Getting started

Create an account in the ShopAR Dashboard.

Add some models to your account. Make sure the models' plugin SKUs match the product IDs on your website.

Installation

There are two distinct ways of integrating the plugin: via Script tag and via NPM.

via Script tag

Add the following script to your HTML.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/shopar-plugin@{{VERSION}}/dist/shopar-plugin.js"></script>

It is possible to use a different CDN instead of jsDelivr (e.g. cdnjs, unpkg), or even a relative path if the plugin is distributed as a static asset to your app. Just make sure to set the baseUrl parameter accordingly (see setup options for more details).

via NPM

Add shopar-plugin to your project:

npm install shopar-plugin
# or
yarn add shopar-plugin

Usage

Paste the following snippet in your HTML.

<script>
  ShopAR.plugin.setup({
    apiKey: 'API_KEY',
    sku: 'PRODUCT_ID',
    targetElement: 'TARGET_ELEMENT',
  });
</script>

• Replace API_KEY with your API key. You can find it in the ShopAR Dashboard.
• Replace PRODUCT_ID with the ID of the product. Make sure it matches the plugin SKU of the model in the ShopAR Dashboard.
• Replace TARGET_ELEMENT with the HTML element you wish to embed the plugin's UI into.

To change the look-and-feel of the plugin's UI, modify the following CSS classes:

.shopar-btn-container {
  /* Container for the control buttons. */
}
.shopar-btn {
  /* Control button. */
}

Alternatively, use your own UI:

const shopAR = await ShopAR.plugin.setup({
  // ...
  defaultUI: false,
});

myARButton.onclick = shopAR.launchAR;
my3DButton.onclick = shopAR.launch3D;

myCloseARButton.onclick = shopAR.closeAR;
myClose3DButton.onclick = shopAR.close3D;
// or just:
myCloseButton.onclick = shopAR.close;

If you wish to change the SKU or target element at runtime, simply call setup() with different parameters.
