# Overview

This document assumes that you are already familiar with Vue Storefront and its technology stack.
If that's not the case please check [VSF Documentation](https://docs.vuestorefront.io/guide/) and [GitHub repository](https://github.com/DivanteLtd/vue-storefront).

Please also check [Sylius Documentation](https://docs.sylius.com/en/latest/) and [Sylius-Standard](https://github.com/Sylius/Sylius-Standard) if you are new to Sylius.

Depending on your preferences, the plugin can also fully replace [VSF API](https://github.com/DivanteLtd/vue-storefront-api/) - you will only need VSF front app if you choose so.
Sylius ShopBundle is also no longer needed as Vue Storefront will be your new ... Storefront. :)

## We are here to help
This **open-source plugin was developed to help the Sylius community**. If you have any additional questions, would like help with installing or configuring the plugin or need any assistance with your Sylius project - let us know!

to make sure that you fully understand installation steps written below.

We recommend you to disable Sylius ShopBundle as you will no longer need it.
Please refer to [Sylius Documentation - How to disable Sylius shop?](https://docs.sylius.com/en/1.6/cookbook/configuration/disabling-shop-admin-api.html#how-to-disable-sylius-shop) for details.

---

First, add this plugin as dependency to your Sylius project.

```
$ composer require bitbag/vuestorefront-plugin:v2.1.1
```

Add the plugin to `config/bundles.php` (if it's not there already):

```
return [
...
FOS\ElasticaBundle\FOSElasticaBundle::class => ['all' => true],
BitBag\SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin\SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin::class => ['all' => true],
Lexik\Bundle\JWTAuthenticationBundle\LexikJWTAuthenticationBundle::class => ['all' => true],
Gesdinet\JWTRefreshTokenBundle\GesdinetJWTRefreshTokenBundle::class => ['all' => true],

// Optional, for handling CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) requests
Nelmio\CorsBundle\NelmioCorsBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];
```

---

Add few variables to your .env file:

```text
APP_CHANNEL_CODE=""

JWT_SECRET_KEY=%kernel.project_dir%/config/jwt/private.pem
JWT_PUBLIC_KEY=%kernel.project_dir%/config/jwt/public.pem
JWT_PASSPHRASE=bitbag

ELASTICSEARCH_HOST=localhost
ELASTICSEARCH_PORT=9200
ELASTICSEARCH_INDEX=vue_storefront_catalog

// Set transport value to "https" and ssl to "true" when using an ssl connection
ELASTICSEARCH_TRANSPORT=http
ELASTICSEARCH_SSL=false
// Leave blank if authentication is not required
ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME=
ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD=

// Optionally, when using Nelmio CORS Bundle
CORS_ALLOW_ORIGIN=^https?://(localhost|127\.0\.0\.1)(:[0-9]+)?$
```

To generate JWT public and secret keys please run commands below in Sylius' project directory:

```
$ mkdir -p config/jwt
$ openssl genpkey -out config/jwt/private.pem -aes256 -algorithm rsa -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:4096
$ openssl pkey -in config/jwt/private.pem -out config/jwt/public.pem -pubout
```

Then set value of `JWT_PASSPHRASE` environment variable with passphrase that you've entered during running commands above.

---

Next step is to add a following line to the end of the `imports` section in your `config/packages/_sylius.yaml`:

```
- { resource: "@SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin/Resources/config/config.yaml" }
```

It's needed to load some plugin configuration.

---

Now it is needed to edit `config/packages/security.yaml` file.

Add a line below to `parameters` key at the top of the file:

```
bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex: "^/vsbridge"
```

Add a code below to the top of `security -> firewalls` key (an order is really important there):

```
vs_bridge_user_login:
pattern: "%bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex%/user/login"
stateless: true
anonymous: true
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
json_login:
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
check_path: /vsbridge/user/login
password_path: password
success_handler: bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin.lexik_jwt_authentication.handler.authentication_success
failure_handler: bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin.lexik_jwt_authentication.handler.authentication_failure
require_previous_session: false

vs_bridge:
pattern: "%bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex%"
stateless: true
anonymous: true
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
guard:
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
authenticators:
- lexik_jwt_authentication.jwt_token_authenticator
```

