Virtuemart Cheat Sheet
  • Virtuemart 2.0
  • Cheat Sheet

Here's a list of Virtuemart code snippets so that I don't have to search the forums every time I need one!

Virtuemart 2.0

Get cart object

if (!class_exists('VirtueMartCart')) require(JPATH_VM_SITE . DS . 'helpers' . DS . 'cart.php');
$cart = VirtueMartCart::getCart();
.......................................................

Get address in $cart

if($cart->STsameAsBT == 0){
    $address = (($cart->ST == 0 ) ? $cart->BT : $cart->ST);
    }else{
    $address = $cart->BT;
    }
.......................................................

Loop thru products in $cart

$Total_Length=array();
foreach ($cart->products as $product) {
     if($product->quantity){            #only if array contains values
          $Total_Length[].= $product->product_length;
      }
}

.......................................................

Get shopper Group

$userModel = VmModel::getModel('user');
$vmuser = $userModel->getCurrentUser();
$vmgroup = $vmuser->shopper_groups;
//is an array

.......................................................

Typical query

$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$query = $db->getQuery(true);
$query->select($db->quoteName(array('p.virtuemart_product_id', 's.virtuemart_shoppergroup_id')));
$query->from($db->quoteName('#__virtuemart_products', 'p'));
$query->join('LEFT', $db->quoteName('#__virtuemart_product_categories', 'c') . ' ON (' . $db->quoteName('c.virtuemart_product_id') . ' = ' . $db->quoteName('p.virtuemart_product_id') . ')');
 
 $query->join('LEFT', $db->quoteName('#__virtuemart_product_shoppergroups', 's') . ' ON (' . $db->quoteName('s.virtuemart_product_id') . ' = ' . $db->quoteName('p.virtuemart_product_id') . ')');
 
$query->where($db->quoteName('c.virtuemart_category_id') . ' = '. $db->quote('115'));
$query->where($db->quoteName('p.published') . ' = '. $db->quote('1'));
$query->order($db->quoteName('virtuemart_product_id') . ' DESC');
$db->setQuery($query);
$results = $db->loadObjectList();
print 'Debug Line '.__LINE__.' $results <pre>'; print_r ($results); print "</pre><br />\n";

 

.......................................................

Has children in loop

function hasParent($pid){
$productModel = VmModel::getModel('product');
$id = $productModel->getProductParentId($pid);
if (!empty($id)){
return 1;
}
}
 
 
so in category view
products.php
 
after this
   foreach ($products as $product ) {
 
add this
 
              if(hasChilds($product->virtuemart_product_id)==1) continue;

 

.......................................................

Add product by URL

 

yoursite/index.php?option=com_virtumart&view=cart&task=add&quantity[]=5&virtuemart_product_id[]=22&quantity[]=2&virtuemart_product_id[]=55
.......................................................

Selectively show custom fields

<?php
#print 'Debug Line '.__LINE__.' $this->guests <pre>'; print_r ($this->product->customfieldsSorted['resources']); print "</pre><br />\n";
if($this->product->customfieldsSorted['resources']){  ?>
<div name="resources"></div>
<br /><br />
<h3>Additional Resources</h3>
<div id="prodresources">
 
<?php
foreach($this->product->customfieldsSorted['resources'] as $resource){
echo $resource->display;
}
?>
</div>
<br /><br />
<?php } ?>


Or ->
<?php echo shopFunctionsF::renderVmSubLayout('customfields',array('product'=>$this->product,'position'=>'explain')); ?>

 .......................................................

Get a product by id

$productModel = VmModel::getModel('Product');

$product = $productModel->getProduct ($field->customfield_value);

if(empty($product)) return false;

$productModel->addImages($product);

.......................................................

Get currency anywhere

$currency = CurrencyDisplay::getInstance( );

.......................................................

Load helpers etc

<?php
JLoader::register('VirtueMartCart', JPATH_SITE . '/components/com_virtuemart/helpers/cart.php');
JLoader::register('vmPSPlugin', JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_virtuemart/plugins/vmpsplugin.php');

$oCart = VirtueMartCart::getCart();
$cart  = clone($oCart);

// Reset all cart items.
$cart->cartProductsData = array();

// The virtueart_product_id. Set your desired product ID.
$product_id = 1; 

$cart->cartProductsData[] = array(
'virtuemart_product_id' => (int) $product_id,
'quantity'              => 1,
'customProductData'     => array()
);

// Flag product added
$cart->_productAdded = true;

$cart->prepareCartData();

JPluginHelper::importPlugin('vmshipment');

$shipments        = array();
$selectedShipment = 0;

JFactory::getApplication()->triggerEvent('plgVmDisplayListFEShipment', array($cart, $selectedShipment, &$shipments));

// Print the list of shipment methods.
var_dump($shipments);
?>
