Content Drivers

Simple Commerce has a concept of 'content drivers'. You can use content drivers to switch out how/where 'things' are stored.

Essentially, a content driver is a class which implements a certain interface. The class has all of the methods needed to allow for Simple Commerce to do its job.

You can configure content drivers for the following:

• Products
• Orders
• Coupons
• Customers

Configuration

 1'content' => [
 2    'orders' => [
 3        'driver' => \DoubleThreeDigital\SimpleCommerce\Orders\Order::class,
 4        'collection' => 'orders',
 5    ],
 6 
 7    'products' => [
 8        'driver' => \DoubleThreeDigital\SimpleCommerce\Products\Product::class,
 9        'collection' => 'products',
10    ],
11 
12    'coupons' => [
13        'driver' => \DoubleThreeDigital\SimpleCommerce\Coupons\Coupon::class,
14        'collection' => 'coupons',
15    ],
16 
17    'customers' => [
18        'driver' => \DoubleThreeDigital\SimpleCommerce\Customers\Customer::class,
19        'collection' => 'customers',
20    ],
21],

As you can see, you can assign a driver class to each of the available driver types. You may also provide any additional configuration values, like collection, which can be used by the chosen driver.

Low-level rundown

For those interested: here's a low-level rundown of how content drivers work:

Whenever a Simple Commerce facade is used, it looks for a binding in the service container attached to the relevant interface/contract (DoubleThreeDigital\SimpleCommerce\Contracts\Product).

When Simple Commerce is booted, it will automatically register a binding between the Simple Commerce interface and the chosen content driver.

Example

Here's a bare bones example to get you started:

  1<?php
