commerce-sdk

The Salesforce Commerce SDK allows easy interaction with the Salesforce B2C Commerce platform APIs on the Node.js runtime. ​

Prerequisites

Download and install Node.js and npm here. ​

Note: Only Node.js version 10 and 12 LTS are supported. Other versions can cause unexpected results. To use a different version of Node.js for other projects, you can manage multiple versions of Node.js with nvm. ​

Installation

Use npm to install the Commerce SDK. ​

npm install commerce-sdk

Usage

To use an SDK client, instantiate an object of that client and configure these parameters.

Note: These are optional parameters.

Parameter	Description
baseUri	URL of the service with which the SDK interacts. If the baseUri isn't provided, the default baseUri for the relevant RAML file is used.
clientId	ID of the client account created with Salesforce Commerce.
organizationId	The unique identifier for your Salesforce identity.
shortCode	Region specific merchant ID.
siteId	A unique site ID (for example, RefArch or SiteGenesis).

Sample Code

/**
 * Sample TypeScript code that shows how Commerce SDK can access Salesforce Commerce
 * APIs.
 */
​
// Import the SDK
import { ClientConfig, helpers, Search } from "commerce-sdk";

// Create a configuration to use when creating API clients
const config:ClientConfig = {
    headers: {
        connection: "close"
    },
    parameters: {
        clientId: "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
        organizationId: "f_ecom_bblx_stg",
        shortCode: "0dnz6oep",
        siteId: "RefArch"
    }
}

// Get a JWT to use with Shopper API clients, a guest token in this case
helpers.getShopperToken(config, { type: "guest" }).then(async (token) => {

    try {
        // Add the token to the client configuration
        config.headers.authorization = token.getBearerHeader();

        // Create a new ShopperSearch API client
        const searchClient = new Search.ShopperSearch(config);

        // Search for dresses
        const searchResults = await searchClient.productSearch({
            parameters: {
                q: "dress"
            }
        });

        if (searchResults.total) {
            const firstResult = searchResults.hits[0];
            console.log(`${firstResult.productId} ${firstResult.productName}`);
        } else {
            console.log("No results for search");
        }

        return searchResults;

    } catch (e) {
        console.error(e);
        console.error(await e.response.text());
    }
}).catch(async (e) => {
    console.error(e);
    console.error(await e.response.text());
});

When using an IDE such as VSCode, the autocomplete feature lets you view the available method and class definitions, including parameters. ​

To view the details of a method or a variable, hover over methods and variables. ​

Autocomplete will also show the available properties of the data returned by SDK methods.
