Integrating Commerce Data With Content

Content commerce, shop everywhere, vanish separation of content and commerce - these are key phrases that popup with every state-of-the-art e-commerce project. With its integrated approach Pimcore does exactly that and provides several tools to provide the best experience for the users.

One of these tools are Renderlets, which provide a great way to integrate dynamic object (thus commerce) content to Pimcore documents.

Follow the steps to create a Product teaser similar to the one in our demo.

Create Area Brick MyProductTeaser with Renderlet​

MyProductTeaser Implementation

<?php

namespace App\Document\Areabrick;

class MyProductTeaser extends AbstractAreabrick
{
    public function getName(): string
    {
        return 'My Product Teaser';
    }
}

MyProductTeaser Template

<div class="row">
    {% for i in pimcore_block('teaserblock').iterator %}
        {{ pimcore_renderlet('productteaser', {
            controller: 'shop',
            action: 'productCell',
            width: 270,
            height: 370,
            title: 'Drag a product here',
            editmode: editmode
        }) }}
    {% endfor %}
</div>

Create Controller and Action for Teaser Content​

Controller Action

    public function productCellAction(Request $request): Response
    {
        $id = $request->attribute->getInt('id');
        $type = $request->attribute->get('type');

        if ($type === 'object') {
            $product = Product::getById($id);

            return $this->render('product/product_cell.html.twig', ['product' => $product]);
        }

        throw new \Exception('Invalid Type');
    }

Template

{% set col = app.request.get('editmode') ? 12 : 3 %}

<div class="col-sm-{{ col }} col-lg-{{ col }} col-md-{{ col }}">
    <div class="thumbnail product-list-item">
        <a href="{{ product.linkProduct.detailUrl }}">
            {{ product.getFirstImage('productList').html({class: 'product-image'}) }}
            <div class="caption">
                <h4 class="pull-right">{{ product.OSPrice }}</h4>

                <h4>{{ product.OSName }}</h4>
    
                <p>{{ product.description|striptags|trim[:70] }}</p>

            </div>
        </a>

        <div class="buttons">
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-md-6">
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-6">
                    <a href="{{ pimcore_url({

                        action: 'add',
                        item: product.id,
                    }, 'cart') }}" class="btn btn-success btn-product">
