Calculating shipping cost
=========================

.. danger::

   We're sorry but **this documentation section is outdated**. Please have that in mind when trying to use it.

Calculating shipping cost is as simple as using the ``sylius.shipping_calculator`` service and calling ``calculate`` method on ``ShippingSubjectInterface``.

Let's calculate the cost of existing shipment.

.. code-block:: php

    public function myAction()
    {
        $calculator = $this->get('sylius.shipping_calculator');
        $shipment = $this->get('sylius.repository.shipment')->find(5);

        echo $calculator->calculate($shipment); // Returns price in cents. (integer)
    }

What has happened?

* The delegating calculator gets the **ShippingMethod** from the **ShippingSubjectInterface** (Shipment).
* Appropriate **Calculator** instance is loaded, based on the **ShippingMethod.calculator** parameter.
* The ``calculate(ShippingSubjectInterface, array $configuration)`` is called, where configuration is taken from **ShippingMethod.configuration** attribute.
