Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Elastic Path Commerce Cloud JavaScript SDK

npm version License: MIT contributions welcome follow on Twitter

[!IMPORTANT]
This repository has been migrated from @moltin/sdk. If you are a previous user of the Moltin SDK, read our guide to learn more about migrating your implementation to this codebase

A simple to use API interface to help get you off the ground quickly and efficiently with your Elastic Path Commerce Cloud JavaScript apps.

📚 API reference — 📚 Elastic Path Commerce Cloud

🛠 Installation

Install the package from npm and import in your project.

npm install --save @elasticpath/js-sdk

⛽️ Usage

To get started, instantiate a new Elastic Path client with your store credentials.

[!NOTE]
This requires an Elastic Path Commerce Cloud account. You can sign up for a free trial here

// JavaScript
import { gateway as ElasticPathGateway } from '@elasticpath/js-sdk'

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
  client_id: 'XXX'
})

// Node.js
const ElasticPathGateway = require('@elasticpath/js-sdk').gateway

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
  client_id: 'XXX',
  client_secret: 'XXX'
})

Alternatively you can include the UMD bundle via UNPKG like so:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@elasticpath/js-sdk"></script>

<script>
  const ElasticPath = elasticpath.gateway({
    client_id: 'XXX'
  });
</script>

Note: If you're using webpack, you'll need to add the following to your projects configuration file.

node: {
  fs: 'empty'
}

You can now authenticate with the ElasticPath service 🎉

ElasticPath.Authenticate().then(response => {
  console.log('authenticated', response)
})

Check out the API reference to learn more about authenticating and the available endpoints.

Custom Host

If you're an enterprise customer with your own infrastructure, you'll need to specify your API URL when instantiating:

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
  client_id: 'XXX',
  host: 'api.yourdomain.com'
})

Custom Storage

By default the Elastic Path Commerce Cloud SDK persists data to window.localStorage in the browser and node-localstorage in Node. If this doesn't suit your needs you can override the default storage with a MemoryStorageFactory which will persist data for the life cycle of the JavaScript VM:

import { gateway as ElasticPathGateway, MemoryStorageFactory } from '@elasticpath/js-sdk'

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
  client_id: 'XXX',
  storage: new MemoryStorageFactory()
})

Or alternatively, create your own storage factory by passing in an object which implements the following interface:

interface StorageFactory {
  set(key: string, value: string): void;
  get(key: string): string | null;
  delete(key: string): void;
}

Multiple Gateways

You can support multiple gateways with a name property when initializing the gateway.

name should be unique to avoid sharing storage keys with the other gateways of the same name.

import { gateway as EPCCGateway } from "@elasticpath/js-sdk"

const gatewayOne = EPCCGateway({
    name: "my-first-gateway",
    client_id: 'XXX'
})

const gatewayTwo = EPCCGateway({
    name: "my-second-gateway",
    client_id: 'XXX'
})

Storage keys used for storage solutions are prefixed with the name provided and end with the relevant feature e.g. my-first-gateway_ep_cart, my-first-gateway_ep_credentials and my-first-gateway_ep_currency.

If no name property is provided to the EPCCGateway function, the legacy naming is maintained: mcart, epCredentials and mcurrency

Included Headers

There are currently several optional headers you can pass into the configuration, which include application, language and currency.

You can pass them into the config used by the gateway like this:

// JavaScript
import { gateway as ElasticPathGateway } from '@elasticpath/js-sdk'
// const ElasticPathGateway = require('@elasticpath/js-sdk').gateway -> for Node

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
    client_id: 'XXX',
    client_secret: 'XXX'
    currency: 'YEN',
    language: 'en',
    application: 'my-app'
})

Retries

In case the server responds with status 429 - "Too Many Requests" SDK will wait for some time and retry the same API request up to a given number of times. You can fine tune this logic through following config parameters:

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
    client_id: 'XXX',
    client_secret: 'XXX',
    retryDelay: 1000,
    retryJitter: 500,
    fetchMaxAttempts: 4
})

In case of a 429 response SDK will wait for retryDelay milliseconds (default 1000) before attempting to make the same call. If the server responds with 429 again it will wait for 2 * retryDelay ms, then 3 * retryDelay ms and so on. On top of that the random value between 0 and retryJitter (default 500) will be added to each wait. This would repeat up to fetchMaxAttempts (default 4) times.

