Favorites Menu Implementation

Favorites menu implementation

• new menu file will be needed
• new database table for the favorites items
• favorites products should be read dunamically, based on currently loged in user

1. New database table favourite_products added
2. main_menu.py:
   • When the favourites button is clicked it calls a function open_favourites_func(). This function returns another function open_favourites(). This way the favourites_layout shows and the categories one hides.
3. favourites.py:
   • The implemented inner join query gives us all the products that the user ('pesho') has marked as "favourite". All the layouts and labels of each product are made again.
4. Need to do:
   • When the user has marked more than 3 products as favourite, they need to display in a scroll menu (or something else that will arrange them).

Wow, really god job! That one is by the books!

One idea that comes to my mind, to solve the issue with more than 3 products is, instead of having a groupbox where to push the labels for the products, to leave a GridLayout(remove the current groupbox) and every product to appear on coordinates(x, y). They inside a for loop, which will iterate all the favorites products for the currently logged in user, we can create new product layout on GridLayout(x, y+1) AND when we get to y = 2(third product on a row) then we can increase the x variable by 1, which means we will start drawing products on the next row.

That way we will create a grid with N numbers of rows, each row containg 3 columns. The questions is how the framework with draw them below 🤔

• favourites.py: When the button favourites is clicked it goes to a function redirect_to_delete_postgres_func. Then the func delete_from_favourite_products is called and it executes a query to delete the product.
