This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

GLS connection for the Taxonomy Modeller (WordPress plugin).

Status 0.0.3 (needs modeller 0.1.89 and Taxmod Mail 0.6.0 or later): reads GLS parcel notices from the mailbox of Taxmod Mail and hands them to the modeller's inbox. A notice carries no shop order number; the modeller gives it to the order with the same parcel number, from whatever shop (D-1017, D-1020), and never creates an order from it.

Mail (subject) Status
«Ihr Paket von » (sender will hand it over soon) shipped
«Ihr Paket von ist unterwegs» shipped
«Ihr Paket von wurde durch GLS zugestellt» delivered
«Ihr Änderungsauftrag für die Zustellung …» (drop-off permit) nothing

The parcel number is read from the tracking link gls-group.eu/track/<number>. The shipper's «Referenz» is not used yet.

API (0.0.2): the tab GLS stores client key and secret of an app in the GLS developer portal (secret sealed in the modeller's vault, D-951; or TAXGLS_CLIENT_KEY / TAXGLS_CLIENT_SECRET / TAXGLS_ENVIRONMENT in wp-config.php). «Test connection» asks the Authentication API v2 for a token and reads GLS's test parcel QAS_0000008 over «Track And Trace V1».

Tracking (0.0.3): other modules ask apply_filters('taxmod_gls_tracking', null, $parcelNumber, 'stored'|'refresh') and get the same array as from the DHL module's taxmod_dhl_tracking (stage announced|shipped|delivered|problem, status, events). stored never calls GLS; refresh does, at most 400 calls a day (quota 500). A parcel in a ParcelShop counts as shipped, not delivered. Specification: Track And Trace V1 1.0.7 from the GLS developer portal. Every connection is a module of its own (D-1006, concept).

Setup

  1. Install and set up Taxmod Mail (mailbox access).
  2. Activate this module. Taxonomy Modeller → Configuration → GLS shows under «Mail» which mails it reads.

Development

composer install, then vendor/bin/phpunit (core suite, no WordPress). The sample mails in tests/Core/fixtures are synthetic.
