Installation

Install the plugin (via a package)
```
symfony plugin:install sfCartPlugin
```
If that doesn't work for some reason, you can try installing the plugin manually. Download the plugin, and run the same command specifying the file location:
```
symfony plugin:install sfCartPlugin.tgz
```

Activate the plugin in the config/ProjectConfiguration.class.php.

[php]
class ProjectConfiguration extends sfProjectConfiguration
{
  public function setup()
  {
    $this->enablePlugins(array(
      'sfDoctrinePlugin', 
      'sfCartPlugin',
      '...'
    ));
  }
}

Enable the modules in your frontend, by editing apps/frontend/config/settings.yml
```
all:
  .settings:
    enabled_modules:       [cart]
```
Enable the administration module in your backend. You can enable it in any application you want, just ensure that you secure it. Add the following to apps/frontend/config/settings.yml:
```
all:
  .settings:
    enabled_modules:       [cartadmin]
```
Build the database, and load the dummy data. This command rebuilds your existing database:
```
php symfony doctrine:build --all --and-load
```
Create a symbolic link to the sfCartPlugin images, css and javascript files:
```
php symfony plugin:publish-assets
```

Include the sfCart CSS and javascript for the frontend (You can use your own download of jQuery if you prefer, but both jQuery and jQueryUI are provided). For the frontend, edit the file /apps/frontend/template/layout.php:

[php]
<?php use_stylesheet("/sfCartPlugin/css/cart.css") ?>    
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery-1.4.4.min.js") ?>  
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery-ui-1.8.9.custom.min.js") ?> 
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/cart.js") ?> 

<?php include_stylesheets() ?>
<?php include_javascripts() ?>

For the backend, edit the file /apps/backend/template/layout.php:

[php]
<?php use_stylesheet("/sfCartPlugin/css/cart.css") ?>    
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery-1.4.4.min.js") ?>  
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery-ui-1.8.9.custom.min.js") ?> 
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery.tipsy.js") ?>   
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/ckeditor.js") ?>                
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/cartadmin.js") ?>
<?php use_javascript("/sfCartPlugin/js/jquery.ui.nestedSortable.js") ?>

<?php include_stylesheets() ?>
<?php include_javascripts() ?>

Code Changes

Although a lot of work has already been put into this plugin, a lot more needs to be done. There are plans to move configurable items into the "Settings" section in the future. For the time being, you will need to be able to read and change code in order to get the most out of this plugin. Here are the critical code lines that you need to be aware of:

Mailer information - /sfCartPlugin/lib/OrderMessage.class.php

* line 22, 23  --  Enter your mailer information

Purolator shipping information - /sfCartPlugin/lib/shipping/purolator.class.php

* lines 3,4,5,6  --  Enter your Purolator account credentials
* lines 13, 38   --  Enter absolute path to wsdl files.  Relative does not work here.
* lines 90 to 99 --  Enter your Purolator account information

UPS shipping information - /sfCartPlugin/lib/shipping/ups.class.php

* line 28  --  Enter shipper's zipcode
