New Open Source Shopping Cart

2011-02-15 Thread Steve Bryant

I recently released a beta of a new free and open source shopping cart that I 
have created. It is slim on features, but built to be very easy to customize.

For example, you can use externally defined products (even from multiple 
sources) and it is very easy to add fields to any existing tables.

Blog entry:
http://www.bryantwebconsulting.com/blog/index.cfm/2011/2/8/New-Open-Source-ColdFusion-Shopping-Cart

Docs:
http://www.bryantwebconsulting.com/docs/cart/

RiaForge:
http://startercart.riaforge.org/

It runs on my new Neptune framework, so that is required to use it.
http://www.bryantwebconsulting.com/docs/neptune/
http://neptune.riaforge.org/

I look forward to any feedback.

Thanks!

Steve

Welcome back.

Yup.  Visit https://sourceforge.net/projects/openbizservices/, sign up and
send me your unix ID offline so I can add you to the project.  We are
getting close to needing some developer help.  And if you want to take a
stab at Archeticture, I've got a draft that is almost ready for some serious
repair.

Open Source Shopping Cart Update

2005-12-03 Thread Andy
I have opened up a project on SourceForge to use to manage the development
of the application.  Those who are interested in participating, please go
to:
 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/openbizservices/
 
register, and send me your unix ID so that I can add you to the project.  I
will email you back when I've added you.
 
We will use this site for managing the development and use
http://www.cfdeveloper.co.uk/ for hosting the resulting code for
demonstration purposes.  I've started a couple of discussion threads that we
need to start making some decisions on, so I'd appreciate any and all input.
 
Thanks,
Andy

well thats kinda nuts...

Given the responces that we can't agree on how to did should reaffirm the
fact that it should be made in as simple a way as possible, even if that
means no cfcs(which I vote for cfc's) but if it's simple enough then its
just a simple matter of moving the queries to cfcs or custom tags or
whatever you want. If its in 00 then your SOL on making it how you want.

And yeah it should be modular (hence why cfc's should be used) but the
definition of modular doesnt eq 00

Open Source Shopping Cart Architecture

2005-11-16 Thread Andy
I am posting this in CF-Talk versus the Shopping Cart forum becuase
1.  Architecture discussion may be interesting to those not interested
in Cart
2.  Those not interested in Cart may wish be post opinion (please!)
 
Lets move beyond terms  OO or not OO and get to a specific architecture.
Let me be the first to expose my ignorance and propose the following for
comment:

*   Development will be based off of CFMX 7.0, or whatever the current
version is once we complete the architecture plans. 

*   We use CFC's, with exposed CFC's representing business, real life,
objects such as Order, Item, User, etc.  This implies that we may decide to
build base components such as controllers that Users will not be able to
call.  Since I don't reallly understand what a controller is, I can't go any
deeper then this. But I thought the term was cool... 

*   Objects can be sent either pre-defined structures or XML.  Agreement
to formats will be later part of discussion 

*   The first person using XML will submit the drafts of both the XML
and the code to convert the XML to non-xml format.  We will plan for the
likihood that this will be needed, just don't have to build it now. 

*   Objects will return the same format that they are sent 

*   Objects and their methods are designed assuming that they are not
persisted 

*   Object methods are designed to complete a single business task (OK
this might be obvious, but I've had a few glasses of port...) 

*   Objects are designed to enable customization without touching base
code, minimizing impact on upgrading to later versions 

*   Objects will NEVER enable output (once debugged, of course!) 

*   Objects will be secured via the Roles attribute, which implies
that CFLoginUser has been executed prior to an object being called.  This
is likely to translate into the need for a User object, which is probably a
good idea anyway. Folks who wish to use alternative security can pre-login
users with all possible roles that their Users may require 

*   Objects will NOT test for required variables or variable
formats(date, string, integer, you get the point), except as noted below,
which means that native CFMX errors will be thrown if required formats are
not followed.  Code can be extended as noted above if specific
usage/implementation requires more User Friendly error messages 

*   All database activity will be through stored procedures to
completely decouple the application from the underlying database system.  If
you don't like our database design, need to denormalize for perforance, or
need to add attributes, you will be able to do so without complicating
upgrading to later versions. Performance will be improved by enabling even
complex, multi-table adds and updates to be performed with one SQL call 

*   All calls to the stored procedures will use CFQueryParam.  Native
CFMX errors will be thrown.  Spoofers be damned 

*   All calls to store procedures will include a User Name and Password,
so if User required security at DB level, OOTB (Out Of The Box) solution
will support

Based off of these requirements, each CFC would have the following
design(items in , replace with appropriate Object Name or requested
path\name):
 
