Shop Installation and setting up details

Lfgi_23 · Nov 26th 2019

I am beginning to use the Shop App but finding the Docs information hard to understand how the complete shop system can be put into practice.

Is there any basic Shop Info I could be missing?

Should I take a Shop Demo to better see the structure and how it is put together?

Is there a tutorial anywhere Online?

All help greatly appreciated xx

Check this link for a demo website using Perch Shop. You can look into all of the templates and pages used, so you can get a better understanding of the process.

ok.

And should I use Runway or Perch to test this ?

What does this exactly mean:

Update the perch/config.php file with your own details

?

here the config from the test:

PHP

<?php
include('config.private.php');
define('PERCH_TZ', 'Europe/London');
define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/perch');
define('PERCH_PATH', str_replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config', '', dirname(__FILE__)));
define('PERCH_CORE', PERCH_PATH.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'core');
define('PERCH_RESFILEPATH', PERCH_PATH . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'resources');
define('PERCH_RESPATH', PERCH_LOGINPATH . '/resources');
define('PERCH_HTML5', true);
define('PERCH_DONT_DELETE_FILES', true);

And here my config:

PHP

<?php
switch($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']) {
case 'localhost':
include(__DIR__.'/config.localhost.php');
break;
default:
include('config.production.php');
break;
}
define('PERCH_LICENSE_KEY', '****');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM', '****');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM_NAME', '****');
define('PERCH_TZ', 'Europe/London');
define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/perch');
define('PERCH_PATH', str_replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'config', '', dirname(__FILE__)));
define('PERCH_CORE', PERCH_PATH.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'core');
define('PERCH_RESFILEPATH', PERCH_PATH . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'resources');
define('PERCH_RESPATH', PERCH_LOGINPATH . '/resources');
define('PERCH_HTML5', true);
define('PERCH_DONT_DELETE_FILES', true);

I understand the first three define () lines but the include()'s are confusing me...
