DEPRECATION WARNING
This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.
Introduction to Shopware connector¶
This extension connects the shopware shopsystem with TYPO3 CMS. It retrieves data from shopware REST-API and provides many frontend plugins to show or list shopware data like articles, categories, etc on your TYPO3 website.
The extension was build from scratch and is based on a clean extensible architecture. Extbase and Fluid were used for the implementation of the frontend plugins. Shopware data will be cached via TYPO3`s caching framework to prevent multiple uneccessary API-Calls and also boost up the frontend rendering.
Important
The px_shopware TYPO3 extension needs the Shopware plugin “TYPO3-Connector” in your shop system. Download the plugin here from our github reposititory.