Something.cfc extends(insert extended CFC here if applicable)
 
   1.  instance = struct new
   2.  instance.objObjectName = createObject( ...) for each Has A
relationship.   Do not duplicate object if it is required in multiple
places(e.g. item in an order)
 
Function Init
arguments config
 
1.  move arguments.config to structure
 
Return This
 
Function addXML method  access=Public roles=addSomething
arguments xmlInput - an XML document in defined format
 
   Return  moveToXML(addObject(moveSomethingFromXML(arguments.xmlInput))
 
Function updateXML method access=Public roles=updateSomething
arguments xmlInput - an XML document in defined format
 
   Return
moveSomethingToXML(updateObject(moveSomethingFromXML(arguments.xmlInput))
 
Function moveSomthingFromXML method access=Public (to allow for when
Something is the other side of a Has A relationship and therefore is an
variable object within another object)
arguments xmlInput
 
   ! Remember that this won't be coded until someone has use for
XML
 
1.  Set local variable Data as a structure
2.  Move standard data elements to Data
  3. If instance.Config not defined and xml\Config is defined
  3.1  Move xmlInput\config to instance.config (allow single call of
object to perform all required tasks.  This will be an include so that it
needs to be created only once for all objects)
4.  If Something object extends another thing 
4.1 instance.data.extended node = xmlmoveextended
NameToXml(argumetns.xmlInput)
5. If Something object has a Has A relationship, for each
relationship:
5.1  variables.data.has a node

Re: Open Source Shopping Cart Architecture

2005-11-16 Thread Cutter (CF-Talk)
Looks great. Only two things I might have issue with:

1.  Only writing for CFMX 7 will alienate the many out there who finally 
moved to 6.1 (once achieving corporate approval) or who have moved to 
BlueDragon. An option within the install to define the server 
environment can enable/disable features that might be version specific 
(like Flash or XForms or CFDocument).

2.   Use of stored procedures will alienate anyone using MySQL prior to 
version 5. Many shops may not upgrade for a year or more to guarantee 
(in their minds) stability as well as testing (kinda the same reasoning 
you may night want to write exclusively for MX 7...). I would suggest a 
DAO architecture that you could then extend for different database 
platforms (MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, etc.) and include the need within the 
install to define the db platform being used. A good example of this can 
be seen by DAO CFC's written by CFCCreator.

I would also suggest defining some basic coding guidelines. Code 
indentation, variable naming conventions, db table and column naming

Looks great. Only two things I might have issue with:

1.  Only writing for CFMX 7 will alienate the many out there who finally
moved to 6.1 (once achieving corporate approval) or who have moved to
BlueDragon. An option within the install to define the server environment
can enable/disable features that might be version specific (like Flash or
XForms or CFDocument).

Hadn't thought of this.  What do we loose besides these?  Since these
are output related, I don't see any immediate issue with this.

2.   Use of stored procedures will alienate anyone using MySQL prior to 
version 5. Many shops may not upgrade for a year or more to guarantee (in
their minds) stability as well as testing (kinda the same reasoning you may
night want to write exclusively for MX 7...). I would suggest a DAO
architecture that you could then extend for different database platforms
(MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, etc.) and include the need within the install to
define the db platform being used. A good example of this can be seen by DAO
CFC's written by CFCCreator.

Another great catch.  What's DAO architecture?

I would also suggest defining some basic coding guidelines. Code
indentation, variable naming conventions, db table and column naming
conventions, documentation specifications (I suggest JavaDoc), etc. This
will keep everyone on the same sheet of music, make code review and revision
easier, and implement some design consistency to make final packaging much
cleaner.

Why don't you take a shot at laying this out in a separate email.  What
is JavaDoc?

2005-11-15 Thread Snake
If a cart is properly written, you shouldn't need to understand or change
the code to use, it should work out of the box.
So whetehr or not it uses CFC's should be neithe rhere nor there. As I state
dpreviously, most people who us ethe cart will want to use it out of the box
and and wont even want to look at the code. Those who want to get dirty in
the code and change it are most likley going to be capable of doing so.
Good documentation should also make it posisble for anyone to make minor
modifications.

Personally, I don't think that it would be good to go 00 at all.
After all there are very few people who ACTUALLY use 00 and I see this as a
2 fold project, one to get us a good cart system and two to help get a few
people over to cfm and lets be real, probably 95% of the people who would
use this couldn't write their own cfc and sure it's easy to tell them to go
learn but reality says they won't and they will go over to php and use a
freebie over there.

Hell if it was strict 00 I probably wouldn't even use it!!

