Laravel Shopping Cart Tutorial Part 2
In the second part of this tutorial, we will see how to add products to the cart, update the product's quantity in the cart, and remove a product from the cart.
Create the controller
Next, we create a new controller 'CartController' Inside we have functions that fetch add updates and remove products from the cart.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Models\Product;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class CartController extends Controller
{
//
public function addToCart(Product $product)
{
\Cart::add(array(
'id' => $product->id,
'name' => $product->product_name,
'price' => $product->product_price,
'quantity' => 1,
'attributes' => array(),
'associatedModel' => $product
));
return redirect()->route('cart.index');
}
public function cartItems()
{
$items = \Cart::getContent();
return view('cart')->with([
'items' => $items
]);
}
public function incrementQ(Product $product)
{
\Cart::update($product->id, array(
'quantity' => 1,
));
return redirect()->route('cart.index');
}
public function decrementQ(Product $product)
{
\Cart::update($product->id, array(
'quantity' => -1,
));
return redirect()->route('cart.index');
}
public function removeFromCart(Product $product)
{
\Cart::remove($product->id);
return redirect()->route('cart.index');
}
}
Create the home page
Next, let's update the 'welcome' page and add the code below to fetch and display all the products from the database.

Fetch and Display products from the cart
Next, to fetch and display products from the cart, let's create a new file inside views 'cart.blade.php' inside we fetch and display all the products from the cart with the total amount to pay, we have also links that update and remove products from the cart.

Add routes
Finally, we add the routes we need.
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\CartController;
use App\Http\Controllers\ProductController;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider and all of them will
| be assigned to the "web" middleware group. Make something great!
|
*/
Route::get('/', [ProductController::class, 'index'])->name('home');
Route::get('add/{product}/cart', [CartController::class, 'addToCart'])->name('add.cart');
Route::get('cart', [CartController::class, 'cartItems'])->name('cart.index');
Route::get('increment/{product}', [CartController::class, 'incrementQ'])->name('quantity.inc');
Route::get('decrement/{product}', [CartController::class, 'decrementQ'])->name('quantity.dec');
Route::get('remove/{product}', [CartController::class, 'removeFromCart'])->name('remove.cart');
