Step 1: Set Up Your PrestaShop Store
- Install PrestaShop:
- Download the latest version of PrestaShop from the official website.
- Upload the files to your web server.
- Follow the installation instructions provided by PrestaShop to set up your store.
- Configure Your Store:
- Make sure to configure your store settings, such as currency, language, and payment gateways.
Step 2: Enable PrestaShop Web Service
- Enable Web Service in PrestaShop:
- Log in to the PrestaShop admin panel.
- Navigate to Advanced Parameters > Webservice.
- Click on "Add new webservice key".
- Enable the key and assign the necessary permissions for the resources you plan to access (e.g., products, orders).
- Save the key and note it down for later use.
Step 3: Set Up Your FlutterFlow Project
- Create a New FlutterFlow Project:
- Go to the FlutterFlow website and log in to your account.
- Click on "Create New App" and follow the prompts to set up a new project.
- Design Your App:
- Use FlutterFlow's drag-and-drop interface to design your mobile application's UI.
- Create necessary pages for your e-commerce app, such as Home, Product Listing, Product Details, and Cart.
Step 4: Integrate PrestaShop API in FlutterFlow
- Add API Calls in FlutterFlow:
- Go to the "Backend" section in your FlutterFlow project.
- Select "APIs" and click on "Add API".
- Enter your PrestaShop store's API endpoint, typically http://your-store.com/api.
- Insert the web service key generated in PrestaShop for authentication.
- Configure API Calls:
- Define the endpoints and request methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) for various operations like fetching product lists, product details, adding products to the cart, etc.
- Set up headers including the `Authorization` with the value `Basic `.
Step 5: Display Data from PrestaShop in FlutterFlow
- Fetch and Display Products:
- Navigate to the page where you want to display the product list.
- Drag and drop a ListView widget.
- Bind the ListView to the API endpoint that fetches the products.
- Map the API response data to the UI elements within the ListView, such as product name, image, and price.
- Product Details:
- Create a Product Details page.
- Configure navigation to pass the selected product's ID from the product list to the Product Details page.
- Use the product ID to fetch and display detailed information about the selected product.
Step 6: Handle User Authentication
- User Registration and Login:
- In PrestaShop, ensure you have the user registration and login functionality activated.
- In FlutterFlow, create a user registration and login UI.
- Use the PrestaShop web service to register new users and authenticate existing users via API calls.
Step 7: Cart and Orders Management
- Create Cart Page:
- Design a cart page in FlutterFlow where users can see products added to their cart.
- Implement functionality to add, update, or remove products in the cart using PrestaShop API.
- Checkout Process:
- Set up the checkout process in FlutterFlow.
- Ensure you handle order creation and payment processing through PrestaShop.
Step 8: Testing and Deployment
- Test the Integration:
- Thoroughly test all functionalities including product fetching, user authentication, cart management, and order processing.
- Make sure the data flow between FlutterFlow and PrestaShop is seamless and accurate.
- Deploy Your App:
- Once testing is complete, deploy your FlutterFlow application to the desired platforms (Android/iOS).
