Silverstripe Handler

Question

I am trying to find ways to do a piece of functionality which is nice to have. Not sure how to approach. Proper silverstripe way would be good.

I have a website (built in Silverstripe)that has multiple types of products, example

• Payment type (Products that needs payment)
• Email type (Products that does not need payment but just requires users email)
• Just delivery type (Products that does not need payment but need users address)

The idea is, users can add anytype of product to the basket and basket summary shows all the different types of products the user has added to basket. Once the user clicks checkout button , each type of product has its own handler to do the checkout.

How can i achieve this? Ideas please i.e how should I structure/architect it.

Ideally I would like to have this URL structure

http://example.com/orders/checkout/Payment

http://example.com/orders/checkout/Email

http://example.com/orders/checkout/Delivery

I'd recommend that you start with an existing SilverStripe e-commerce module.

• https://github.com/silvershop/silvershop-core
• http://www.silvercart.org/
• https://github.com/sunnysideup/silverstripe-ecommerce

SilverShop is my personal preference.
