I am thrilled to unveil an exciting new feature for the Cart package: Coupons! This update brings enhanced flexibility and functionality to your Laravel-based e-commerce solutions, making it easier than ever to offer discounts and promotions to your customers.
What’s New?
With the new Coupon feature, you can now:
- Apply Discounts: Add both percentage-based and fixed amount coupons to your cart.
- Create Custom Coupons: Develop your own coupon classes to suit your unique business needs.
- Manage Coupons Efficiently: Apply, remove, and get details of applied coupons with ease.
Key Features
1. Apply Coupons with Ease
Integrate discount promotions effortlessly with our new methods. You can apply a coupon to your cart using a simple method call:
use RealRashid\Cart\Facades\Cart;
use App\Coupons\PercentageCoupon;
// Create a percentage-based coupon
$percentageCoupon = new PercentageCoupon('PERCENT20', 20, '2024-12-31');
// Apply it to the cart
Cart::instance('cart')->applyCoupon($percentageCoupon);
2. Custom Coupon Classes
Design and implement custom coupon classes by implementing the Coupon interface. Here’s a sample of a fixed amount coupon:
<?php
namespace App\Coupons;
use RealRashid\Cart\Coupon\Coupon as CouponContract;
use App\Models\Coupon as CouponModel;
class FixedAmountCoupon implements CouponContract
{
protected $coupon;
public function __construct(CouponModel $coupon)
{
$this->coupon = $coupon;
}
public function getCode(): string
{
return $this->coupon->code;
}
public function isValid(): bool
{
return $this->coupon->isValid();
}
public function getDiscountType(): string
{
return 'fixed_amount';
}
public function getExpiryDate(): string
{
return $this->coupon->expiry_date;
}
public function getDiscountAmount(): float
{
return $this->coupon->amount;
}
}
3. Manage Applied Coupons
Easily manage your applied coupons with new methods to apply, remove, and retrieve details about your coupons:
-
Apply Coupon:
Cart::applyCoupon($coupon); -
Remove Coupon:
Cart::removeCoupon(); -
Get Coupon Details:
Cart::getAppliedCouponDetails();
