export const config: VendureConfig = {
  // .. config options
  plugins: [
    BackInStockPlugin.init({ enableEmail: true, limitEmailToStock: false }),

      handlers: [...defaultEmailHandlers, backInStockNotificationHandler]
    )},

      route: 'admin',
      port: 3002,
      adminUiConfig: {
          apiHost: 'http://localhost',
          apiPort: 3000,
      },
      app: compileUiExtensions({
          outputPath: path.join(__dirname, '../admin-ui'),
          extensions: [BackInStockPlugin.uiExtensions],
          devMode: IS_DEV,
      }),
    }),
  ],
};

\ Create a template file for the Back-In-Stock email in static/email/templates/back-in-stock/body.hbs

{{> header title="{{productVariant.name}} - Back In Stock!" }}

<mj-section background-color="#fafafa">
    <mj-column>
        <mj-text color="#525252">
            {{ productVariant.name }} is now back in stock!
        </mj-text>

        <mj-button font-family="Helvetica"
                   background-color="#f45e43"
                   color="white"
                   href="{{ url }}/{{ productVariant.product.slug }}">
            View Product
        </mj-button>

    </mj-column>
</mj-section>

{{> footer }}

How it works

For any product that is out of stock, customers can signup to be notified via email when the product is back in stock. When a product is replenished, the plugin gets active subscriptions for it and sends email notifications.

Disable email notifications by setting enableEmail to false in plugin init \ For limiting notifications sent to the amount of saleable stock set limitEmailToStock to true
