Duplicating shipping details from an Order into a Cart
# Duplicating shipping details from an Order into a Cart

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-11-03)

Further from yesterday's Duplicate an existing Order as a new Cart in Commerce I need to step in front of MultiAdd to set up a couple of other things - such as to duplicate the Shipping details from the old order to the new cart.
I have been trying to do it as follows:
public function actionReorder()
{
    // basic security precautions
        $this->requirePostRequest();

    // get the current cart
        $cart = craft()->commerce_cart->getCart();

    // get the fields passed to us in the form
        $oldOrderNumber = craft()->request->getPost('oldOrderNumber');

    // get the 'old' order
        $oldOrder = craft()->commerce_orders->getOrderByNumber($oldOrderNumber);

    // set the shipping etc on the cart to the same as the old order
        $cart->shippingAddressId    = $oldOrder->shippingAddressId;
        $cart->shippingAddress      = $oldOrder->shippingAddress;
        $cart->shippingMethodHandle = $oldOrder->shippingMethodHandle;

    // ok now pass it all over to the multiAdd controller...
        craft()->runController('multiAdd/multiAdd');
}

This doesn't work because 

Property "Craft\Commerce_OrderModel.shippingMethodHandle" is read only.

I have also tried
if (!craft()->commerce_cart->setShippingMethod($cart, $oldOrder->shippingMethod, $error)) {
    $cart->addError('shippingMethod', $error);
    LogicPlugin::log("error adding shipping method to cart: " . $error, LogLevel::Error);
}

instead of $cart->shippingMethodHandle = $oldOrder->shippingMethodHandle;
But that doesn't appear to work either. It tells me that the Shipping method not available.
How should I go about doing this?
