Transcript
00:00
Before we move on to properly checking out and creating an order, let's just tidy up the fact that if we have no products in our cart and we head over to the checkout page, we see an error here. That's just because first of all, we have this amount
00:14
which is a null value being passed into our money helper. But second of all, the fact that our cart is empty, there is no need to be in the checkout. So what we're going to do is head over and create out some middleware
00:26
which is going to prevent a user from accessing the checkout if there are no items in their cart. That makes sense. And we'll be creating similar middleware along the way
00:35
just to control access and tidy up some of our cart stuff. So let's go ahead and make out some middleware in here. And we will just call this exactly what it does. Redirect if cart empty.
00:48
And let's create that out. So we're going to go ahead and open that up. Redirect if cart empty. And the first thing that we need is our cart.
00:54
Now we can't inject that into the handle method. So we're going to have to go ahead and create a constructor out in here. And we're going to have to pull this in. So let's say protected cart interface and cart.
01:07
Let's just pull this up to tidy that up as well. Great. And let's just make sure that's pulled in. Now we can go ahead and here add a check,
01:16
redirect the user if there are no items in their cart. So for this, let's think about what we need to do. It's very simple. This cart.
01:26
And if we head over to our cart implementation really quickly over in app and cart, we know that we have this is empty method that we implemented earlier. So we can use that is empty. And if it is empty, we want to go ahead and redirect the user over to somewhere.
01:45
So let's redirect them back to the cart just so they know that their cart's empty. Now over in routes and web, let's just make sure we rename these. So we didn't. So let's give this a name of cart.
01:59
And there we go. There is our middleware. So there's a couple of ways that we could use this middleware. We could register it over in our kernel under this route middleware section.
02:07
But to be honest, we can just use the full class name inside of the constructor in the checkout index controller. So let's head straight over to there, create our constructor, and then apply this middleware directly with this class name.
02:21
So let's say this middleware. And in here, we're just going to say redirect if cart empty. There it is. And just provide the fully qualified class name to that.
02:32
And that should be enough to make this work. So our cart is obviously empty. Let's head over to the checkout page. Sure enough, we're redirected back over to cart.
