Allow flat rate services to be exported using Features

That would be really smart (flat rates as exportable entities).
It would also allow us to use the inline_conditions module to provide a UI for when a flat rate should apply.

in the meantime, you can use this install task for one-time initialization.

/**
 * Implements hook_install().
 */
function myshop_install() {
  $service = array_merge(
    commerce_flat_rate_service_new(),
    array(
      'name' => 'myshop_flat_rate',
      'title' => 'My Shop Flat rate',
      'display_title' => 'My Shop Flat rate',
      'description' => 'Default flat rate for My Shop.',
    )
  );
  // Will be divided by 100.
  $service['base_rate']['amount'] = '800';
  // The strongarm variable doesn't seem to be initialized properly at this stage.
  $service['base_rate']['currency_code'] = 'EUR';
  commerce_flat_rate_service_save($service);
}

Hi all!

I don't understand everything from this thread (my english is pure), but I have same issue than described in issue title. The flat rate services are exportable with Features, but the rule components are not, because the component name of a flat rate service look like this: commerce_shipping_service_SERVICE_NAME, but the feature creation procedure puts this line in MYFEATURE.info: features[rules_config][] = commerce_flat_rate_services_SERVICE_NAME

commerce_flat_rate_services_SERVICE_NAME named rule component does not exist and MYFEATURE.rules_defaults.inc does not contain $item['commerce_flat_rate_services_SERVICE_NAME'].

I don't understand the way of this mechanism, maybe my problem is Features/Commerce shipping/Commerce related

I think this patch solves this problem: https://www.drupal.org/node/1402762#comment-6591174

I'm using commerce kickstart and it contains the previous version of this patch: https://www.drupal.org/node/1402762#comment-5985864 or something similar...

Adding related ticket.

I just had a project recently where I exported flat rate services just fine via the Commerce Features module. Am I missing something?
