Basic Usage¶

Danger

We’re sorry but this documentation section is outdated. Please have that in mind when trying to use it. You can help us making documentation up to date via Sylius Github. Thank you!

In all examples is used an exemplary class implementing ShippableInterface, which looks like:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippableInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingCategoryInterface;

class Wardrobe implements ShippableInterface
{
    /**
     * @var ShippingCategoryInterface
     */
    private $category;

    /**
     * @var float
     */
    private $weight;

    /**
     * @var float
     */
    private $volume;

    /**
     * @var float
     */
    private $width;

    /**
     * @var float
     */
    private $height;

    /**
     * @var float
     */
    private $depth;

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingWeight(): float
    {
        return $this->weight;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function setShippingWeight(float $weight): void
    {
        $this->weight = $weight;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingVolume(): float
    {
        return $this->volume;
    }

    /**
     * @param int $volume
     */
    public function setShippingVolume(float $volume)
    {
        $this->volume = $volume;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingWidth(): float
    {
        return $this->width;
    }


    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function setShippingWidth(float $width)
    {
        $this->width = $width;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingHeight(): float
    {
        return $this->height;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function setShippingHeight(float $height)
    {
        $this->height = $height;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingDepth(): float
    {
        return $this->depth;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function setShippingDepth(float $depth)
    {
        $this->depth = $depth;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getShippingCategory(): ShippingCategoryInterface
    {
        return $this->category;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function setShippingCategory(ShippingCategoryInterface $category)
    {
        $this->category = $category;
    }
}

Shipping Category¶

Every shipping category has three identifiers, an ID, code and name. You can access those by calling ->getId(), ->getCode() and ->getName() methods respectively. The name is mutable, so you can change them by calling and ->setName('Regular') on the shipping category instance.

Shipping Method¶

Every shipping method has three identifiers, an ID code and name. You can access those by calling ->getId(), ->getCode() and ->getName() methods respectively. The name is mutable, so you can change them by calling ->setName('FedEx') on the shipping method instance.

Setting Shipping Category¶

Every shipping method can have shipping category. You can simply set or unset it by calling ->setCategory().

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingMethod;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingCategory;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingMethodInterface;

$shippingCategory = new ShippingCategory();
$shippingCategory->setName('Regular'); // Regular weight items

$shippingMethod = new ShippingMethod();
$shippingMethod->setCategory($shippingCategory); //default null, detach
$shippingMethod->getCategory(); // Output will be ShippingCategory object
$shippingMethod->setCategory(null);

Shipping Method Translation¶

ShippingMethodTranslation allows shipping method’s name translation according to given locales. To see how to use translation please go to ResourceBundle documentation.

Shipment Item¶

You can use a ShippingItem for connecting a shippable object with a proper Shipment. Note that a ShippingItem can exist without a Shipment assigned.

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentItem;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentInterface;

$shipment = new Shipment();
$wardrobe = new Wardrobe();
$shipmentItem = new ShipmentItem();

$shipmentItem->setShipment($shipment);
$shipmentItem->getShipment(); // returns shipment object
$shipmentItem->setShipment(null);

$shipmentItem->setShippable($wardrobe);
$shipmentItem->getShippable(); // returns shippable object

$shipmentItem->getShippingState(); // returns const STATE_READY
$shipmentItem->setShippingState(ShipmentInterface::STATE_SOLD);

Shipment¶

Every Shipment can have the types of state defined in the ShipmentInterface and the ShippingMethod, which describe the way of delivery.

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingMethod;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentInterface;

$shippingMethod = new ShippingMethod();

$shipment = new Shipment();
$shipment->getState(); // returns const checkout
$shipment->setState(ShipmentInterface::STATE_CANCELLED);

$shipment->setMethod($shippingMethod);
$shipment->getMethod();

Adding shipment item¶

You can add many shipment items to shipment, which connect shipment with shippable object.

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentItem;

$shipmentItem = new ShipmentItem();
$shipment = new Shipment();

$shipment->addItem($shipmentItem);
$shipment->hasItem($shipmentItem); // returns true
$shipment->getItems(); // returns collection of shipment items
$shipment->getShippingItemCount(); // returns 1
$shipment->removeItem($shipmentItem);

Tracking shipment¶

You can also define tracking code for your shipment:

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;

$shipment->isTracked();// returns false
$shipment->setTracking('5346172074');
$shipment->getTracking(); // returns 5346172074
$shipment->isTracked();// returns true

RuleCheckerInterface¶

This example shows how use an exemplary class implementing RuleCheckerInterface.

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentItem;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Rule;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Checker\ItemCountRuleChecker;

$rule = new Rule();
$rule->setConfiguration(array('count' => 5, 'equal' => true));

$wardrobe = new Wardrobe();

$shipmentItem = new ShipmentItem();
$shipmentItem->setShippable($wardrobe);

$shipment = new Shipment();
$shipment->addItem($shipmentItem);

$ruleChecker = new ItemCountRuleChecker();
$ruleChecker->isEligible($shipment, $rule->getConfiguration()); // returns false, because
// quantity of shipping item in shipment is smaller than count from rule's configuration

Hint

You can read more about each of the available checkers in the Checkers chapter.

Delegating calculation to correct calculator instance¶

DelegatingCalculator class delegates the calculation of charge for particular shipping subject to a correct calculator instance, based on the name defined on the shipping method. It uses ServiceRegistry to keep all calculators registered inside container. The calculators are retrieved by name.

