Hi I'm looking for a Java open source shopping cart framework.

I have had a look at KonaKart and OfBiz but I'm looking for other examples for comparison.

I will need to have the search on the cart use Lucene to search through the PDFs so that keywords from the documents can return results.

So I will need to be able to 'hook" into the search of the framework to modify it.

Thanks

Plenty of good suggestions in this SO post.

E-Commerce solutions (perhaps too heavy for your purposes) include JadaSite and OpenEdit.

That is where I had found out about KonaKart and OfBiz but I am interested in other options too and prefer to be in Java

There are some FOSS e-commerce suites in Java; see updated answer above.

Please check out SoftSlate Commerce. It uses Lucene, and is pretty easy to extend to suit whatever needs you have. Full source code comes with the $495 Standard Edition license.

I decided on Konakart, as it contained most of the functionality required and also the company were open to developing the search functionality required!

you can also use Jadasite. 100% java based. It has real time currency conversion and all. Also it lets you choose gateways depending on currency.
