    uCommerce Razor examples - working with the Basket

    Hi,

    Are there any examples available on how to use uCommerce exclusively with Razor. I have developed menu, Category and Product pages with Razor and I am now stuck trying to work with products adding to a cart/basket. I installed the sample site, however it is all built using XSLT.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Kind Regards,

    Adam

    I've decided to use Rest Extension methods (/Base) to enable adding products to the Basket and these will be called asychronously wherever an add to cart option is provided. The following method is being used to add a product to the Basket. The problem that I am having is that the basket remains empty after a call to this method.

    [RestExtensionMethod()]
            public static string Add(int ProductId) 
            {
                var catalog = ProductCatalog.All().Where(pc => pc.Name == "misiu").SingleOrDefault();
                var product = Product.All().Where(p => p.ProductId ==  ProductId).SingleOrDefault();   
             SiteContext.Current.CatalogContext.CurrentCatalogName = "misiu";
                SiteContext.Current.OrderContext.GetBasket().PurchaseOrder.AddProduct(catalog, product, 1);

    Does the Basket need to be explictly initialised? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can't find any documentation as a reference other than the API reference docs.

    Regards,
    Adam

    For reference, the Basket needs to be explictly saved for the contents to persist. This is achieved by calling the following:

    SiteContext.Current.OrderContext.GetBasket().Save();

    The Basket is saved on a per user/browser basis by way of a cookie identifying the user. The call to GetBasket() creates a PurchaseOrder but the call to Save() actually persists any products added to the Basket to the OrderLines table, which is associated with a PurchaseOrder by OrderId.

    Regards,

    Adam

    The article 3 Steps To Managing Multiple Line Items As One describes various techniques for working with the basket.