I agree it would be cool but I don't see a point in making it so 5% of the
people could use it.
If you do that then might as well make it only operate on computes that are
using 2 monitors.

If it's made decently then the eletists can spend a few hours on thier own
and make it 00.

I think the important parts are that it should look good, be safe (form
cleaning up and such), be secure and be able to plug it right in and have it
work within a few minutes and have the ability for the programmer to
customize it how they want without having to learn anything major and yes 00
is a major thing.

Cartweaver is a good example, you can plug it in and in a few minutes have
it working but it's also $250 and not in cfcs and there are some security
concerns but the example is good because you can just use it or customize
it without learning 00 or fusebox or whatever.

And in these times where if the programmer has to spend a ton of time
learning it or whatever they will just go to yahoo stores or miva merchant
or some crap like that.

My daddy always told me if you're going to do a job then you should do it

definitely worth while to make this an OO application. It is actually easier
(by far) to modify and extend a well documented OO app over a procedural
app. It is easier to design and apply extension modules/components. It is
easier to track your program flow. Using DAO CFC's will allow you to extend
the app from a multitude of database platforms. A complete separation of the
business logic from you control and presentation layers will force a
developer to concentrate on the data to be presented rather than the
presentation (which could then be output in HTML, XHTML, XML, or even
Flash). And, since you are already planning on using CFC's, a loosely
coupled MVC OO approach will break down the project into easily defined
subprojects. This type of approach would also make it very easy to port into
most existing frameworks (Mach II, Fusebox, Model-Glue, etc.)

Would an OO approach alienate a majority of users? I don't think so. If you
offer a superior product, with the features they want, then the users will
take the time to read documentation to make it work for them. 
These aren't advanced programming concepts, they're good programming
practices. Those of you looking to turn this into a learning experience will
gain a much better learning experience by moving forward from an OO
standpoint.

A lot of the stuff you are saying I agree with but I just think making it 00 is 
just too much, cfc and structured yes but making a product that to 5% (probably 
a very high estimate) of a user base just isn't good marketting.

A good example of this is Plum, what if they only made it available on linux? 
And if you wanted to use it you had to be running linux that wouldn't be 
considered smart marketing.  They already make it windows only and lose a 
good chuck of market, so I guess my thought is why lose a massive chunk of the

Re: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-15 Thread Ken Ferguson
Even further than that. Some people will want to do something with it 
that nobody else in the world does with a shopping cart. That's why it's 
important to make it using the most easily extendable and 
modfication-friendly codebase as possilbe. Also, you leave the door open 
for others to easily add modules that aren't really store modules, but 
that a store owner may require. I hate buzz-words and so I'm not going 
to get into OO or not OO or anything like that, but when you build 
something like this, it's a good idea to make it as modular as possible 
so that it is as useful as possible to more people.

Given the responces that we can't agree on how to did should reaffirm the fact 
that it should be made in as simple a way as possible, even if that means no 
cfcs(which I vote for cfc's) but if it's simple enough then its just a simple 
matter of moving the queries to cfcs or custom tags or whatever you want. If 
its in 00 then your SOL on making it how you want.

And yeah it should be modular (hence why cfc's should be used) but the

Not a lot of progress happening so far. All I can see is discussion over
whether to use OO or CFC's.

(OO - object orientated ??)

Were I not in the process of transitioning out of one position, 
relocating, and into a new position, then I would be offering my 
assistance immediately. However, as I won't have an internet connection 
for a while (much less the packing, moving, unpacking, etc.) I'll have 
to wait until I'm settled. I did want to take a moment to throw in my $.02.

My daddy always told me if you're going to do a job then you should do 
it right the first time. Although the initial planning may take longer 
it is definitely worth while to make this an OO application. It is 
actually easier (by far) to modify and extend a well documented OO app 
over a procedural app. It is easier to design and apply extension 
modules/components. It is easier to track your program flow. Using DAO 
CFC's will allow you to extend the app from a multitude of database 
platforms. A complete separation of the business logic from you control 
and presentation layers will force a developer to concentrate on the 
data to be presented rather than the presentation (which could then be 
output in HTML, XHTML, XML, or even Flash). And, since you are already 
planning on using CFC's, a loosely coupled MVC OO approach will break 
down the project into easily defined subprojects. This type of approach 
would also make it very easy to port into most existing frameworks (Mach 
II, Fusebox, Model-Glue, etc.)

Would an OO approach alienate a majority of users? I don't think so. If 
you offer a superior product, with the features they want, then the 
users will take the time to read documentation to make it work for them. 
These aren't advanced programming concepts, they're good programming 
practices. Those of you looking to turn this into a learning experience 
will gain a much better learning experience by moving forward from an OO 
standpoint.

