ERPNext Opencart API

Warning: This plugin is currently under development. Please do not use it for production now

Purpose

ERPNext app that aims to connect ERPNext with Opencart through building REST API Endpoints for Opencart to consume. There will be another component for Opencart as well to actually import data.

Objectives:

  • Sync as Items and Categories Periodically from ERPNext to Opencart
  • Add a Sales Order when a purchase made in Opencart
  • Add/Update a Order Status for ERPNext's Sales Order (such as 'Ready to ship', 'Shipping', 'Received'). This should be reflected on Opencart administrator.
  • Tight up all other related phases of the 2 system like Delivery Order and Sales Invoice (Accounts).

Preparation

ERPNext is a pretty robust system that can handle multiple ecommerce's data. Therefore, to reduce confusion, this plugin will try to separate those by User/Company/Item Group

Prerequisites

Please install requests by running (either in your virtualenv or production server):

pip install requests

Notices

For now, this plugin will use the Opencart REST API to sync data. Unfortunately, it is not an opensource project. Currently we installed Opencart REST API into our opencart demo server here.

If you want to contribute to the plugin, please let me know. I will give you the access to the server.

Installation

Following instructions here to install Frappe and ERPNext
In your shell, run:

bench get-app opencart_api https://github.com/nathando/erpnext-opencart-api.git

App will create 2 extra DocTypes: Opencart Config and Opencart Site
There are some more preparation steps before trying:

  • Create one Item Group which will be the root for all Ecommerce sites (Let's say 'Opencart').
  • Set this to be the Default Item Group in Opencart Config
  • Create a Role and named it 'Opencart Admin', and grant this role Permission to Item, Item Group List (Read, Write, Create Delete)
  • Create your Opencart Site's info by going to Opencart Site List
  • This app assumes that you should have one User and one only tight to each Opencart Site
