bigcommerce-api-js-jw v1.0.7

BigCommerce JS API

This is a collection of clients, designed to connect to the Big Commerce APIs. There is one client per API.

https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api-reference/

Getting started

The clients are already built and tested, though this project is designed to easily rebuild and update clients as changes are made to the published BC apis. To get started though, that is not required.

• Clone this repo
• Set your store up as described under Authentication
• Use yarn/npm to install dependencies
• Run the test suites

To run the full suite of tests:

cd clients
yarn install
yarn test

Or to test one api, for instance:

cd clients/Themes
yarn install
yarn test

Or one method:

cd clients/WishlistsApi
yarn install
yarn test --grep wishlistsGet

Authentication

• Create your BigCommerce Store and App if you haven't already
• Obtain your store hash, client id and access token
  • BigCommerce Authentication
• Rename gulpfile.config.sample.json to gulpfile.config.json and fill in the values

Including a client in your project

Create a new project or add deps to an existing project

npm init
npm install --save babel-cli babel-plugin-transform-builtin-extend babel-preset-env babel-preset-stage-0 big-commerce-js

Add authentication config.js

const config = {
  clientId: '<your client id>',
  accessToken: '<your access token>',
  storeId: '<your store id>',
};

module.exports = config;

Sample code index.js

import { Wishlists, BCApiClient } from 'bigcommerce-api-js';
import config from './config';

const api = new Wishlists.WishlistsApi(new BCApiClient(config));

const getWishlists = async () => {
  try {
    const wishlists = await api.wishlistsGet();
    console.info(wishlists);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
}

getWishlists();

Run sample code

babel-node index.js

Updating the client libraries

You can either update a single library, or all of them. The spec files are grabbed from bigcommerce servers, and processed on the fly, so there is no need to download or maintain them. The swagger codegen tool will also be downloaded automatically if needed.

npm install
gulp buildAll
cd clients && npm install

or

gulp buildOne --name StoreInfoApi

Adding a new API

Make sure it is in the gulpfile.esm.js and in the index.js. Update as above.

Publishing

Update the version number in package.json.

npm install
gulp buildAll
cd clients && npm install && cd ..
npm run build
npm publish
