Vue Storefront Connector Extension for OpenCart

Compatible with: OpenCart 2.3.0.2

API Base URL: https://site_url/vsbridge/

API Credentials:

Username: OC API Name
Password: OC API Key
Secret Key: Must be generated in VS Bridge module settings
Token Format: JWT

Installation:

Add the following line in the extra section of your OpenCart's composer.json:

Make sure to change the destination folder to match your upload/public folder.

"extra": {
        "filescopier": [
            {
                "source": "vendor/butopea/vue-storefront-opencart-vsbridge/src",
                "destination": "upload",
                "debug": "true"
            }
        ]
    }

Notes about the source and destination paths:

The destination element must be a folder. if the destination folder does not exists, it is recursively created using mkdir($destination, 0755, true)

If the destination folder is not an absolute path, the relative path is calculated using the vendorDir path ($project_path = \realpath($this->composer->getConfig()->get('vendor-dir').'/../').'/';)

The source element is evaluated using the php function \glob($source, GLOB_MARK) and a recursive copy is made for every result of this function into the destination folder

Run the following command to add the required composer packages, including the VS Bridge itself:

composer require butopea/vue-storefront-opencart-vsbridge

Add the URL rewrite rule for VS Bridge (Nginx example):

location /vsbridge {
    rewrite ^/(.+)$ /index.php?route=$1 last;
}

Install the extension in OpenCart (Extensions -> Modules) and generate a secret key

This extension will create its own tables in the database. An overview of the database changes can be found here.

Get the Vue Storefront OpenCart Indexer to import your data into ElasticSearch.

You need to whitelist your indexer's IP address in OpenCart at oc_url/admin/index.php?route=user/api

Tests:

Edit tests/test.php and add the credentials and settings
Run php tests/test.php

Development:

We're currently in the early stages of getting all the features working and would love other OpenCart developers to join in with us on this project!
