Allow add to cart and checkout without login / signup

[connecteev]

This is pretty basic for any ecommerce store (like Shopify) - I should be able to purchase an item without having to create an account or log in

Thanks. We will be working on this shortly.

Any updates on this?

Any updates on this?

We will try to get to it as soon as we can but due to other commitments and day job of all the devs, it will take some time for this. Feel free to grab this issue and raise a PR. Also, are you looking for a certain form of e-commerce implementation?

@smaharj1 I'll try to work on this and submit a pull request for the same. But I dont think I'll be able to complete it soon. However, I'll surely give it a shot.

@smaharj1 @Viveckh I have changed the add-to-cart flow a bit where when a new (non-existing) user clicks on add-to-cart, the pathname of the page is saved to localstorage and once they have signed-up or signed-in, they will be pushed back to this very page.

This is working but I cannot submit a pull request because I have made way to many changes to the UI and some to the backend.

@Viveckh or @smaharj1 one of you can submit a pull request. Here's the code:

1. In shopping-webclient/src/components/product-detail/ProductDescription.vue:

Right under:

Veniqa/shopping-webclient/src/components/product-detail/ProductDescription.vue

Line 109 in 80feecf

async addToCart() {

add
var Url= window.location.pathname;

and under this line:

Veniqa/shopping-webclient/src/components/product-detail/ProductDescription.vue

Line 110 in 80feecf

if (!this.isSessionActive) {

add

localStorage.setItem("Url", Url)

And lastly,

under

Veniqa/shopping-webclient/src/components/registrations/LoginComponent.vue

Line 117 in 80feecf

if (this.usernameState) { // } && this.captchaResp.length > 0) {

add

this.$router.push(localStorage.getItem('Url'));

Now if you are not signed in, the product page you were on is stored in your browsers localstorage and once you have signed in, you will be redirected to the product page you were on.
