Example

use Vitalybaev\GoogleMerchant\Product;
use Vitalybaev\GoogleMerchant\Product\Shipping;
use Vitalybaev\GoogleMerchant\Product\Availability\Availability;

// Create feed object
$feed = new Feed("My awesome store", "https://example.com", "My awesome description");

// Put products to the feed ($products - some data from database for example)
foreach ($products as $product) {
    $item = new Product();
    
    // Set common product properties
    $item->setId($product->id);
    $item->setTitle($product->title);
    $item->setDescription($product->description);
    $item->setLink($product->getUrl());
    $item->setImage($product->getImage());
    if ($product->isAvailable()) {
        $item->setAvailability(Availability::IN_STOCK);
    } else {
        $item->setAvailability(Availability::OUT_OF_STOCK);
    }
    $item->setPrice("{$product->price} USD");
    $item->setGoogleCategory($product->category_name);
    $item->setBrand($product->brand->name);
    $item->setGtin($product->barcode);
    $item->setCondition('new');
    
    // Some additional properties
    $item->setColor($product->color);
    $item->setSize($product->size);

    // Shipping info
    $shipping = new Shipping();
    $shipping->setCountry('US');
    $shipping->setRegion('CA, NSW, 03');
    $shipping->setPostalCode('94043');
    $shipping->setLocationId('21137');
    $shipping->setService('UPS Express');
    $shipping->setPrice('1300 USD');
    $item->setShipping($shipping);

    // Set a custom shipping label and weight (optional)
    $item->setShippingLabel('ups-ground');
    $item->setShippingWeight('2.14');

    // Set a custom label (optional)
    $item->setCustomLabel('Some Label 1', 0);
    $item->setCustomLabel('Some Label 2', 1);
    
    // Add this product to the feed
    $feed->addProduct($item);
}

// Here we get complete XML of the feed, that we could write to file or send directly
$feedXml = $feed->build();

Working with attributes

Product class provides several methods for managing various attributes. But it doesn't cover all Google Merchant attributes. In case of nonexistent methods you should use one of the following:

1. $product->setAttribute($attributeName, $attributeValue, $isCData = false) - sets attribute. Replaces old attribute if it existed.
2. $product->addAttribute($attributeName, $attributeValue, $isCData = false) - adds one more attribute's value. For example feed can have multiple additional_image_link attributes.

• Cover all Google Merchant feed properties