So it should look like this:

```
firewalls:
vs_bridge_user_login:
pattern: "%bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex%/user/login"
stateless: true
anonymous: true
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
json_login:
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
check_path: /vsbridge/user/login
password_path: password
success_handler: bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin.lexik_jwt_authentication.handler.authentication_success
failure_handler: bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin.lexik_jwt_authentication.handler.authentication_failure
require_previous_session: false

vs_bridge:
pattern: "%bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex%"
stateless: true
anonymous: true
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
guard:
provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
authenticators:
- lexik_jwt_authentication.jwt_token_authenticator
```

Afterwards add a line below to `security -> access_control` part:
```
- { path: "%bitbag.vue_storefront.security.regex%/user/login", role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
```

---

Now go to `config/routes.yaml` file in your Sylius app and paste there:

```
sylius_vue_storefront_plugin:
resource: "@SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin/Resources/config/routing.yaml"
```

to load configuration of all routes for API endpoints.

---

Create new file `gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token.yaml` (or name it however you like) inside `config/packages` directory and paste inside it:

```
gesdinet_jwt_refresh_token:
firewall: vs_bridge
token_parameter_name: refreshToken
user_provider: sylius_shop_user_provider
```
---

Replace content of your `config/packages/lexik_jwt_authentication.yaml` file with the following configuration:

```
lexik_jwt_authentication:
secret_key: '%env(resolve:JWT_SECRET_KEY)%'
public_key: '%env(resolve:JWT_PUBLIC_KEY)%'
pass_phrase: '%env(JWT_PASSPHRASE)%'

token_extractors:
query_parameter:
enabled: true
name: token
```

---

Afterwards add:

```
translator: { fallbacks: ["%locale%"] }
```

under your `framework` key in `config/packages/framework.yaml` so it should look like this afterwards:

```
framework:
translator: { fallbacks: ["%locale%"] }
secret: '%env(APP_SECRET)%'
form: true
csrf_protection: true
templating: { engines: ["twig"] }
session:
handler_id: ~
```
---

Set content of your `config/fos_elastica.yaml` to the following:

```
imports:
- { resource: "@SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin/Resources/config/indexes/attribute.yaml" }
- { resource: "@SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin/Resources/config/indexes/category.yaml" }
- { resource: "@SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin/Resources/config/indexes/product.yaml" }

fos_elastica:
clients:
default: { host: '%env(ELASTICSEARCH_HOST)%', port: '%env(ELASTICSEARCH_PORT)%' }
```

---

Add a following rule to `fos_rest.format_listener.rules` in your `config/packages/fos_rest.yaml`

```
- { path: '^/vsbridge/.*', priorities: ['json', 'xml'], fallback_format: json, prefer_extension: true }
```

For example the file should look like this afterwards:

```
fos_rest:
exception: true
view:
formats:
json: true
xml: true
empty_content: 204
format_listener:
rules:
- { path: '^/api/.*', priorities: ['json', 'xml'], fallback_format: json, prefer_extension: true }
- { path: '^/vsbridge/.*', priorities: ['json', 'xml'], fallback_format: json, prefer_extension: true }
- { path: '^/', stop: true }
```

---
Go to your `src/Entity/Order/OrderItem.php` file and make it to extend the `OrderItem` entity from our plugin.

Change:
```
use Sylius\Component\Core\Model\OrderItem as BaseOrderItem;
```
to:
```
use BitBag\SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin\Sylius\Entity\Order\OrderItem as BaseOrderItem;
```

---

Copy `etc/vsf-config/local.json` file from this repository to `config/local.json` of Vue Storefront project directory.
In that file you only need to replace every occurence of `` with URL of your store.
You don't have to change anything else as sensible defaults are provided by us, that are proven to work in Vue Storefront v1.12.
If your configuration settings differ from defaults provided with the plugin and you run into problems don't hesitate to create issue on GitHub or contact us directly at [email protected].

## Architecture

VueStorefront fetches data in two ways - **statically** and **dynamically**.
Less frequently updated data is stored in **Elasticsearch**:
1. Products
2. Categories (Sylius taxons)
3. Attributes (Sylius product options)

Everything else is fetched dynamically using provided API, including:
* customers' accounts (Sylius Customer, ShopUser)
* carts, orders (Sylius Order)
* shipping methods
* payment methods
* and more ...

### Elasticsearch

Everything related to Elasticsearch is contained within `Elastisearch`
with the exception of FOS Elastica Bundle configuration which can be found in `src/Resources/config/indexes` directory.
To have the data from Sylius mapped in ES, we have created `Transformer`s providing object translations to ES indexes.
Schema of indexes is described in files stored in `Document` directory.