My two $.02. Hope it helps.

If you make it 00 then it will alienate a good majority of users, needs to be

Some of the xml stuff is over most peoples heads, maybe we could end up with 2 
versions and the 2nd can be a paid version with all that stuff.
I know a lot of people will want to show off their skills but i think it needs 
to be user friendly enough for beginners to use it since they will be using it 
probably the most and for those ppl we try to get from php and such it will be 
an easier conversion.

Have you noticed the ppl (including myself) that are volenteering aren't the 
experts on here? If it's gunna be 00 then you lose those helpers and since 
most of the higher end coders on here won't be helping so who's gunna go in 
and make all our stuff 00?

other than that good plan.
While you are doing that I will start on the base code and css.
What are your opinions on that?
I personally am using xhtml strict and mostly cssp on my current stuff, I 
don't mind being in charge of the base code stuff but lets agree on what to 
start with. I'll be more than happy to take each persons code and make it 
validate and all that good cross browser stuff.

Here are my thoughts:
1. OO
2. Design to be extended without taking out of upgrade path(pre  post
processing steps)
3. Provide DLL's
4. XML in and out with appropriate XSD's
5. Sample HTML and/or XSLT with CSS that can be used as a base 

Starting with someone elses data model is like starting coding without
requirements. If we want to do this right, we need to start at the
beginning. If we all chip in with the IC that we have this shouldn't take
too much time to get through the documentation phase. At each stage, we
create a forum for the individual parts, each of use signs up for those that
they can contribute to, someone takes lead for each...We finish then move to
the next step of the design. Continue until done, then move to Detailed
Design. While Use Cases are being created, the Archeticts can start
creating the framework within which detailed design and coding will operate
within.

Bottom line, this needs to be run like a large scale development project.

Re: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-14 Thread dave
Personally, I don't think that it would be good to go 00 at all.
After all there are very few people who ACTUALLY use 00 and I see this as a 2 
fold project, one to get us a good cart system and two to help get a few people 
over to cfm and lets be real, probably 95% of the people who would use this 
couldn't write their own cfc and sure it's easy to tell them to go learn but 
reality says they won't and they will go over to php and use a freebie over 
there.

Hell if it was strict 00 I probably wouldn't even use it!!

I agree it would be cool but I don't see a point in making it so 5% of the 
people could use it.
If you do that then might as well make it only operate on computes that are 
using 2 monitors.

If it's made decently then the eletists can spend a few hours on thier own 
and make it 00.

I think the important parts are that it should look good, be safe (form 
cleaning up and such), be secure and be able to plug it right in and have it 
work within a few minutes and have the ability for the programmer to customize 
it how they want without having to learn anything major and yes 00 is a major 
thing.

Cartweaver is a good example, you can plug it in and in a few minutes have it 
working but it's also $250 and not in cfcs and there are some security concerns 
but the example is good because you can just use it or customize it without 
learning 00 or fusebox or whatever.

And in these times where if the programmer has to spend a ton of time learning 
it or whatever they will just go to yahoo stores or miva merchant or some crap 
like that.

RE: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-14 Thread Paul
With respect, I couldn't disagree more.  There may be no better way to learn
OO than by example, and once you grasp some basics you become immediately
aware of what you've been missing and how nice it is to have everything in
its proper place.  Plus if it were done properly in OO, it would get more
use by more serious developers, who would then enhance and release
improvements back to the community.  IMO the project would be pointless to
do unless it were done OO.

2005-11-14 Thread John C. Bland II
Fella's, I have to back out of working on this project (conflict of
interest; my company is building an enterprise e-comm project). Sorry.

I do want to respond to the OO portion before I completely sign off of this
task.

2cents willRespond=only if necessary
Making it OO will only alienate those who want to do some sort of custom
development and don't know OO. If they want to do something custom then they
should read the docs (that should be well thought out and written). As far
as the updates they'll desire, it shouldn't be anything more than graphical
or at best a config change. If they are revamping the entire thing or even a
healthy portion they are only using the cart as a guide.

If it were strict OO with a config file setup the developer would only need
to touch the css, images, and config file. Maybe an occassional include
somewhere for a layout fix. osCommerce is a plug-n-play system. ZenCart is a
plug-n-play system (can update just about everything from the admin so no
code knowledge is needed). All of these free systems are there for you to
drop in, customize, and launch. If you want something custom, starting from
scratch would probably be best. I mean, using MVC would seem easier for me
to come in and customize than procedural. All you'd need to do is update the
views and you're done, unless you're overhauling the functionality in some
way.

