Introduction:** The Online Shopping System is a Python-based application that simulates an online shopping platform where users can browse products, place orders, and track their orders. The system is designed to serve both customers and administrators, providing a seamless shopping experience and efficient management of product inventory and orders. **2. Features:** - **Customer Features:** - Browse Products: Customers can view a list of available products categorized by type, such as smartphones, watches, and AirPods. - Place Orders: Customers can select products, specify quantities, and place orders. - Track Orders: Customers can track the status of their orders using order IDs. - **Administrator Features:** - Login Authentication: Administrators can securely log in to access administrative functionalities. - Stock Management: Administrators can update product inventory, including adding new products and adjusting quantities. - Order Status Update: Administrators can update the status of orders, such as marking them as shipped or out for delivery. **3. Implementation:** - **Data Handling:** - CSV files are used to store product data, including product details and prices. - Separate CSV files are maintained for product data and pricing information to facilitate easy updates and modifications. - **User Interface:** - The user interface is text-based and interactive, allowing users to navigate through product listings and perform actions such as placing orders and updating inventory. - User inputs are validated to ensure data integrity and prevent errors. - **Security:** - User authentication is implemented for administrators to ensure secure access to administrative functionalities. - Sensitive information such as admin credentials is stored securely and not hard-coded in the source code. **4. Future Enhancements:** - **Database Integration:** Migrate from CSV files to a database management system for improved scalability and performance. - **Graphical User Interface (GUI):** Develop a GUI-based interface to enhance user experience and visual appeal. - **Payment Integration:** Integrate payment processing functionality to enable secure online transactions. - **Order Management System:** Implement a comprehensive order management system to handle order processing, tracking, and fulfillment. ## Source Code Details 1. **Imports:** - The code imports necessary modules: `csv` for CSV file handling, `randint` from `random` module to generate random order IDs, and `tabulate` for tabular data formatting. 2. **Data Initialization:** - Admin credentials and product data are initialized from CSV files. 3. **Functions:** `read_data_from_csv(filename)`: Reads data from a CSV file and initializes a dictionary. `Id_Generator()`: Generates a random order ID. - `display_product_list(product, prices)`: Displays a list of products with their prices. `user_input_saver(...)`: Saves user input data to a CSV file. `check_availability_and_order(...)`: Checks product availability, takes user input for ordering, and updates the order details. `shopping_process()`: Initiates the shopping process for customers. `login_process()`: Handles the login process for admins. `write_data_to_csv(filename, data)`: Writes data to a CSV file. `stock_updation(product_list, filename)`: Updates product stock. `stock_upadation_Menu()`: Displays a menu for stock updation. `update_order_status(order_id, new_status)`: Updates order status. `track_order(order_id)`: Tracks an order based on the order ID. `status_updation_menu()`: Displays a menu for order status updation. 4. **Main Interface:** - Prompts the user to choose between customer and admin access. - If customer access is chosen, it allows the user to browse products or track orders. - If admin access is chosen, it requires authentication and allows the admin to update product stock or order status. 5. **File Structure:** - Describes the structure of files used in the project. 6. **Usage Instructions:** To run your code, follow these instructions: 1. **Ensure Python is Installed:** Make sure you have Python installed on your system. You can download it from [Python's official website](https://www.python.org/downloads/) if you haven't already. 2. **Install Required Dependencies:** - Open a terminal or command prompt. - Navigate to the directory where your code is located. - Run the following command to install the required dependencies: ```bash pip install tabulate ``` 4. **Run the Main Python Script:** - In the same terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory containing your Python script (`main.py`). - Run the script using the following command: ```bash main.py ``` 5. **Choose User Type:** - You'll be prompted to choose between customer and admin access. - Enter `1` for admin access or `2` for customer access. 6. **Follow On-Screen Instructions:** - Depending on your choice: - If you choose customer access, you can browse products, place orders, and track them. - If you choose admin access, you can update product stocks or order statuses. 7. **Provide Inputs:** - Follow the on-screen instructions to input relevant information, such as product choices, quantities, and login credentials. 8. **Exit the Program:** - To exit the program, follow the provided exit options. 9. **Review Output:** - After performing actions like placing orders or updating stocks/statuses, review the outputs on the console or in the generated CSV files. 10. **Note:** - Make sure to keep the CSV files (`iPhoneData.csv`, `AirpodesData.csv`, `WatchData.csv`, `iPhonePriceData.csv`, `AirpodesPriceData.csv`, `WatchPriceData.csv`, `DataBase.csv`) in the same directory as your Python script. By following these steps, you should be able to run your code and interact with the SAT Mobile Shopee application. # Contributors - [Atharva Kote](https://github.com/Atharvkote) - [Sairaj Naikwade](https://github.com/sairajnaikwade) - [Tushar Nagare](https://github.com/Tusshar123) # Conclusion The Online Shopping System is a versatile and scalable solution for managing online retail operations. By leveraging Python and various modules, the system provides a robust platform for users to browse products, place orders, and track their purchases. With further enhancements and refinements, the system has the potential to become a comprehensive e-commerce solution catering to a wide range of businesses and customers. ## đź”— Links [](https://t.me/AtharvKote) [](https://www.linkedin.com/in/atharva-kote) [](https://twitter.com/ImAtharva81) [](mailto:[email protected]) [](discordapp.com/user/1238159826748702824) [](https://www.instagram.com/___atharv_81?igsh=MWxseGoyYmlianp6ZQ==) <p align="center"> <img src="https://capsule-render.vercel.app/api?type=waving&color=gradient&height=100§ion=footer"/> </p>
