=============================== django SHOP - Simple Variations

This app's purpose is to provide a way to quickly create product variations for most simple cases.

It considers variations as a {label: value} entry in the cart modifiers, so it is perfect for things like differently priced colors, or build-your-own computers for example.

Installation

This requires django SHOP to work (https://github.com/chrisglass/django-shop)

• Add the app to your INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py
• Add shop_simplevariations.cart_modifier.ProductOptionsModifier and shop_simplevariations.cart_modifier.TextOptionsModifier to your SHOP_CART_MODIFIERS setting.
• Add (r'^shop/cart/', include(simplevariations_urls)), to your urls.py just before (r'^shop/', include(shop_urls)),

Your urls.py should look like this:

::

from django.conf.urls.defaults import * from django.contrib import admin

from shop import urls as shop_urls from shop_simplevariations import urls as simplevariations_urls

admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), (r'^shop/cart/', include(simplevariations_urls)), (r'^shop/', include(shop_urls)), )

Usage

• Create an Option group in the admin view
• Bind it to a product
• Add options and the corresponding price to the group.
• When a CartItemOption object is linked to a CartItem, the option's value will be added to the CartItem's price and a corresponding extra field will be added to the Cart/Order.
• Override django-shop's product_detail.html template and add selection elements so that your users can select variations.

The product_detail.html template

The simple product_detail.html that ships with the shop doesn't take variations into consideration.

Therefore you need to override the template. django-shop-simplevariations ships with two templatetags that help creating drop down lists so that a customer can actually chose variation.

First make sure to load the simplevariation templatetags:

::

{% load simplevariation_tags %}

Product detail:

Next create the drop down lists of OptionsGroups and Options:
