Makaira Shop Adapters

Hello and welcome to the Makaira shop adapters. These well tested and in production used packages are bringing your new storefront even faster to production.

Intention of the Shop Adapters

Makaira is offering a great e-commerce platform for the online shop of the future. We focus on bringing speed to your online shop and with our marketing and personalization focus we increase your revenue. For our team speed has two perspective:

  1. The speed of the online shop. That is what we're caring about for you.
  2. The speed of developing the storefront. That's what we even want to solve for you as a developer and as a agency by supporting you with pre-developed shop adapters.

Our goal while the development where three points:

  1. Consistency

    All of our costumers have different shop systems and our partner agencies have to support all of them. To keep adopting different shop systems as simple as possible we focused on developing a standardized framework. To achieve this, each adapter has the same base signature. If one of them requires additional information these can be added. In addition we also unified the response data to the basics that a storefront requires to run. But we know if a project is getting more complex it requires more data. Therefore we expose the raw api request responses.

  2. Frontend Stack Independency

    We love developing shop systems. But why should we force you as a developer to adopt our software stack. Therefore all of our adapters are written in javascript without any dependency to frameworks like React or Vue.js. In addition we know that fast websites requires SSR. Thats why we also made all of our adapter SSR compatible.

    But to reduce your work connecting the adapter with your choice of love we added a react layer to get your storefront reactive. If you missing a connector feel free to contribute.

  3. Customizability

    At some point the dependency that was added to a project doesn't fit anymore the need and you have to develop it on your own. That is what we don't want for you. Our goal was to get everything that you have in mind could also be implemented. You are able to extend or overwrite each of the functionalities by defining the parts that you need without having to implement everything from scratch.

Basic usage of a shop adapter

Each of our shop adapter is divided into five sub features. For simplicity we are now using the Local Shop Adapter that is simulating a shop in the localstorage. You are free to choose another one. For detailed information of additional parameters and raw responses see the documentation for the specific shop adapter.

import { StorefrontShopAdapterLocal } from '@makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-local'

const client = new StorefrontShopAdapterLocal()

To accomplish a reactivity of the shop adapters, each of them implements the EventTarget. By this you can register event listener to let your app react to changes in the storefront. You can attach an event listener like in the following example. The events are associated with an action that a shop adapter is possible to perform like login. The events are only triggered in a case of success.

import { UserLoginEvent } from '@makaira/storefront-types'

function setUser({ data: { data, raw } }) {}

client.addEventListener(UserLoginEvent.eventName, setUser)

The signature for each event follows the same standard. All events implement the MessageEvent class and they have the following data properties:

Property Required/Optional Description
data required The unified data response. This is equivalent to the data property returned by an shop adapter action.
raw required The shop adapter specific api response. This is equivalent to the raw property returned by an shop adapter action.

Basic signature of each method

Every callable method shares the same signature. Let us look at the how the user login works.

import { StorefrontShopAdapterLocal } from '@makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-local'

const client = new StorefrontShopAdapterLocal()

const { data, error, raw } = await client.user.login({
  input: { username: 'foo', password: 'bar' },
})

Each method accepts one single argument that is an object. In this you pass an input property that is also an object containing the method specific parameters. In this case it is the username and the password.

Every of our methods return a standardized promise. For us it was important that error handling should not be your part. Therefore every promise resolves and never rejects. The resolved value is an object containing the following properties:

Property Required/Optional Description
data optional The data property returns in each shop adapter the same unified result for each method. By this we achieve the consistency. If an error occur data is undefined.
error optional The error property indicates if an error occured. Depending on the shop adapter implementation the result differs.
raw optional The raw property returns the api results as they got returned. By them you are able to extend the functionality.

How to add a shop adapter to your project

Each of our adapters share the base signature. But some of the requires more parameters like shopify requires an access token. Therefore select your adapter and follow the specific documentation how to add them.

How to extend the shop adapter functionality in the storefront

One of the main goals of the shop adapters is the customizability. This can be archived by extending our base feature classes (cart, user, e.g) where you can then overwrite or attach custom functionality to your needs.

To understand how it is working we go through an example using the local shop adapter.

The default way of creating a shop adapter looks like this.

import { StorefrontShopAdapterLocal } from '@makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-local'

const client = new StorefrontShopAdapterLocal()

To overwrite the feature (cart, user, e.g) you just need to pass the property providers which is an optional object where you can set for each feature a custom provider. To create one you just need to extend the original provider.

import {
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocal,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCart,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCheckout,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalWishlist,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalReview,
} from '@makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-local'
import {
  MakairaShopProviderUser,
  MakairaShopProviderInteractor,
  MakairaLogout,
} from '@makaira/storefront-types'

class CustomUserProvider
  extends StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser
  implements MakairaShopProviderUser
{
  // This is required because super only works on prototype members.
  // Look for more details here: https://basarat.gitbook.io/typescript/future-javascript/arrow-functions#tip-arrow-functions-and-inheritance
  private superLogout = this.logout

  constructor(mainAdapter: StorefrontShopAdapterLocal) {
    super(mainAdapter)
  }

  // We recommend you to use our base signature for each method.
  // When you use typescript you can safely archive this:
  setUserDisplayName: MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
    { inputVariable1: string },
    { returnedVariable1: string },
    { returnedRawVariable1: string },
    Error
  > = async ({ input: { inputVariable1 } }) => {
    return {
      raw: { returnedRawVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      data: { returnedVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      error: undefined,
    }

    // or with error
    return {
      raw: { returnedRawVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      data: undefined,
      error: new Error('some error'),
    }
  }

  // if you don't prefer using our base method signature define it yourself
  setUserDisplayName(inputVariable1: string) {
    return inputVariable1
  }

  // you can even overwrite existing methods
  logout: MakairaLogout<
    { additionalInput1: string },
    { customRawData1: string }
  > = async ({ input: { additionalInput1 } }) => {
    // The super only works on prototype members. Therefore we need to create a copy.
    // Look for more details here: https://basarat.gitbook.io/typescript/future-javascript/arrow-functions#tip-arrow-functions-and-inheritance
    const response = await this.superLogout({ input: {} })

    return {
      data: response.data,
      raw: { customRawData1: additionalInput1 },
      error: response.error,
    }
  }
}

const client = new StorefrontShopAdapterLocal<
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCart,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCheckout,
  CustomUserProvider,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalWishlist,
  StorefrontShopAdapterLocalReview
>({
  providers: {
    user: CustomUserProvider,
  },
})

Contributing

In this section we focus on how to contribute to the shop adapter packages. You can have four choices what you can contribute to:

  1. Add new shop adapter specific feature methods. By this you add to a feature (like the user feature) a new method that does not exists currently and is only specific for this single shop adapter (like a customerReset).
  2. Add new feature methods for all shop adapters. By this you add a feature method that every shop adapter has to support like forgotPassword.
  3. Add new feature for all shop adapters. By this you add a feature that every shop adapter has to support like the user feature.

Understanding the MakairaShopProviderInteractor

The most important part is that each feature method has to implement the MakairaShopProviderInteractor interface. The interface is defined as:

export type MakairaResponse<ResData, ResRawData, ResError extends Error> = {
  data?: ResData // The response data property which the feature method returns. Can be undefined in a case of error or when no data has to be returned.
  raw: ResRawData // the response raw property which the feature method returns. Is by required but you can set it to undefined if you wish.
  error?: ResError // The type of error that could be returned. Currently each feature method uses an instance of Error.
}

export type MakairaShopProviderInteractorContext<Input> = {
  input: Input // The input data which the feature method receives.
}

export type MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
  Input = unknown, // The input data which the feature method receives.
  ResData = unknown, // The response data property which the feature method returns. Can be undefined in a case of error or when no data has to be returned.
  ResRawData = unknown, // the response raw property which the feature method returns. Is by required but you can set it to undefined if you wish.
  ResError extends Error = Error // The type of error that could be returned. Currently each feature method uses an instance of Error.
> = (
  context: MakairaShopProviderInteractorContext<Input>
) => Promise<MakairaResponse<ResData, ResRawData, ResError>>

Sometimes the generic type definition of the MakairaShopProviderInteractor can be a little bit complicated to understand. Therefore here are some common use cases how to use them:

// Defining a feature method without input arguments.

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  foo: MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
    unknown, // To disable any input arguments set here to unknown
    { dataResponseVariable1: string },
    { rawResponseVariable1: string },
    Error
  > = async () => {}
}
// Defining a feature method without return data or raw response.

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  foo: MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
    {inputVariable1:string}
    undefined, // Set this to undefined to have a response data property without data. The data and the raw property can be set independently to undefined.
    undefined, // Set this to undefined to have a response raw property without data. The data and the raw property can be set independently to undefined.
    Error
  > = async () => {}
}
// Adjust the returned type of the error.

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  foo: MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
    unknown,
    { dataResponseVariable1: string },
    { rawResponseVariable1: string },
    NotImplementedError // Adjust this to set a custom error type.
  > = async () => {}
}
// You can create a new type of it that is again generic. This is used when you add new feature methods for all shop adapters. Here is the example of the login

export type MakairaLoginInput<AdditionalInput = unknown> = {
  username: string
  password: string
} & AdditionalInput

export type MakairaLoginResData = {
  user: MakairaUser
}

export type MakairaLogin<
  AdditionalInput = any,
  ResRawData = any,
  ResError extends Error = Error
> = MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
  MakairaLoginInput<AdditionalInput>,
  MakairaLoginResData,
  ResRawData,
  ResError
>

export type LocalLoginRaw = { rawResponseVariable1: string }

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  login: MakairaLogin<unknown, LocalLoginRaw, Error> = async ({
    input: { inputVariable1 },
  }) => {
    if (inputVariable1 !== 'foo') {
      return {
        data: undefined,
        raw: { rawResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
        error: new Error('inputVariable1 does not match foot'),
      }
    }

    return {
      data: { dataResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      raw: { rawResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      error: undefined,
    }
  }
}

How to add new shop adapter specific features methods

To add new shop adapter specific feature method you just need to add the method to the class. In the following we add a feature method foo to the user feature of the local shop adapter.

Like described in this section the feature method must implement the MakairaShopProviderInteractor. It has also to follow the standard.

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  foo: MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
    { inputVariable1: string },
    { dataResponseVariable1: string },
    { rawResponseVariable1: string },
    Error
  > = async ({ input: { inputVariable1 } }) => {
    if (inputVariable1 !== 'foo') {
      return {
        data: undefined,
        raw: { rawResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
        error: new Error('inputVariable1 does not match foot'),
      }
    }

    return {
      data: { dataResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      raw: { rawResponseVariable1: inputVariable1 },
      error: undefined,
    }
  }
}

How to add new feature methods for all shop adapters

To add a new feature method to all shop adapters we have to touch all shop adapter and the main type definition.

At first we modify the @makaira/storefront-types package located in packages/storefront-types.

Choose the feature where you want to add a new feature method. Then go into the file packages/storefront-types/src/providers/<FEATURE>.ts.

As an example we create an deleteUser feature method in the user feature

First we have to create the unified signature definition. By this we enforce each shop provider to implement the same base usage to archive our goal of consistency.

//#region type definition: deleteUser

// To have a better separation and a better reading we first create the input type. These are the input arguments that each shop adapter has to support. By the generic AdditionalInput it is possible to add more shop provider specific input arguments.

export type MakairaDeleteUserInput<AdditionalInput = unknown> = {
  username: string
} & AdditionalInput

// As an alternative where you don't need any basic input arguments you can also write the following:

export type MakairaDeleteUserInput<AdditionalInput = unknown> = AdditionalInput

// Next we define the unified response data. In the case of deleteUser we don't have any response data.
export type MakairaDeleteUserResData = undefined

// If you have any response data you can write the following:
export type MakairaDeleteUserResData = { resDataVariable1: boolean }

// And finally we have to combine everything using the MakairaShopProviderInteractor into a new generic type. This new type is again generic to allow each shop adapter to define it's own additional input arguments and their custom response raw data.
export type MakairaDeleteUser<
  AdditionalInput = any,
  ResRawData = any,
  ResError extends Error = Error
> = MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
  MakairaDeleteUserInput<AdditionalInput>,
  MakairaDeleteUserResData,
  ResRawData,
  ResError
>
//#endregion

After we have added our unified signature for deleteUser we now have to add it to the definition of the feature methods. At the end of each type definition feature file (packages/storefront-types/src/providers/<FEATURE>.ts) is the definition. Add to this the following:

export type MakairaShopProviderUser = {
  login: MakairaLogin
  // ...
  // ...
  deleteUser: MakairaDeleteUser
}

After you added this automatically the typescript definition checkup will fail on each commit until you don't added the shop adapter specific implementation. This is what we will add now. Therefore go into each shop adapter feature and add the implementation. The file is located at packages/<SHOP-ADAPTER>/src/providers/<FEATURE>.ts

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalUser implements MakairaShopProviderUser {
  constructor(private mainAdapter: StorefrontShopAdapterLocal) {}

  // Example 1: base usage without additional input variables and without raw data
  deleteUser: MakairaDeleteUser<unknown, undefined, Error> = async ({
    input: {},
  }) => {
    // your specific implementation ...
  }

  // Example 2: base usage with additional input variables and without raw data
  deleteUser: MakairaDeleteUser<{ confirm: boolean }, undefined, Error> =
    async ({ input: { confirm } }) => {
      // your specific implementation ...
    }

  // Example 3: base usage with additional input variables and with raw data
  deleteUser: MakairaDeleteUser<
    { confirm: boolean },
    { successful: boolean },
    Error
  > = async ({ input: { confirm } }) => {
    // your specific implementation ...
  }
}

We recommend to not inline the types for AdditionalInput and RawResData. Outsource them into the types file packages/<SHOP-ADAPTER>/src/types.ts

How to add new feature for all shop adapters

Adding a complete new feature is a little bit more work to be done.

