Default Api

I'm looking to create a third-party module that hooks into the shopping cart, along with a admin config page. Is there an API that I can tap into for this, or is it all just one big hack to get things working?

Default Re: Api

This really isn't the best place to post, as this forum is more regarding finished 3rd party modules. A better location for you would be Program Logic

Regardless, there is no api. It's all procedural code, so you have to pretty much try to figure out how the entire process works from start to finish, and where your code would best be inserted.

Good luck, the cart is one area I've never been a fan of working in

EDIT: BTW, for the admin config page, if you create a module entry, then you can define config options for that module entry, which will automatically show up in the Module Administration with a link to the module options

I've been investigating posibility to develop API also
this is pretty big part of work

very small part of existing shopping carts on the market really have some API, including X-Cart
