ecommerce-app-base

@contentful/ecommerce-app-base is a library that helps you to quickly build an app to integrate your e-commerce system of choice with Contentful. Many e-commerce integrations are very similar, therefore this library provides the boilerplate for your app and you only need to add the code for your specific service.

This library creates an app which can be used in the entry field location to select stock keeping units (sku) from your e-commerce service. The library also provides a configuration screen for an easy customization.

Usage

import { setup } from '@contentful/ecommerce-app-base';

setup({
  makeCTA: () => 'Select products',

  ],
  validateParameters: () => null,
  fetchProductPreviews: async (skus) => {
      const responess = await Promise.all(
          skus.map(sku => fetch(`https://example.com/products/${sku}`))
      );
      return responses.map(response => response.json());
  },