Throttling (Rate Limiting)

SDK supports throttling through use of throttled-queue library. Unlike the throttle functions of popular libraries, throttled-queue will not prevent any executions. Instead, every execution is placed into a queue, which will be drained at the desired rate limit. You can control throttling through following parameters:

const ElasticPath = ElasticPathGateway({
    client_id: 'XXX',
    client_secret: 'XXX',
    throttleEnabled: true,
    throttleLimit: 3,
    throttleInterval: 125
})

This feature is disabled by default and to enable it you need to set throttleEnabled to true. Once enabled you can use throttleLimit (default 3) and throttleInterval (default 125) to define what is the maximum number of calls per interval. For example setting throttleLimit = 5, throttleInterval = 1000 means maximum of 5 calls per second.

Handling File Upload

Files can be uploaded to the EPCC file service with the ElasticPath.Files.Create method. You should pass a FormData object as described in the documentation.

In a Node.js environment, where you may be using an alternative FormData implementation, you can include a second parameter to represent the Content-Type header for the request. This must be multipart/form-data and must include a boundary. For example, using the form-data package:

const FormData = require('form-data')
const formData = new FormData()
formData.append('file', buffer)

const contentType = formData.getHeaders()['content-type']

ElasticPath.Files.Create(formData, contentType)

Referencing a file stored elsewhere

If you want to create a file by simply referencing a file stored elsewhere, you can use this helper method:

ElasticPath.Files.Link('https://cdn.external-host.com/files/filename.png')

Just pass the URL to the Link method and creation will be handled for you.

TypeScript Support

The Elastic Path Commerce Cloud JavaScript SDK is fully supported in Typescript.

Imported module will contain all interfaces needed to consume backend services. i.e:

import * as elasticpath from '@elasticpath/js-sdk';

const product: elasticpath.ProductBase = {...}

If you do not want to use the namespace, you can extend the interfaces and define them yourself, like so:

// You can name the interface anything you like
interface Product extends product.ProductBase {
}

const product: Product = {...}

Here is an example of a simple product creation:

import { ElasticPath, gateway, ProductBase, Resource } from '@elasticpath/js-sdk';

async function main() {
  const g: ElasticPath = gateway({client_id, client_secret});
  const auth = await g.Authenticate();

  const newProduct: ProductBase = {
    type: "product",
    name: "My Product",
    slug: "my-prod",
    sku: "my-prod",
    manage_stock: false,
    description: "Some description",
    status: "draft",
    commodity_type: "physical",
    price: [
      {
        amount: 5499,
        currency: "USD",
        includes_tax: true
      }
    ]
  };

  const nP: Resource<Product> = await g.Products.Create(newProduct);
}

You can also extend any base interface compatible with flows to create any custom interfaces that you might be using by re-declaring @elasticpath/js-sdk module. Following example adds several properties to ProductsBase interface that correspond to flows added to the backend.

In your project add a definition file (with a .d.ts extension) with a following code:

import * as elasticpath from '@elasticpath/js-sdk';

declare module '@elasticpath/js-sdk' {

  interface Weight {
    g: number;
    kg: number;
    lb: number;
    oz: number;
  }

  interface ProductBase {
    background_color: string;
    background_colour: string | null;
    bulb: string;
    bulb_qty: string;
    finish: string;
    material: string;
    max_watt: string;
    new: string | null;
    on_sale: string | null;
    weight: Weight;
  }

}

This will affect base interface and all other Product interfaces that inherit from base interface so added properties will be present when creating, updating, fetching products.
