## Setup

Magento 2 Open Source or Commerce edition is required.

### Composer installation

Run the following composer command:

```
composer require opengento/module-minimal-price
```

### Setup the module

Run the following magento command:

```
bin/magento setup:upgrade
```

**If you are in production mode, do not forget to recompile and redeploy the static resources.**

## Features

Define the minimal price availability for a product. The price is capped to the minimal value if any special price,
tier price or catalog rule tries to price down the limit.

### Product Attributes

- `minimal_price`, available in the "Advanced Pricing" group.

If you use the native import export tool provided with Magento, the attribute `minimal_price` is mapped with the field `map_price`.

## Did You Know

### An hiding an never completed feature

While working on this project, it appears that Magento already has an attribute with code "minimal_price".
This attribute exists in Magento since forever. It's actually a system attribute which is not visible through the admin panel.
There is also a few method that refers to this attribute, such as:

- \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product::getMinimalPrice (Called in \Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\FinalPrice::getMinimalPrice)
- \Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Collection::joinMinimalPrice (Never called)

This attribute and methods are not used in the Commerce edition neither.
There is also some trace there: `\Magento\CatalogImportExport\Model\Export\Product`:
```
...
'minimal_price' => 'map_price',
'msrp' => 'msrp_price',
'msrp_enabled' => 'map_enabled',
...
```
This suggests that `minimal_price` is mapped as "Minimum Advertised Price" (MAP). MAP policies are legal documents brands
use to define the lowest legally possible advertised price for a product. It does set the minimum, some penalties may be
applied if a seller violates the MAP.

This module updates and reuse this existing attribute in order to give it a true usage.