I think it boils down to who this product is for. Is it for developers or
e-commerce clients? If its geared towards developers, do what's best for
them. If its geared towards clients, do what's best for them.

soapbox
It's my opinion that this project is lacking focus in 2 very import areas
and John touches on one of them.

First, who is the intended audience of this project? Define that and many
questions will start to be answered.

Second, what's its purpose? Or said another way, what is its functionality,
is it going to include the kitchen sink or not?

As Dana said on the forum, we're arguing over whether to use pencils or pens
and we haven't even decided what we're drawing.

There needs to be a project manager/project owner who helps define these
questions and then has measurable milestones so such a diverse and dispersed
group will even know what is/isn't being accomoplished.

Maybe this is being too much of a PHB on the list here, but I think this is
doomed to fail if some structure isn't put in place.

And ya' know, if you don't agree with what's done, that doesn't stop others
from doing their own (e.g. one completely OO and one not).

  If it's made decently then the eletists can spend a few hours on thier

  I think the important parts are that it should look good, be safe (form
  cleaning up and such), be secure and be able to plug it right in and
 have it
  work within a few minutes and have the ability for the programmer to
  customize it how they want without having to learn anything major and
 yes 00
  is a major thing.
 
  Cartweaver is a good example, you can plug it in and in a few minutes
 have
  it working but it's also $250 and not in cfcs and there are some
 security
  concerns but the example is good because you can just use it or
 customize
  it without learning 00 or fusebox or whatever.
 
  And in these times where if the programmer has to spend a ton of time
  learning it or whatever they will just go to yahoo stores or miva
 merchant
  or some crap like that.

Here are my thoughts:
1.  OO
2.  Design to be extended without taking out of upgrade path(pre  post
processing steps) 3.  Provide DLL's 4.  XML in and out with appropriate
XSD's 5.  Sample HTML and/or XSLT with CSS that can be used as a base 

Starting with someone elses data model is like starting coding without
requirements.  If we want to do this right, we need to start at the
beginning.   If we all chip in with the IC that we have this shouldn't
take
too much time to get through the documentation phase.  At each stage, we
create a forum for the individual parts, each of use signs up for those
that they can contribute to, someone takes lead for each...We finish
then move to the next step of the design.  Continue until done, then
move to Detailed Design.  While Use Cases are being created, the
Archeticts can start creating the framework within which detailed design
and coding will operate within.

Bottom line, this needs to be run like a large scale development
project.

Re: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-14 Thread dave
I see it as making it useful for the mass amount of the users.

I don't see how making it 00 for the 10 people who want it 00 over the probably 
thousands of people who would prefer it not to be.
Most people don't have a clue what 00 even is so why force them to use it? 
because they won't. I know making it 00 would be nice and like i said before 
and someone else just said that maybe there should be 2 versions. Personally I 
wouldn't want one that dictates to you how to use it that's why I an most 
people don't use one of the available carts that's in fusebox.

I know it makes sense on one hand but the reality is most people who will use 
it are going to be plug'n'play beginners and those who can do it in 00 would 
probably want to make thier own anyways and if they are getting paid for it 
then they should make it themselfs or half to spend sometime converting it.

Most people that would be using it are going to be beginners doing small cheap 
sites.

I'm down for whatever and I will lend my hand but I don't think it needs to be 
a showcase for us individually and a limited user base but a usable 
application available to a big audience that can be manipulated however you 
want.

When you guys figure it out send me my task

Subject: Re: Open source shopping cart 

It's my opinion that this project is lacking focus in 2 very import areas
and John touches on one of them.

First, who is the intended audience of this project? Define that and many
questions will start to be answered.

Second, what's its purpose? Or said another way, what is its functionality,
is it going to include the kitchen sink or not?

As Dana said on the forum, we're arguing over whether to use pencils or pens
and we haven't even decided what we're drawing.

There needs to be a project manager/project owner who helps define these
questions and then has measurable milestones so such a diverse and dispersed
group will even know what is/isn't being accomoplished.

Maybe this is being too much of a PHB on the list here, but I think this is
doomed to fail if some structure isn't put in place.

And ya' know, if you don't agree with what's done, that doesn't stop others
from doing their own (e.g. one completely OO and one not).

 Fella's, I have to back out of working on this project (conflict of
 interest; my company is building an enterprise e-comm project). Sorry.

 I do want to respond to the OO portion before I completely sign off of
 this
 task.

 2cents willRespond=only if necessary
 Making it OO will only alienate those who want to do some sort of custom
 development and don't know OO. If they want to do something custom then
 they
 should read the docs (that should be well thought out and written). As far
 as the updates they'll desire, it shouldn't be anything more than
 graphical
 or at best a config change. If they are revamping the entire thing or even
 a
 healthy portion they are only using the cart as a guide.

