Vue Shopify

Please note - this package is in active development, if you note any issues or encounter any difficulties please feedback I am always open to ways the package can be improved.

Introduction

Vue Shopify abstracts away the setup of storefront api access from your Vue application. Please note: this package only utilises the storefront API, credentials for access are exposed to the client so it would not be secure or safe to use privileged credentials for admin API access via this package, or similar approach to API access in general.

Each method exposed by Vue Shopify returns a promise, which resolves to the requested Shopify data, or rejects (handle accordingly in your logic - most examples in these docs will use async/await within a try/catch block).

Installation

NPM

npm install vue-shopify

Yarn

yarn add vue-shopify

Getting Started

Add the plugin to your app like so:

app.use(vueShopify, {
 storefrontApiToken: 'your Shopify storefront API access token here',
 shopifyStoreName: 'your Shopify store name'
})

Things to note:

• shopifyStoreName is the name of your Shopify store, normally the string that precedes .myshopify.com
• storefrontApiToken is an access token for storefront API access for your Shopify store.

Once added, your main.js file should look something similar to this:

main.js

import { createApp } from  'vue'
import  App  from  './App.vue'
import  vueShopify  from  './plugins/vue-shopify'
import  './assets/main.css'

const  app  =  createApp(App)

app.use(vueShopify, {
  storefrontApiToken: '94e742f3bdd411364a680b2c32ea41d4',
  shopifyStoreName: 'ds-devshop'
})
app.mount('#app')

Usage

Once setup, within any component of your app the package should be accessible at

this.$shopify

Meaning you can make Shopify Storefront API requests in-component by calling something like:

  async exampleMethod() {
	 try {
	   const testData = await this.$shopify.productById({'productId':7197012951295})
	   console.log({testData})
	 }catch(error){
	   throw new Error(error)
	 }
  }
