Uncaught Client Error (400): The field 'calculated_price' cannot be written to.

[Lewiscowles1986]

Expected behavior

$product->update(); //updates product

Actual behavior

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Client Error (400): The field 'calculated_price' cannot be written to. Please remove it from your request before trying again.
  thrown in /vendor/bigcommerce/api/src/Bigcommerce/Api/Connection.php on line 286

Steps to reproduce behavior

• load product via API (I'm doing this from BigCommerce::getProducts())
• alter $product->categories = [1,2,3]; (they are valid id's for categories that exist)
• $product->save()

I am using PHP in CLI SAPI if that could be the cause. I'm likely going to see if I can patch also...

added the following to $ignoreOnUpdate

        
        'calculated_price',
        'primary_image',
        'downloads',
        'reviews',
);

Seems to do the trick. Not sure how on earth it works for other operations. All these seem like linked fields or calculated property values. Perhaps instead of read-only fields, these could become methods? It's just that it seems like a heap of work to do to emulate a language feature that's not there.

Categories are also much harder to work with compared to product images.
