Oh, forgot to say the most important part. The ECom recommender does not 
support shopping carts unless you train on (cart-id, item-id-of item 
added-to-cart) And even then I’m not sure you can query with the current cart’s 
contents since the item-based query is for a single item. The cart-id takes the 
place of user-id in this method of training and there may be a way to do this 
in the MLlib implementation but It isn’t surfaced in the PIO interface. It 
would be explained as an anonymous user (one not in the training data) and will 
take an item list in the query. Look into the MLlib ALS library and expect to 
modify the template code.

There is also the Complimentary Purchase template, which does shopping carts 
but, from my rather prejudiced viewpoint, if you need to switch templates use 
one that supports every use-case you are likely to need.

The Universal Recommender supports several types of “item-set” recommendations:
1) Complimentary Purchases. which are things bought with what you have in the 
shopping cart. This is done by training on (cart-id, “add-to-cart”, item-id) 
and querying with the current items in the user’s cart. 
2) Similar items to those in the cart, this is done by training with the 
typical events like purchase, detail-view, add-to-cart., etc. for each user, 
then the query is the contents of the shopping cart as a “item-set”. This give 
things similar to what is in the cart and usually not the precise semantics for 
a shopping cart but fits other cases of using an items-set, like wish-lists
3) take the last n items viewed and query with them and you have 
“recommendations based on your recent views” In this case you need purchases as 
the primary event because you want to recommend purchases but using only 
“detail-views” to do so. 
4) some other combinations like favorites, watch-lists, etc.

These work slightly different and I could give examples of how they are used in 
Amazon but #1 is typically used for the “shopping cart"

Hey there, 

did you consider seeing this: 
https://predictionio.incubator.apache.org/templates/ecommercerecommendation/train-with-rate-event/
 
<https://predictionio.incubator.apache.org/templates/ecommercerecommendation/train-with-rate-event/>

for considering such events you may want to use the $set events as shown in the 
template documentation. I use universal recommender though since already 
supports these requirements. 


Hope this helps.

Hello,
I am using Ecommerce recommendation template. Currently i imported view and buy 
events and it works. To improve results accuracy, how can i modify code to 
import and use events like 'user added item to cart' and 'user added item to 
wishlist'? I know this template supports to add new events but there is only 
example in site about how to implement rate event, whic i am not using rate 
data.
Thank you

Ilker
