october-catalog

Catalog for OctoberCMS.

Simple catalog for OctoberCMS. Category model is a nested tree and is reorderable.

Components return Collections and Eloquent Models for ease of use in exploring the build of the theme pages. No assumptions are made on display of the catalog.

Categories

To show categories, include the component CategoryList on your page. CategoryList requires no parameters.

...
[CategoryList]
==

Then, in twig template, to get the Root Category collection,

{% set obCategoryList = CategoryList.getRootCategories() %}
{% if obCategoryList.isNotEmpty() %}
<ul>
    {% for obCategory in obCategoryList if obCategory.nestedCount > 0 %}
    <li>{{ obCategory.name }} has {{ obCategory.productCount }} local product(s)</li>
    {% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endif %}

We can get the subcategories of any category by

{{ obCateogry.subcategories }}

which is a collection of Category Model.

We can use CategoryItem to get a single Category from url slug

title = "Category Page"
url = "/category/:slug"

[CategoryItem]
slug = "{{ :slug }}"
==
{% set obCategory = CategoryItem.get() %}
{{ }}

Products

We can get all products for a category with ProductList. ProductList requires no parameters.

{% set obProductList = ProductList.get(obCategory) %}
{% if obProductList.isNotEmpty() %}
<ul>
    {% for obProduct in obProductList %}
	<li>{{ obProduct.name }}</li>
	{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% else %}
<p>No products.</p>
{% endif %}
