A plugin for Shuup to simulate shipping methods in product detail page. Some customers want to see how much a product will cost with shipping and also how long it would take to arrive at home.

The plugin checks the URL to render its content, it means it will only work inside the ProductDetailView page.

The plugin will render a form to collect the customer address information, that will be used to create an instance of MutableAddress. The plugin will send a POST request to the ShippingSimulatorView which is responsible for receiving the Shipping Simulator form and the product info.

Inside the ShippingSimulatorView a temporary Basket is created with the MutableAdrress, the product and the quantity set. The Basket has already methods to return available shipping methods from a source (in this case we use our temp basket). The view then iterate over all available shipping methods and call its get_total_cost() and get_shipping_time() methods. The results are formatted and put inside a list which is returned by the ShippingSimulatorView as a JsonResponse.

The plugin receives the JSON response and present to the customer, simply as that.

• Shuup v0.5.0
• Tested on Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5

First, configure the settings of your Django project and set Shipping simulator class through SHIPPING_SIMULATOR_CLASS_SPEC config. The default value is shuup_shipping_simulator.simulators:PostalCodeShippingSimulator.

Second, edit product detail page usig Xtheme and add Shipping simulator plugin where you want and it's done.

You can create your own shipping simulator. Simply subclass ShippingSimulatorBase and override the necessary methods and custom form.

To run tests, just run py.test shuup-shipping-simulator_tests inside your virtualenv (with this module and Shuup installed).
