Shipping and handling cost dependent of the amount of items

Post by Mirco » 02 Sep 2015, 18:32

Hi
I configure at the moment the shipping cost and need some help.

I would like to calculate the shipping cost dependent of the amount of items at the basket.
For example:
1 item = 1.45 Euro
2 items = 2.60 Euro
3 items = 3.20 Euro
4 items and more 4.50 Euro
Maybe there is something in the documentation but I'm to dumb to find it :?
Or need I to write a Decorator for this behavior?

For linear shipping costs, you could have used "costs per item" for each product but you have a cut after four items so you need to create your own decorator. You can use the "MShop_Service_Provider_Decorator_Costs" as reference.

Thanks!
I have done my one Decorator "Delivery.php". The base was the Costs.php Decorator as suggested.

I changed the function calcPrice( MShop_Order_Item_Base_Interface $basket )
I'm note quite sure if this the right way but it works.

Code: Select all

	public function calcPrice( MShop_Order_Item_Base_Interface $basket )
	{
		$config = $this->getServiceItem()->getConfig();

		if( !isset( $config['delivery.amount'] ) ) {
			throw new MShop_Service_Provider_Exception( sprintf( 'Missing configuration "%1$s"', 'delivery.amount' ) );
		}
		
		$count = 0;

		foreach( $basket->getProducts() as $product )
		{
			$count += $product->getQuantity();
		}
		
		$price = $this->_getProvider()->calcPrice( $basket );

		if ($count == 1) {
			$price->setValue( 0.0);
			$price->setCosts( 1.45);
		} else if ($count == 2) {
			$price->setValue( 0.0);
			$price->setCosts(2.40);
		} else if ($count == 3) {
			$price->setValue( 0.0);
			$price->setCosts(5.0);
		} else if ($count > 3) {
			$price->setValue( 0.0);
			$price->setCosts( 6.8);
		}
		return $price;
	}

Looks good :-D

Code: Select all

$config = $this->getServiceItem()->getConfig();

if( !isset( $config['delivery.amount'] ) ) {
	throw new MShop_Service_Provider_Exception( sprintf( 'Missing configuration "%1$s"', 'delivery.amount' ) );
}
This seems to be unnecessary but you can use the configuration to let the shop owner change the prices himself.

Code: Select all

$price->setValue( 0.0);
$price->setCosts( 1.45);
Decorators shouldn't reset the prices but add their costs like this:

Code: Select all

$price->setCosts( $price->getCosts() + $amount );
Thus, you can stack several decorators which all calculate their additional costs :-)
