-Shopping Cart Class
-###################
-
-The Cart Class permits items to be added to a session that stays active
-while a user is browsing your site. These items can be retrieved and
-displayed in a standard "shopping cart" format, allowing the user to
-update the quantity or remove items from the cart.
-
-.. important:: The Cart library is DEPRECATED and should not be used.
- It is currently only kept for backwards compatibility.
-
-Please note that the Cart Class ONLY provides the core "cart"
-functionality. It does not provide shipping, credit card authorization,
-or other processing components.
-

-********************
-Using the Cart Class
-********************
-
-Initializing the Shopping Cart Class
-====================================
-
-.. important:: The Cart class utilizes CodeIgniter's :doc:`Session
- Class <sessions>` to save the cart information to a database, so
- before using the Cart class you must set up a database table as
- indicated in the :doc:`Session Documentation <sessions>`, and set the
- session preferences in your application/config/config.php file to
- utilize a database.
-
-To initialize the Shopping Cart Class in your controller constructor,
-use the ``$this->load->library()`` method::
-
- $this->load->library('cart');
-
-Once loaded, the Cart object will be available using::
-
- $this->cart
-
-.. note:: The Cart Class will load and initialize the Session Class
- automatically, so unless you are using sessions elsewhere in your
- application, you do not need to load the Session class.
-
-Adding an Item to The Cart
-==========================
-
-To add an item to the shopping cart, simply pass an array with the
-product information to the ``$this->cart->insert()`` method, as shown
-below::
-
- $data = array(
- 'id' => 'sku_123ABC',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 39.95,
- 'name' => 'T-Shirt',
- 'options' => array('Size' => 'L', 'Color' => 'Red')
- );
-
- $this->cart->insert($data);
-
-.. important:: The first four array indexes above (id, qty, price, and
- name) are **required**. If you omit any of them the data will not be
- saved to the cart. The fifth index (options) is optional. It is intended
- to be used in cases where your product has options associated with it.
- Use an array for options, as shown above.
-
-The five reserved indexes are:
-
-- **id** - Each product in your store must have a unique identifier.
- Typically this will be an "sku" or other such identifier.
-- **qty** - The quantity being purchased.
-- **price** - The price of the item.
-- **name** - The name of the item.
-- **options** - Any additional attributes that are needed to identify
- the product. These must be passed via an array.
-
-In addition to the five indexes above, there are two reserved words:
-rowid and subtotal. These are used internally by the Cart class, so
-please do NOT use those words as index names when inserting data into
-the cart.
-
-Your array may contain additional data. Anything you include in your
-array will be stored in the session. However, it is best to standardize
-your data among all your products in order to make displaying the
-information in a table easier.
-
-::
-
- $data = array(
- 'id' => 'sku_123ABC',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 39.95,
- 'name' => 'T-Shirt',
- 'coupon' => 'XMAS-50OFF'
- );
-
- $this->cart->insert($data);
-
-The ``insert()`` method will return the $rowid if you successfully insert a
-single item.
-
-Adding Multiple Items to The Cart
-=================================
-
-By using a multi-dimensional array, as shown below, it is possible to
-add multiple products to the cart in one action. This is useful in cases
-where you wish to allow people to select from among several items on the
-same page.
-
-::
-
- $data = array(
- array(
- 'id' => 'sku_123ABC',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 39.95,
- 'name' => 'T-Shirt',
- 'options' => array('Size' => 'L', 'Color' => 'Red')
- ),
- array(
- 'id' => 'sku_567ZYX',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 9.95,
- 'name' => 'Coffee Mug'
- ),
- array(
- 'id' => 'sku_965QRS',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 29.95,
- 'name' => 'Shot Glass'
- )
- );
-
- $this->cart->insert($data);
-
-Displaying the Cart
-===================
-
-To display the cart you will create a :doc:`view
-file </general/views>` with code similar to the one shown below.
-
-Please note that this example uses the :doc:`form
-helper </helpers/form_helper>`.
-
-::
-
- <?php echo form_open('path/to/controller/update/method'); ?>
-
- <table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" style="width:100%" border="0">
-
- <tr>
- <th>QTY</th>
- <th>Item Description</th>
- <th style="text-align:right">Item Price</th>
- <th style="text-align:right">Sub-Total</th>
- </tr>
-
- <?php $i = 1; ?>
-
- <?php foreach ($this->cart->contents() as $items): ?>
-
- <?php echo form_hidden($i.'[rowid]', $items['rowid']); ?>
-
- <tr>
- <td><?php echo form_input(array('name' => $i.'[qty]', 'value' => $items['qty'], 'maxlength' => '3', 'size' => '5')); ?></td>
- <td>
- <?php echo $items['name']; ?>
-
- <?php if ($this->cart->has_options($items['rowid']) == TRUE): ?>
-
- <p>
- <?php foreach ($this->cart->product_options($items['rowid']) as $option_name => $option_value): ?>
-
- <strong><?php echo $option_name; ?>:</strong> <?php echo $option_value; ?><br />
-
- <?php endforeach; ?>
- </p>
-
- <?php endif; ?>
-
- </td>
- <td style="text-align:right"><?php echo $this->cart->format_number($items['price']); ?></td>
- <td style="text-align:right">$<?php echo $this->cart->format_number($items['subtotal']); ?></td>
- </tr>
-
- <?php $i++; ?>
-
- <?php endforeach; ?>
-
- <tr>
- <td colspan="2"> </td>
- <td class="right"><strong>Total</strong></td>
- <td class="right">$<?php echo $this->cart->format_number($this->cart->total()); ?></td>
- </tr>
-
- </table>
-
- <p><?php echo form_submit('', 'Update your Cart'); ?></p>
-
-Updating The Cart
-=================
-
-To update the information in your cart, you must pass an array
-containing the Row ID and one or more pre-defined properties to the
-``$this->cart->update()`` method.
-
-.. note:: If the quantity is set to zero, the item will be removed from
- the cart.
-
-::
-
- $data = array(
- 'rowid' => 'b99ccdf16028f015540f341130b6d8ec',
- 'qty' => 3
- );
-
- $this->cart->update($data);
-
- // Or a multi-dimensional array
-
- $data = array(
- array(
- 'rowid' => 'b99ccdf16028f015540f341130b6d8ec',
- 'qty' => 3
- ),
- array(
- 'rowid' => 'xw82g9q3r495893iajdh473990rikw23',
- 'qty' => 4
- ),
- array(
- 'rowid' => 'fh4kdkkkaoe30njgoe92rkdkkobec333',
- 'qty' => 2
- )
- );
-
- $this->cart->update($data);
-
-You may also update any property you have previously defined when
-inserting the item such as options, price or other custom fields.
-
-::
-
- $data = array(
- 'rowid' => 'b99ccdf16028f015540f341130b6d8ec',
- 'qty' => 1,
- 'price' => 49.95,
- 'coupon' => NULL
- );
-
- $this->cart->update($data);
-
-What is a Row ID?
-*****************
-
-The row ID is a unique identifier that is generated by the cart code
-when an item is added to the cart. The reason a unique ID is created
-is so that identical products with different options can be managed
-by the cart.
-
-For example, let's say someone buys two identical t-shirts (same product
-ID), but in different sizes. The product ID (and other attributes) will
-be identical for both sizes because it's the same shirt. The only
-difference will be the size. The cart must therefore have a means of
-identifying this difference so that the two sizes of shirts can be
-managed independently. It does so by creating a unique "row ID" based on
-the product ID and any options associated with it.
-
-In nearly all cases, updating the cart will be something the user does
-via the "view cart" page, so as a developer, it is unlikely that you
-will ever have to concern yourself with the "row ID", other than making
-sure your "view cart" page contains this information in a hidden form
-field, and making sure it gets passed to the ``update()`` method when
-the update form is submitted. Please examine the construction of the
-"view cart" page above for more information.