It's important to note once again that **only Elasticsearch 6 is fully supported currently**.
Support for ES 7 is on the way - once [ruflin/elastica](https://github.com/ruflin/Elastica) and [FOSElasticaBundle](https://github.com/FriendsOfSymfony/FOSElasticaBundle) start supporting it, we will as well.

## Using the plugin within Sylius Standard app, with VSF

It is no surprise that you must have products, taxons etc. within your Sylius instance to benefit from VSF.
Therefore we assume that you have a shop already running.
If it's not the case you might want to run commands below on freshly cloned [Sylius Standard](https://github.com/Sylius/Sylius-Standard) repository:

```
$ composer install
$ yarn install
$ yarn build
$ php bin/console doctrine:database:create
$ php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force
$ php bin/console sylius:fixtures:load
```

.. to add all needed entities from fixtures to database.

Only then you can run

```text
$ php bin/console fos:elastica:populate
```

to populate Elasticsearch indexes and let refresher contained within the plugin to automatically update the data in ES in real time.

### Known issues

#### Translatable trait error during loading fixtures

In case of this error - to be able to load the fixtures, go to the `vendor/bitbag/vuestorefront-plugin/src/Resources/config/indexes/product.yaml` file and comment last line in there (the `defer:true` one).

Then clear the cache, load fixtures and uncomment this line afterwards.

#### Getting 500 error related to taxa (`taxons`)

If you see something like this for example in your admin panel:
```
{
"result": "Variable \"taxons\" does not exist.",
"code": 500
}
```
it means you are using invalid version of `doctrine/inflector` package.

To fix it add a following block into your `composer.json` file:
```
"conflict": {
"doctrine/inflector": "^1.4"
},
```
Make sure that
```
"bitbag/vuestorefront-plugin": "v2.1.1"
```
is present in `require` section in your `composer.json` file and then run:
```
$ composer update
```

## Extending the plugin

### Extending requests, commands/queries

The easiest way to extend the existing request classes and add new properties is to inherit from them.
Because of the way we denormalize incoming requests, you don't need constructor in that class.
You must only:
* add public properties to the class
* override `getCommand()` or `getQuery()` method

Optionally you may want to add constraint to your properties that would validate incoming data.
We use separate .xml files for that as you can see in `src/Resources/config/validation` directory.

For example let's add locale to the coupon:

```
use BitBag\SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin\Request\Cart\ApplyCouponRequest;

final class ApplyLocalizedCouponRequest extends ApplyCouponRequest
{
/** @var string */
pubic $locale;

public function getCommand(): CommandInterface
{
return new ApplyCoupon($this->token, $this->cartId, $this->coupon, $this->locale);
}
}
```

In the same manner the command would need to be created extending the ApplyCoupon class.
Then you only need to change one parameter in the configuration file:

```
bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin:
request_classes:
apply_coupon: \AddLocalizedCouponRequest
```

### Extending handlers

The main way to extend a handler is to decorate it. This makes adding functionality before and after the handler easy.
Please check example of extending view below and/or follow [Symfony Documentation - How to Decorate Services](https://symfony.com/doc/4.4/service_container/service_decoration.html) guide.

However, if you want to change the logic in the handler, you need to overwrite it.
This can be done by registering the new handler with the same service id.
Do not just add it with a new service id otherwise, it will execute both handlers.

### Extending views

When extending the views, two places need to be modified - view class and view factory.

ViewFactories should be decorated just like Handlers mentioned above. You can also completely override them if you prefer to do so.

```
use BitBag\SyliusVueStorefrontPlugin\Factory\Cart\Totals\TotalsViewFactoryInterface;

class NiceTotalViewFactory implements TotalViewFactoryInterface
{
private $innerTotalViewFactory;

public function __construct(TotalsViewFactoryInterface $innerTotalViewFactory)
{
$this->innerTotalViewFactory = $innerTotalViewFactory;
}

public function create(OrderInterface $order): NiceTotalView
{
/** @var NiceTotalView $totalView */
$totalView = $this->innerTotalViewFactory->createNew();

$totalView->nicePersonDiscount = $orderInterface->getNiceDiscount();

return $totalView;
}
}
```

You need to define this service in xml (or yaml) file:

```

```

and change the view class in configuration file:

```
bitbag_sylius_vue_storefront_plugin:
view_classes:
totals: \NiceTotalView
```
