Shopify Node App Starter

This is a starter template for embedded shopify apps based on the shopify cli node app.

Contributions to create the perfect shopify app boilerplate are very welcome! 🤩

Changes to the default Shopify node app starter

• Updated dependencies (@apollo/client instead of react-apollo, react 17, next.js 12, polaris 7)
• MongoDB session storage already set up (full credit goes to Harshdeep Singh Hura)
• Ready to use online and offline accesstokens simultaneously
• App context set up. Can be used to store data, that only needs to be fetched once, but is needed in multiple places
• Link component to convert <a> tags to Next Links for relative paths
• Routepropagation set up
• Example API with verifyRequest() is set up
• Relay pagination example
• Webhook registration and persistance after server restart
• Examples for creating, displaying and canceling of app subscriptions
• Loading screen while the app context is loading

Boilerplate to create an embedded Shopify app made with Node, Next.js, Shopify-koa-auth, Polaris and App Bridge React.

TODO

• GDPR webhooks

Installation

• Fork and clone repo
• Create an app in the shopify partner dashboard
• Run shopify app connect to connect the app to shopify
• Run npm install to install dependencies
• Add ENCRYTION_STRING and MONGO_URL to your .env file (.env example is in the root directory)
• Run shopify app serve to start dev enviroment

Requirements

• If you don’t have one, create a Shopify partner account.
• If you don’t have one, create a Development store where you can install and test your app.
• In the Partner dashboard, create a new app. You’ll need this app’s API credentials during the setup process.

Usage

Same usage as apps created with the Shopify CLI

Important

API routes have to start with /api/. All relative paths starting with /api/ will be converted to absolute paths by a next.js rewrite
