl.php', 'wishlist.tpl.php',
'footer.tpl.php');
}
}
The highlighted section within that code segment illustrates the difference between
a user being logged out or logged in For a logged-in user, the wish list displays
products both associated to their user account and also ones associated with their
session and IP address details For users who are logged out, it ensures the user ID
is set to 0; otherwise, they may end up viewing other customers' wish-list products
It limits the timeframe for which session-based products are viewed This is because
session IDs and IP addresses are not a secure method to "authenticate" against We
should investigate some form of garbage collection to ensure out-of-date
session-based wish-list products are removed, and also something to detect if the
logged-in user has some wish-list products that are not associated with their user ID, and
transfer them to their user account to prevent them from losing them.
Wish-list view
Although we would need to extend this later, to include a purchase button,
a priority, and quantity, this code would suffice for a basic view to show our
customers their desired products for the time being:
<h2>Your wishlist</h2>
<ul>
<! START wishes >
<li><a href="products/view/{product_path}">{product_name}</a></li>
<! END wishes >
</ul>
Purchases
The purchases aspect of this feature is the most complicated, as it needs to facilitate
both customers making purchases for themselves, and also others making a gift
purchase for someone We can't actually implement this aspect yet, as we don't have
a shopping basket or a complete order process However, we can discuss what will
be involved.
