Forum OpenACS Development: Response to ecommerce status?

Collapse
Posted by Gilbert Wong on
Yes, Bart and have exchanged emails.

I've done some tests with the search contract on some test packages.  The implementation is straight forward.  The only issue is the active_p indicator in the ec_products table.  I'm not sure how to handle that yet.

Anyway, is there any documentation on how to implement a service contract?  It's going to take a lot of work decouple cybercash from the current ecommerce package, but I don't think we need to provide that decoupling for the first release.  I think it makes sense to define the inputs/outputs to the payment gateways and to create these as separate services which we can hook in later.

Any thoughts?  Thanks.
