Turn the standard Odoo eCommerce shop into a **read-only product catalog**:
visitors can browse, search and open product pages, but the standard
``website_sale`` shopping cart is not reachable any more.
It is meant for sites where the actual ordering happens somewhere else — for
example the group order flow of ``website_sale_aplicoop`` (``/eskaera``), a
quotation request form, or an offline/phone process — while the public shop is
still useful as a catalog.
What the module does
====================
- Hides the cart link and badge from all 12 standard website header styles
(default, mobile, hamburger, stretch, vertical, search, boxed, sidebar and
sales one to four).
- Removes the "Add to cart" quick-add area from the product listing cards.
- Neutralizes the standard cart endpoints:
- ``/shop/cart`` and ``/shop/cart/update`` redirect to a configurable URL.
- ``/shop/cart/update_json`` returns an empty payload (no cart is written).
- ``/shop/cart/quantity`` always returns ``0``.
- ``/shop/cart/clear`` does nothing.
Only the **cart** is disabled. Product listing, search, product pages and the
rest of ``website_sale`` are untouched. Checkout and payment routes are left
untouched too; with an empty cart they redirect back to the cart route, and
therefore to the configured URL.
Configuration
=============
Go to *Website > Configuration > Settings > Disabled Cart* and set
**Cart Redirect URL**: the internal path visitors land on when they reach a
standard cart URL.
- Default: ``/shop``.
- Stored in the system parameter ``website_sale_disable_cart.redirect_url``.
- Only site-internal paths are accepted. Absolute URLs (``https://...``) and
protocol relative URLs (``//host/path``) are ignored — otherwise the shop
could be used as an open redirect — as is any path under ``/shop/cart``,
which would loop back into a disabled route. In those cases ``/shop`` is
used and a warning is logged.
Example: on a site running ``website_sale_aplicoop``, set it to ``/eskaera`` so
that every standard cart URL lands on the group order flow.
Usage
=====
There is nothing to do at runtime: once installed, the cart is disabled site
wide. To go back to the standard behaviour, uninstall the module — all template
modifications are removed with it and the ``website_sale`` cart works again as
usual.
Files involved
==============
- ``controllers/website_sale.py`` — overrides the ``website_sale`` cart routes.
- ``views/website_sale_disable_cart_templates.xml`` — templates that hide the
cart UI.
- ``models/res_config_settings.py`` and ``views/res_config_settings_views.xml``
— the redirect URL setting.

**History:**
This behaviour was originally implemented inside ``website_sale_aplicoop`` and
was extracted into this module so that it can be installed and configured
independently of the group order flow.