 If it were strict OO with a config file setup the developer would only
 need
 to touch the css, images, and config file. Maybe an occassional include
 somewhere for a layout fix. osCommerce is a plug-n-play system. ZenCart is
 a
 plug-n-play system (can update just about everything from the admin so no
 code knowledge is needed). All of these free systems are there for you to
 drop in, customize, and launch. If you want something custom, starting
 from
 scratch would probably be best. I mean, using MVC would seem easier for me
 to come in and customize than procedural. All you'd need to do is update
 the
 views and you're done, unless you're overhauling the functionality in some
 way.

 I think it boils down to who this product is for. Is it for developers or
 e-commerce clients? If its geared towards developers, do what's best for
 them. If its geared towards clients, do what's best for them.

So, what's the structure we're looking at here? How OO are we making
this? Someone on the forum asked a version #. I say nix  5 and stick
with 6 , due to cfc's usage. I'd prefer it be 100% cfc's, minus
display.

I think the saving of items should be completely customizable so any
database setup and utilize the cfc's and it work perfectly fine. Maybe
on the display side the developer can simply set vars to say what's
showin the table along with any other info needed.

Just thoughts...

 howz about connie? HAHA jk, can you imagine that one

 I work a lot too but if we all take like 1 task apiece it wont be much

 time, maybe a few hours each.

 For ex: say you are in charge of user registration, big whoopy, a few 
 hours and you've done your part and if you want to contribute more 
 then take something else. And then have one or two of the REALLY good 
 coders to clean it up.

 And for those whom end up using the bajesus out of it but don't 
 contribute then I think we will lock u up in a room with connie and 
 cover you in cake and ya know.see what happens ;)

most of that sounds good but some of it is a bit over the top.
If you make it 00 then it will alienate a good majority of users, needs to
be simple enough that the average user can modify it.
Some of the xml stuff is over most peoples heads, maybe we could end up with
2 versions and the 2nd can be a paid version with all that stuff.
I know a lot of people will want to show off their skills but i think it
needs to be user friendly enough for beginners to use it since they will be
using it probably the most and for those ppl we try to get from php and such
it will be an easier conversion.

Have you noticed the ppl (including myself) that are volenteering aren't the
experts on here? If it's gunna be 00 then you lose those helpers and since
most of the higher end coders on here won't be helping so who's gunna go in
and make all our stuff 00?

other than that good plan.
While you are doing that I will start on the base code and css.
What are your opinions on that?
I personally am using xhtml strict and mostly cssp on my current stuff, I
don't mind being in charge of the base code stuff but lets agree on what to
start with. I'll be more than happy to take each persons code and make it
validate and all that good cross browser stuff.

Here are my thoughts:
1. OO
2. Design to be extended without taking out of upgrade path(pre  post
processing steps) 3. Provide DLL's 4. XML in and out with appropriate XSD's
5. Sample HTML and/or XSLT with CSS that can be used as a base 

Starting with someone elses data model is like starting coding without
requirements. If we want to do this right, we need to start at the
beginning. If we all chip in with the IC that we have this shouldn't take
too much time to get through the documentation phase. At each stage, we
create a forum for the individual parts, each of use signs up for those that
they can contribute to, someone takes lead for each...We finish then move to
the next step of the design. Continue until done, then move to Detailed
Design. While Use Cases are being created, the Archeticts can start creating
the framework within which detailed design and coding will operate within.

Bottom line, this needs to be run like a large scale development project.

You can count me in as well. We also have Gemini by Countersoft installed
(not licensed yet; will do in the next week or so) which we could all use to
track bugs and what-not.

I am busy (60+ hours/week seriously) so I don't have a ton of time but I can
put in maybe 5 to 10 hours a week (maybe).

(web space available as well)

howz about connie? HAHA jk, can you imagine that one

I work a lot too but if we all take like 1 task apiece it wont be much time, 
maybe a few hours each.

For ex: say you are in charge of user registration, big whoopy, a few hours and 
you've done your part and if you want to contribute more then take something 
else. And then have one or two of the REALLY good coders to clean it up.

And for those whom end up using the bajesus out of it but don't contribute then 
I think we will lock u up in a room with connie and cover you in cake and ya 
know.see what happens ;)

 takes a task and just gets it done. Would be cool if we did a new

 can only get ppl to follow through with their words. I guess we'll

 OK a change to my last post.

 I have now created a new Open Projects category in the forums, and the
 shopping cart forum is now in here. For those that want to be involved,
 please come and register at www.cfdeveloper.co.ukand post in the main
 cf_shoppingcart, and we will get things moving.

