[mezzanine-users] How to extend cartridge?

[jenia mtl]

Hello.

I want to change cartridge a little. Change the templates, change the views 
and do on.

I did it by changing the code of the app itself. But I do not think it's 
the best idea for obvious reason (when the app will be upgrades, I'll be 
hard to merge my changes for example).

How do I extend Cartridge? Is there a mechanism to extend, override and so 
on Cartridge?

Thanks

To extend templates: Create a template in your project under the same 
path as the Cartridge template. For example, if you want to provide your 
own template for Products, create a template in 
your_app/templates/shop/product.html. Here's an explanation of Django's 
template loading: 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/templates/api/#django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader


Here are all the Cartridge templates you can override in your own 
project: 
https://github.com/stephenmcd/cartridge/tree/master/cartridge/shop/templates


To extend views: You can create your own views and register them in the 
same URL pattern as the view you want to override. If you want to 
override the view that renders the checkout page, you can register your 
own view at the /shop/checkout path. Make sure your overriden views are 
registered before the Cartridge urlpatterns. For example


url("^shop/checkout/", my_views.my_custom_checkout, name="shop_checkout")

Here's Cartridge's url config which lists all urls managed by Cartridge: 
https://github.com/stephenmcd/cartridge/blob/master/cartridge/shop/urls.py


To override models you can use Mezzanine's field injection, documented 
here: http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/model-customization.html. Notice 
this is useful only to add new fields to a model, not to remove or alter 
existing fields. For that you might need to maintain your own fork.


Finally, remember Cartridge comes with a bunch of settings you can 
customize to modify it's behavior, you can review them all here: 
http://cartridge.jupo.org/configuration.html

Hi Eduado,
Is there a straightforward tutorial on how to customize the 
Cartridge/Mezzanine shop/products model? e.g. I need more options showing 
on the shop page to make an order. Particular questions: I didn't find the 
model.py and view.py in the project, what are the steps I supposed to do if 
I want to customize it and make it working?


e.g. I don't want to show the home page instead showing a page that I 
customized from the moderna template (Which I customized just showed 
above), and I want to just  clicking each menu and linked it to a shop page 
which can make an order. Would you able to provide a tutorial and guidance 
on how to getting there.
Looking forward to hearing from you all. Peter
