Solidus Catalog Mode

This gem adds a boolean field to the products and to the stores. In this way you could set a single product or the complete store to be in "catalog mode". Then in your store frontend you can use this information to disable the link to the cart, the price and the cart form in the product page.

Installation

Add solidus_catalog_mode to your Gemfile:

gem 'solidus_catalog_mode'

Bundle your dependencies and run the installation generator:

bin/rails generate solidus_catalog_mode:install

Usage

Set the flag in the product details page in the admin to enable catalog mode for the single product. To enable the catalog mode for the entire store, just set the same flag in the store edit page.

Dependencies

If you want to be able to set the flag for the stores in the backend, it requires the solidus_multi_domain gem.

Development

Testing the extension

First bundle your dependencies, then run bin/rake. bin/rake will default to building the dummy app if it does not exist, then it will run specs. The dummy app can be regenerated by using bin/rake extension:test_app.

bin/rake

To run Rubocop static code analysis run

bundle exec rubocop

When testing your application's integration with this extension you may use its factories. Simply add this require statement to your spec_helper:

require 'solidus_catalog_mode/factories'

Running the sandbox

To run this extension in a sandboxed Solidus application, you can run bin/sandbox. The path for the sandbox app is ./sandbox and bin/rails will forward any Rails commands to sandbox/bin/rails.

Here's an example:

$ bin/rails server
=> Booting Puma
=> Rails 6.0.2.1 application starting in development
* Listening on tcp://127.0.0.1:3000
Use Ctrl-C to stop

Updating the changelog

Before and after releases the changelog should be updated to reflect the up-to-date status of the project:

bin/rake changelog
git add CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "Update the changelog"

Releasing new versions

Your new extension version can be released using gem-release like this:

bundle exec gem bump -v 1.6.0
bin/rake changelog
git commit -a --amend