Connie left quite an impression on this list huh? Interesting...

Yeah, that sounds good. I tried registering for the forum but it kicked back
an error to me when trying to login. It seems pretty slow too. Maybe the
cross-continent thing is the prob.

So, what's the structure we're looking at here? How OO are we making this?
Someone on the forum asked a version #. I say nix  5 and stick with 6 ,
due to cfc's usage. I'd prefer it be 100% cfc's, minus display.

I think the saving of items should be completely customizable so any
database setup and utilize the cfc's and it work perfectly fine. Maybe on
the display side the developer can simply set vars to say what's showin the
table along with any other info needed.

Just thoughts...

I agree, go  6 (or =6). Cfc's usage will be a must.

Re: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-09 Thread dave
yeah connie was a jem.
he's lucky i didnt sue his ass off!

I think it should be with cfc's but I'd hesitate to use 00 because that will 
scare a lot of people off, if they user wants to make it 00 then it should be 
easy to modify though, same with frame works, I wouldnt think we should make it 
fusebox or anything because it leaves people out.

Like i posted on the board we should take it in small chunks in an at least 
semi organized way so it will be built in a flowing motion so its not a big 
mess.

We need a plan of action and a square one section, I was thinking start with 
the company info then add users, ect.

I would say my stonger suit is compliance and design so I can head that up but 
I'd be more than happy to star on the first task. I think someone needs to head 
up a to-do list, someone with good cart experience and we'll go from there, 
an takers? I'm busy as a mofo but if need by I will try and over see things.

I believe this is as big as almost anything. If its 100% XHTML+CSS it'll be

RE: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-09 Thread Mark Fuqua
Hey guys,

I would love to help, but I don't think my coding skills are up to the task.
I could help with documentation and planning though.

I would suggest you start by finding a PHP open source  shopping cart that
has the structure and features you want.  That way at least everyone knows
what the target is going to be.

In terms of site structure/architecture - I love how easy it is to
update/modify raymond camden's blog app. It took even me (your lowest
common denominator!) a very small amount of time to adapt the app to my
shared hosting environment and modify the css settings.

I downloaded it, installed it, but didn't take the time to implement (no
time to blog anyway, lol). Maybe that's a good start.

Yeah, I can understand leaving some folks out. I'm still leaning towards OO
just maybe not as strong. Either way I'm down.

I've built several carts but don't have near enough time to champion this
one, not like I'd want. I'd love to work on the cfc(s).

Re: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-09 Thread dave
I have heard several ppl say that the db scheme from oscommerce is pretty good, 
so maybe we should start with getting the db done.
So we will need a decent db person to head this up.
Also I know that a lot of people will want sql server buy since it's goinbg to 
be open source I think we should use mysql to stay with the theme and because 
its freely available and some of us choose not to use windows stuff.

Is the oscommerce db already done? if so maybe we just need someone to give it 
a good looking over.

Here are my thoughts:
1.  OO
2.  Design to be extended without taking out of upgrade path(pre  post
processing steps)
3.  Provide DLL's
4.  XML in and out with appropriate XSD's
5.  Sample HTML and/or XSLT with CSS that can be used as a base 

Starting with someone elses data model is like starting coding without
requirements.  If we want to do this right, we need to start at the
beginning.   If we all chip in with the IC that we have this shouldn't take
too much time to get through the documentation phase.  At each stage, we
create a forum for the individual parts, each of use signs up for those that
they can contribute to, someone takes lead for each...We finish then move to
the next step of the design.  Continue until done, then move to Detailed
Design.  While Use Cases are being created, the Archeticts can start
creating the framework within which detailed design and coding will operate
within.

Bottom line, this needs to be run like a large scale development project.

RE: Open source shopping cart

2005-11-09 Thread dave
most of that sounds good but some of it is a bit over the top.
If you make it 00 then it will alienate a good majority of users, needs to be 
simple enough that the average user can modify it.
Some of the xml stuff is over most peoples heads, maybe we could end up with 2 
versions and the 2nd can be a paid version with all that stuff.
I know a lot of people will want to show off their skills but i think it needs 
to be user friendly enough for beginners to use it since they will be using it 
probably the most and for those ppl we try to get from php and such it will be 
an easier conversion.

Have you noticed the ppl (including myself) that are volenteering aren't the 
experts on here? If it's gunna be 00 then you lose those helpers and since 
most of the higher end coders on here won't be helping so who's gunna go in and 
make all our stuff 00?

other than that good plan.
While you are doing that I will start on the base code and css.
What are your opinions on that?
I personally am using xhtml strict and mostly cssp on my current stuff, I don't 
mind being in charge of the base code stuff but lets agree on what to start 
with. I'll be more than happy to take each persons code and make it validate 
and all that good cross browser stuff.

