Exported functions

Store construction info for method method_name of class target_class.

set_global_catalog (target_class, ...)

Store catalog informations. The first parameter is the class featuring the methods declared in the global catalog.

Following paramaters is a set of named paramaters (e.g. key => value):

name

Mandatory name for the global catalog

list

array ref containing the list of slot and catalog. E.g.:

list => [
[qw/foo bar baz/] => foo_catalog,
[qw/a b z/] => alpha_catalog,
my_object => my_catalog
],
isa

Optional hash ref declaring a containment for catalog. E.g:

list => [ foo => USER ,
admin => ROOT ],
isa => { USER => ROOT }

Then the ROOT catalog will return foo, and the USER catalog will return foo and admin.

help

Optional hash ref (slot_name => help). Store some help information for each slot.

set_global_catalog will construct:

A ClassCatalog object containing the global catalog informations.

A sub_ref containing the ClassCatalog object in a closure.

Returns ( slot_name, sub_ref ). The sub_ref is to be installed in the target class.

When called as a class method, the subref will return the ClassCatalog object. When called as a target class method, the subref will return an ObjectCatalog object associated to the ClassCatalog object stored in the closure.

These 2 object have the same API. ObjectCatalog is used to contain catalog changes that may occur at run-time. ClassCatalog informations will not change.

Contentment::Catalog is a Perl module to provides categorization and indexing features.

SYNOPSIS

# Get a list of the available indexes
my @indexes = $context->catalog->indexes;

for my $index (@indexes) {

# Get a list of avilable terms
my @terms = $index->terms;

for my $term (@terms) {

# Get a list of generators
my @generators = $index->generators;

}

}

One frequently controversial component of a CMS is the categorization system. Contentment attempts to avoid this problem by providing a framework for building categorization systems so that any controversy just leads to the replacement of whatever system someone doesnt like.
That is, rather than create some all encompassing categorization system or some dead-simple one that your grandma who thinks the boogey-man is going to jump out of the her CD-ROM drive can use, you can have either or both or neither depending upon your need. Thus, instead of providing a category or taxonomy system, Contentment provides the indexing system, which allows you to implement whatever category system you prefer.

Ubercart project is an e-commerce shopping cart integrated with the Drupal CMS.
Main features:
- Configurable product catalog includes catalog pages and a block to display product categories.
- Flexible product creation system. Create normal products by default. Create product classes to store more information on a subset of your catalog. (Ex: Creating a book class would let you store and display separately the author, publisher, and length of the book.)
- Flexible product attributes system. Create user selectable attributes for your products that modify the price, SKU/model, and/or weight of items as the customer adds them to his or her cart.
- Single page checkout. All checkout information gathered on a single screen composed of configurable checkout panes. Third party modules can define checkout panes to replace or add to the default set, making it easy to customize the checkout experience.
- Automatic account generation (anonymous checkout). Accounts and emails are automatically generated based on the customers e-mail address. For return customers, previously used addresses will be listed on the checkout page for easy access.
- Simple order processing. The order administration screens have been designed by and for our salesmen. We believe there is always room for improvement and will try to make it happen! Order screens use the "pane" model, so the screens are configurable and extensible to accommodate a wide variety of e-commerce applications.
- Simple order creation and editing. Easy to create orders manually for customers, adding products, shipping prices, etc. from a single screen. Line items system makes it easy to add fees, discounts, and coupons to orders.
- Integrated payment system that acts as a bridge between acceptable payment methods (check, credit card, cod, etc.) and payment gateways (Cyber Source, Authorize.net, PayPal, etc.). Configurable payment processing and tracking, and easy to use credit card terminal with varying levels of access.
- Activity logging. Enable logging to see all the changes made to an order, including payment processing. (Your accountant will love this!)
