GoCart is a CodeIgniter based Shopping Cart. The goal of GoCart is not to add an enormous number of features, but to build an easy to use, easy to customize shopping cart. We have packed in a nice feature set and plan on refining and adding more. Refer http://gocartdv.com/features for more details.
This git repository helps you get up and running quickly a GoCart installation on OpenShift. The backend database is MySQL and the database name is the same as your application name (using $_ENV['OPENSHIFT_APP_NAME']). You can name your application whatever you want. However, the name of the database will always match the application so you might have to update .openshift/action_hooks/build.
Create an account at http://openshift.redhat.com/
Create a php-5.3 application (you can call your application whatever you want)
rhc app create -a GoCart -t php-5.3
Add MySQL support to your application
rhc app cartridge add -a GoCart -c mysql-5.1
Add this upstream GoCart repo
cd GoCart
git remote add upstream -m master git://github.com/IndianECommerceDevelopers/GoCart-example.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master
# note that the git pull above can be used later to pull updates to GoCart
Then push the repo upstream
git push
That's it, you can now checkout your application at (default admin account is admin/OpenShiftAdmin):
http://GoCart-$yournamespace.rhcloud.com
NOTES:
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/deploy: This script is executed with every 'git push'. Feel free to modify this script to learn how to use it to your advantage. By default, this script will create the database tables that this example uses.
If you need to modify the schema, you could create a file
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/alter.sql and then use
GIT_ROOT/.openshift/action_hooks/deploy to execute that script (make sure to
back up your application + database w/ 'rhc app snapshot save' first :) )
GoCart Security: If you're doing more than just 'playing' be sure to edit encryption_key in the php/gocart/config/config.php and modify You can refer to CodeIgniter Site for Encryption Key
I am maintaining another Forked Repository (https://github.com/IndianECommerceDevelopers/GoCart) where I have implemented certain additional features like
- Social Login(customer can login using Facebook, Google or Yahoo Account). 2) Reply_to Address 3) Custom Product Size 4) Save Shipping/Billing Address,etc,.
If you are interested in any of these features then you can fork/check my repository at (https://github.com/IndianECommerceDevelopers/GoCart)
