Transcript

00:00

So we've already discussed that we want to add images to our variations because when we see these in the cart page or the orders page, we want to be able to show a small image next to each of these products. Now, we don't need to apply images to the black and white variations

00:15

here that we've got. We only need them with the variations that have SKUs. Obviously, these two being attached to the black shoe will have the same image, and these two being attached to the white shoe

00:28

will also have the same image. But because we have the flexibility in our variations, if you had, say, a large size of something, you might want to show a larger product image or pretty much anything.

00:40

So you can attach any images to any of your final variations and make this work for the products that you are selling. So let's go ahead and do that now. We've got three, four, five, and six.

00:51

We've got them images over in our base directory. So we've got these two images here. So we can just pretty much run exactly the same commands. The only problem at the moment is, inside of our code,

01:04

we don't have our hasMedia interface and interactsWithMedia trait attached to our variation model. So let's go ahead and do that now. So the first thing we want to do is implement hasMedia.

01:17

Let's pull that in. And then down here, use interactsWithMedia. There we go. Perfect.

01:25

Done. Now, we can pretty much just copy what we have done here. Because when we define an image for a variation, we'll want the original size.

01:35

But we'll definitely want the thumbnail that we can show in the cart. And we also do want a fallback image for each of these as well, just in case we haven't added them. So we're going to go ahead and copy pretty much

01:45

and paste these into this variation class. Now, the reason this isn't working is we've not pulled in our media class here and our manipulations class. But let's do that now.

01:56

And we're pretty much ready to go. So let's head over to phpArtist and Tynker. And let's go ahead and add them in. So let's remind ourselves of the ID 3, 4, 5, and 6.

02:06

So let's do 3 and 4 first. So we can go and say variation and variation find 3. And then we can say, let's just pull up the command from before, variation add media.

02:24

And we're going to add the black one to that. And that's pretty much it. And we'll do the same thing for 4. So again, just pull up the same command and run that.

02:36

And let's go over and just double check this in our media table. So we've got 3 and 4 here with a black shoe, which is great. We've got the media conversions in there, which is good because we pretty much always want to display them.

02:47

Let's quickly do the same for 5 and 6. And we're done. So 5 is now going to be the white shoe. So let's add that in there.

02:58

And we'll do the same thing for 6. There we go. So that is pretty much it. Now, if you want to apply these without having

03:06

to run these commands, which is likely, you can go ahead and do this through something like Laravel Nova with Media Library. Just go ahead and read the docs, and you'll

03:14

be able to integrate that really easily. But just while we're developing, running these commands isn't too bad. And if you only have a few products,

03:21

it's not too bad either. OK, so we have media now attached to each of our variations. Great.

03:27

And when we come to display them in our cart, we will be able to see them small images. And we're going to get started on our cart in the next episode.