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingMethod;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Calculator\DefaultCalculators;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Calculator\PerItemRateCalculator;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Calculator\FlexibleRateCalculator;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentItem;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Calculator\DelegatingCalculator;
use Sylius\Component\Registry\ServiceRegistry;

$configuration = array(
    'first_item_cost'       => 1000,
    'additional_item_cost'  => 200,
    'additional_item_limit' => 2
);
$shippingMethod = new ShippingMethod();
$shippingMethod->setConfiguration($configuration);
$shippingMethod->setCalculator(DefaultCalculators::FLEXIBLE_RATE);

$shipmentItem = new ShipmentItem();

$shipment = new Shipment();
$shipment->setMethod($shippingMethod);
$shipment->addItem($shipmentItem);

$flexibleRateCalculator = new FlexibleRateCalculator();
$perItemRateCalculator = new PerItemRateCalculator();

$calculatorRegistry = new ServiceRegistry(CalculatorInterface::class);
$calculatorRegistry->register(DefaultCalculators::FLEXIBLE_RATE, $flexibleRateCalculator);
$calculatorRegistry->register(DefaultCalculators::PER_ITEM_RATE, $perItemRateCalculator);

$delegatingCalculators = new DelegatingCalculator($calculatorRegistry);
$delegatingCalculators->calculate($shipment); // returns 1000

$configuration2 = array('amount' => 200);
$shippingMethod2 = new ShippingMethod();
$shippingMethod2->setConfiguration($configuration2);
$shippingMethod2->setCalculator(DefaultCalculators::PER_ITEM_RATE);

$shipment->setMethod($shippingMethod2);
$delegatingCalculators->calculate($shipment); // returns 200

Caution

The method ->register() and ->get() used in ->calculate throw InvalidArgumentException. The method ->calculate throws UndefinedShippingMethodException when given shipment does not have a shipping method defined.

Hint

You can read more about each of the available calculators in the Calculators chapter.

Resolvers¶

ShippingMethodsResolver¶

Sylius has flexible system for displaying the shipping methods available for given shippables (subjects which implement ShippableInterface), which is base on ShippingCategory objects and category requirements. The requirements are constant default defined in ShippingMethodInterface. To provide information about the number of allowed methods it use ShippingMethodResolver.

First you need to create a few instances of ShippingCategory class:

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingCategory;

$shippingCategory = new ShippingCategory();
$shippingCategory->setName('Regular');
$shippingCategory1 = new ShippingCategory();
$shippingCategory1->setName('Light');

Next you have to create a repository w which holds a few instances of ShippingMethod. An InMemoryRepository, which holds a collection of ShippingMethod objects, was used. The configuration is shown below:

<?php

// ...
// notice:
// $categories = array($shippingCategory, $shippingCategory1);

$firstMethod = new ShippingMethod();
$firstMethod->setCategory($categories[0]);

$secondMethod = new ShippingMethod();
$secondMethod->setCategory($categories[1]);

$thirdMethod = new ShippingMethod();
$thirdMethod->setCategory($categories[1]);
// ...

Finally you can create a method resolver:

<?php

use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShippingCategory;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\Shipment;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\ShipmentItem;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Model\RuleInterface;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Checker\Registry\RuleCheckerRegistry;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Checker\ItemCountRuleChecker;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Resolver\ShippingMethodsResolver;
use Sylius\Component\Shipping\Checker\ShippingMethodEligibilityChecker;

$ruleCheckerRegistry = new RuleCheckerRegistry();
$methodEligibilityChecker = new shippingMethodEligibilityChecker($ruleCheckerRegistry);

$shippingRepository = new InMemoryRepository(); //it has collection of shipping methods

$wardrobe = new Wardrobe();
$wardrobe->setShippingCategory($shippingCategory);
$wardrobe2 = new Wardrobe();
$wardrobe2->setShippingCategory($shippingCategory1);

$shipmentItem = new ShipmentItem();
$shipmentItem->setShippable($wardrobe);
$shipmentItem2 = new ShipmentItem();
$shipmentItem2->setShippable($wardrobe2);

$shipment = new Shipment();
$shipment->addItem($shipmentItem);
$shipment->addItem($shipmentItem2);

$methodResolver = new ShippingMethodsResolver($shippingRepository, $methodEligibilityChecker);
$methodResolver->getSupportedMethods($shipment);

The ->getSupportedMethods($shipment) method return the number of methods allowed for shipment object. There are a few possibilities:

  1. All shippable objects and all ShippingMethod have category Regular. The returned number will be 3.
  2. All ShippingMethod and one shippable object have category Regular. Second shippable object has category Light. The returned number will be 3.
  3. Two ShippingMethod and one shippable object have category Regular. Second shippable object and one ShippingMethod have category Light. The returned number will be 3.
  4. Two ShippingMethod and one shippable object have category Regular. Second shippable object and second ShippingMethod have category Light. The second Shipping category sets the category requirements as CATEGORY_REQUIREMENT_MATCH_NONE. The returned number will be 2.
  5. Two ShippingMethod and all shippable objects have category Regular. Second ShippingMethod has category Light. The second Shipping category sets the category requirements as CATEGORY_REQUIREMENT_MATCH_NONE. The returned number will be 3.
  6. Two ShippingMethod and one shippable object have category Regular. Second shippable object and second ShippingMethod have category Light. The second Shipping category sets the category requirements as CATEGORY_REQUIREMENT_MATCH_ALL. The returned number will be 2.
  7. Two ShippingMethod have category Regular. All shippable object and second ShippingMethod have category Light. The second Shipping category sets the category requirements as CATEGORY_REQUIREMENT_MATCH_ALL. The returned number will be 1.

Note

The categoryRequirement property in ShippingMethod is set default to CATEGORY_REQUIREMENT_MATCH_ANY. For more detailed information about requirements please go to Shipping method requirements.
