Overview


Managing shipments in any eCommerce app is something that may be tricky. There are many shipping providers, and each has its own API format you might want to use to export shipping data and request the pickup. To make this process simpler and generic, we created an abstract layer for Sylius platform-based applications. This plugin allows you to write simple API calls and configuration forms for specific shipping providers. The workflow is quite simple - configure the proper data that's needed to export a shipment, like access key or pickup hour, book a courier for an order with one click, and get a shipping label file if any was received from the API. The implementation limits to writing a shipping provider gateway configuration form, one event listener, and a web service access layer.

namespace App\Form\Type;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\NotBlank;

final class FrankMartinShippingGatewayType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options): void
    {
        $builder
            ->add('iban', TextType::class, [
                'label' => 'IBAN',
                'constraints' => [
                    new NotBlank([
                        'message' => 'IBAN number cannot be blank.',
                        'groups' => 'bitbag',
                    ]),
                ],
