Hey Danny, I don't have code available that I could let you look at right
now, but I have done something similar.
To do this I made a custom order form for Cartridge using the setting
SHOP_CHECKOUT_FORM_CLASS.
Make it inherit from the default OrderForm and then add a field allowing
the user to select a shipping method:
from cartridge.shop.forms import OrderForm
class CustomOrderForm(OrderForm):
shipping_method = forms.ChoiceField(choices=SHIPPING_CHOICES)
The following will assume you have the checkout steps split.
1. In your shipping handler calculate the cost of each shipping method,
at that point I would store it in the session, since the user hasn't
selected a shipping method yet, don't set the shipping.
2. In the init for your Custom order form check if you are on the
payment step and if the session data that is stored by the shipping
handler, is present, if so update the choices for shipping method to have
their associated costs.
At this point I would probably delete the data from the session in case
the user later goes back in the checkout process and changes their address.
3. Display the shipping method select on the payment screen.
4. In the payment handler do the normal payment stuff, but also call the
Cartridge set_shipping method
^ that's not exactly what you are supposed to do, but I don't think
there is anything preventing you from calling set_shipping not in the
shipping handler.
In my case, I didn't have the checkout steps split and didn't precalculate
the shipping costs, I just let the user see the shipping cost on order
confirm page but I think the above should work to do what you want.