 Not to take this thread in a whole new direction, but is anyone else
 offended that the cfopen.org http://cfopen.org project is 
 written in PHP?

Another thought... rubyforge.org, the cfopen.org equivelent for Ruby
(and Ruby on Rails, the current belle of the web development media ball)
also uses Gforge (http://gforge.org/), the project that forked from the
original Sourceforge code after one of the original developers was let
go.  Gforge is a darn good system, so why not use it?

Offended?  No.

We're CF folks, Alan!  We've known for years that CF is an option, not a
religion.  We don't begrudge other tools... especially when they're used to
promote CF.  ;^)

However, that being said, I can see how other, less mature, communities
might attempt to use this against CF.  But I wouldn't worry about this in
the long run - those people are very unlikely to start using CF in the first
place.

Let's pretend we're all clients - list all the features we'd like with our cart 
and make a decision on which ones we'll go with.

Then the next part will probably be, CHANGING what we all agreed to. 
hahahahahaa!

First decision is which site to use to coordinate our efforts.  Any
advantage to one site versus another?  Once we decide this, I'll open a
project and we can move the dialog to there.

Second step is to agree on some definnitions to help us to move forward.
Let me offer a first cut at some definitions:

Product:  A single item that can be bought or sold

Shopping Cart:  A set of products and order quantities that may or may not
be purchased

Address:  A phyisical location to which order confirmations, invoices,
bills, orders, etc, can be mailed or otherwise delivered to

Order:  A set of products and requested quantities and shipping and billing
information that are to be shipped to a single location

Purchase Order:  A grouping of one or more orders associated with a single
authorization

Let the party begin

U then have everything in one place.

Free webspace, forums, support, CFMX7, MySQl and SQL Server.
I would suggest using the forum to dicuss the project as it is cleaner than
a list as you can put it all in a single thread (or I could give you a
separate topic), where as the list posts will just get lost amongst

I would also find a broader term to encompass what you guys are doing. To
me, shopping cart means something to hold item(s) I want to purchase.
If you get into products catalogs, shipping, emails, products, categories,
carts, etc than I think the term commerce system or something along those
lines is more fitting.

 cfdeveloper.co.uk U then have everything in one place.

I would also find a broader term to encompass what you guys are doing. To
me, shopping cart means something to hold item(s) I want to purchase.
If you get into products catalogs, shipping, emails, products, categories,
carts, etc than I think the term commerce system or something along those
lines is more fitting.

RE: Starting Open Source Shopping Cart

2005-10-22 Thread Jeff Garza
Sounds pretty good, but might I suggest that all of this start with a well
defined requirements document?  What is the purpose of the project?  What
functionality will be included, broken out by module?  What other aspects of
the project are there to be taken into consideration (Frameworks,
methodologies, etc...).  What constraints are there for the project scope
(must run on shared hosts, use specific mappings, database support, etc...)?

Each one of the items below are pretty hefty systems within their own right.
Tying them all together in a single cohesive interface would be nightmarish
without a good project plan...  Sorry... the CMMI level 5 processes where I
work are beginning to rub off on me...

Cheers,

Jeff

I've actually been workin' on one myself for this very purpose, and for
about 3 months it seems. lol! Kinda tough to move fast with it though. 

Building productmanager.cfc and already have cart.cfc mostly complete. 
Like cw, the app allows unlimited product options, but mine will allow
images for any of those options. So you could have an image for red, black,
blue for instance.

I also even have an affiliatetracker.cfc on a working site that I'll add in.

Trust me... Level 5 is not somewhere you want to go... unless you like being
inundated with processes to manage your processes... ;-)

Level 2/3 is about where you really gain from the process but aren't a
complete slave to it.

Good point. I was thinking about following a UML process.  Start with
Scenerios, define actors, create Use Cases, create requirements...

From an infrastructure side, we will need to decide on standards,
frameworks, methodologiesOh CHRIST, this is sounding like real work!

However, the first step is decide on a place to hold all of these
discussions, or tracks of work.

LOL... yes, it is.  Usually, the UML diagrams come after the requirements
gathering... If you can find a place that supports wikis, that might be the
best way to get a requirements document in place...

Hey, that's the best way to get some skills.  My first few projects here 
years ago was helping develop some apps with a MUCH better developer 
that I.  I learned a LOT.  Of course, I have since surpassed her and she 
has been long gone from this company, but hey, I got what I wanted from 
her.  :)
