Overriding and Extending

Controllers & Routes

Because our provider is loaded before the app providers, you're free to use your routes/web.php to override routes.

To override the homepage route to point to your controller you can add the following to routes/web.php, example:

# Assumes you have a controller called "HomeController" (App\Http\Controllers\HomeController)
Route::get(
    '/',
    'HomeController@index'
)->middleware(['auth.shop', 'billable'])->name('home');

/ will now point to your own controller HomeController. Now, you can add your own methods/views. Keep in mind, to extend the base layout as it contains all ESDK setup, example: @extends('shopify-app::layouts.default').

If you're overriding routes, be sure to open config/app.php and move this package's provider to be before Laravel's provider. Example:

\OhMyBrew\ShopifyApp\ShopifyAppProvider::class,
App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,

Views

If you wish to simply change a view in this package, such as the layout file...

Laravel will look for views in resources/views/vendor/shopify-app. To override the layout view you would create resources/views/vendor/shopify-app/layouts/default.blade.php.

Models

You can create Shop.php in App folder and extend the package's model.

<?php

namespace App;

use OhMyBrew\ShopifyApp\Models\Shop as BaseShop;

class Shop extends BaseShop
{
    protected $table = 'shops';

    // Your extensions or changes
}

You may also simply use the trait such as:

<?php

use OhMyBrew\ShopifyApp\Traits\ShopModelTrait;

class Shop
{
    use ShopModelTrait;

    // Your extensions or changes here
}

But beware, you must also copy over the model properties from OhMyBrew\ShopifyApp\Models\Shop for Eloquent to properly work with the model.

Important: In either case, you should open config/shopify-app.php and change shop_model to point to your own shop model, or set the path to the SHOPIFY_SHOP_MODEL environment variable.

Example:

'shop_model' => '\App\Shop' // or env('SHOPIFY_SHOP_MODEL') and change .env to point to it
