Laravel PHP shopping cart

Features

• Simple API

Installation

Lara-phpcart is available via Composer

You can now use this facade in place of instantiating the Cart yourself in the following examples.

Usage

Add Item

The add method required id, name, price and quantity keys. However, you can pass any data that your application required.

use Miladev\Laracart\Cart;

$cart = new Cart();

$cart->add([
    'id'       => 1001,
    'name'     => 'Skinny Jeans',
    'quantity' => 1,
    'price'    => 90
]);

Update Item

$cart->update([
    'id'       => 1001,
    'name'     => 'Hoodie'
]);

Update quantity

$cart->updateQty(1001, 3);

Update price

$cart->updatePrice(1001, 30);

Remove an Item

$cart->remove(1001);

Get all Items

$cart->getItems();
// or
$cart->items();

Get an Item

$cart->get(1001);

Determining if an Item exists in the cart

$cart->has(1001);

Get the total number of items in the cart

$cart->count();

Get the total quantities of items in the cart

$cart->totalQuantity();

Total sum

$cart->getTotal();

$cart->clear();

Multiple carts

Lara-PHPCart supports multiple cart instances, so that you can have as many shopping cart instances on the same page as you want without any conflicts.

$cart = new Cart('cart1');
// or
$cart->setCart('cart2');
$cart->add([
    'id'       => 1001,
    'name'     => 'Skinny Jeans',
    'quantity' => 1,
    'price'    => 90
]);

//or
$cart->named('cart3')->add([
    'id'       => 1001,
    'name'     => 'Jeans',
    'quantity' => 2,
    'price'    => 100
]);

Coupons and Promo Codes

Apply a cart-level coupon or promo code to reduce the cart total.

$cart->applyCoupon([
    'code'  => 'SAVE10',
    'type'  => 'percentage', // or: fixed
    'value' => 10,
]);

$discount = $cart->getDiscountAmount();
$total = $cart->getTotal();

Remove an applied coupon:

$cart->removeCoupon();
