CustomeEcommerceHandler

Here's the link to the documentation. It walks you through creating a custom handler. If you're using v7, you can check it out here.

From what I understand, the item that you add an event handler to has to be an actual class or object in kentico. For example, you could override the userinfo class by doing UserInfo.TYPEInfo.events.Insert.After Ecommerce isn't a class, but ShippingInfo or ProductInfo are classes.

What specific object do you want to override or handle? Product creation? Order Creation? Shipping?

I wanted to be able to capture the post-order event so I can enter the information into Authorize.Net's Customer Information Manager. This is what I ended up with:

public override void Init() { // Assigns a handler to the Insert.After event for the Ecommerce object type // This event occurs after the creation of every new order CMS.Ecommerce.OrderInfo.TYPEINFO.Events.Insert.After += Insert_After; }

    void Insert_After(object sender, ObjectEventArgs e)
    {
        AuthorizeNet.CustomerGateway gateway = new CustomerGateway("", "", ServiceMode.Test);
        CMS.Ecommerce.OrderInfo orderInfo = (CMS.Ecommerce.OrderInfo)sender;
        int userID = orderInfo.OrderCompletedByUserID;

        CMS.Membership.UserInfo Ui = (CMS.Membership.UserInfo)CMS.Membership.UserRoleInfoProvider.GetInfoById(MembershipInfo.OBJECT_TYPE, userID);

        AuthorizeNet.Customer customer = gateway.GetCustomer(Ui.GetCIMid().ToString());
        if (customer == null)
        {
            //  creating the profile, we add billing address,  shipping address
            customer = gateway.CreateCustomer(Ui.Email, "Auto created " + DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss"));
            customer.ID = userID.ToString();
            AuthorizeNet.Address shipping = new AuthorizeNet.Address();
            shipping.City = orderInfo.OrderShippingAddress.AddressCity;
            CMS.Globalization.CountryInfo ciShipping = CMS.Globalization.CountryInfoProvider.GetCountryInfo(orderInfo.OrderShippingAddress.AddressCountryID);
            shipping.Country = ciShipping.CountryDisplayName;
            shipping.Street = orderInfo.OrderShippingAddress.AddressLine1 + ", " + orderInfo.OrderShippingAddress.AddressLine2;
            shipping.Zip = orderInfo.OrderShippingAddress.AddressZip;
            List<AuthorizeNet.Address> sAddys = new List<AuthorizeNet.Address>();
            sAddys.Add(shipping);
            customer.ShippingAddresses = sAddys;
            AuthorizeNet.Address billing = new AuthorizeNet.Address();

            billing.City = orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressCity;
            CMS.Globalization.CountryInfo ciBilling = CMS.Globalization.CountryInfoProvider.GetCountryInfo(orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressCountryID);
            billing.Country = ciBilling.CountryDisplayName;
            billing.Street = orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressLine1 + "," + orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressLine2;
            StateInfo si = StateInfoProvider.GetStateInfo(orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressStateID);
            billing.State = si.StateDisplayName;
            billing.Zip = orderInfo.OrderBillingAddress.AddressZip;
            customer.BillingAddress = billing;
            gateway.UpdateCustomer(customer);
        }
    }