In the following we add a new feature called order to all shop adapters.

At first we have to create the unified type definition for our new order feature. To do so create the file src/providers/order.ts in @makaira/storefront-types. Like in the section how to add new feature for all shop adapters we create the unified type definition.

import { MakairaShopProviderInteractor } from '../general/shop-provider-interactor'

//#region type definition: getOrders
export type MakairaGetOrdersInput<AdditionalInput = unknown> = {
  user: { id: string }
} & AdditionalInput

export type MakairaGetOrdersResData = {
  orders: { id: string; products: MakairaProduct[] }
}

export type MakairaGetOrders<
  AdditionalInput = any,
  ResRawData = any,
  ResError extends Error = Error
> = MakairaShopProviderInteractor<
  MakairaGetOrdersInput<AdditionalInput>,
  MakairaGetOrdersResData,
  ResRawData,
  ResError
>
//#endregion

//#region type definition: provider order
export type MakairaShopProviderOrder = {
  getOrders: MakairaGetOrders
}

Next you have to add the feature to the main interface that is located in the src/providers/main.ts in @makaira/storefront-types. We extend our generic types MakairaShopProviderOptions and MakairaShopProvider to accept the new feature. This leads to a BREAKING CHANGE, since AdditionalOptions should stay at the last position of the generic types.

export type MakairaShopProviderOptions<
  CartProviderType = MakairaShopProviderCart,
  // ... other features/providers defined
  // ...
  OrderProviderType = MakairaShopProviderOrder, // <- add this here
  AdditionalOptions = unknown
> = {
  providers?: {
    cart?: Constructor<CartProviderType>
    // ... other features/providers defined
    // ...
    order?: Constructor<OrderProviderType> // <- add this here
  }
} & AdditionalOptions

export interface MakairaShopProvider<
  CartProviderType extends MakairaShopProviderCart = MakairaShopProviderCart,
  // ... other features/providers defined
  // ...
  OrderProviderType extends MakairaShopProviderOrder = MakairaShopProviderOrder // <- add this here
> extends EventTarget {
  cart: CartProviderType

  // ... other features/providers defined
  // ...

  order: OrderProviderType // <- add this here
}

In the following we get for each shop adapter a typescript error that we now fix by adding the new order feature specific implementation to each shop adapter.

Therefore create in each shop adapter the file src/providers/order.ts. For simplicity we don't show how to add the enforced feature methods here. You can read about it in the section how to add new feature for all shop adapters.

import { StorefrontShopAdapterLocal } from './main'

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocalOrder
  implements MakairaShopProviderOrder
{
  constructor(private mainAdapter: StorefrontShopAdapterLocal) {}

  // ... shop adapter specific feature method implementations
}

At the last step we have to adjust our main.ts file in each shop adapter that is located at src/providers/main.ts. Their we have to adjust the generics and have to initialize the new feature.

export class StorefrontShopAdapterLocal<
    CartProviderType extends MakairaShopProviderCart = StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCart,
    // ... other features/providers defined
    // ...
    OrderProviderType extends MakairaShopProviderOrder = StorefrontShopAdapterLocalOrder // <- add this here
  >
  extends EventTarget
  implements
    MakairaShopProvider<
      CartProviderType,
      // ... other features/providers defined
      // ...
      OrderProviderType // <- add this here
    >
{
  cart: CartProviderType

  // ... other features/providers defined
  // ...

  order: OrderProviderType // <- add this here

  constructor(
    options: MakairaShopProviderOptions<
      CartProviderType,
      // ... other features/providers defined
      // ...
      OrderProviderType // <- add this here
    > = {}
  ) {
    super()

    // Here are all other providers to destructed.
    // Because of our goal to make everything customizable as much as possible we assign here a default value instead of directly initializing our new created feature. So in the future feature overwriting by passing a custom provider is possible.
    const {
      cart: CartProvider = StorefrontShopAdapterLocalCart,
      // ... other features/providers defined
      // ...
      order: OrderProvider = StorefrontShopAdapterLocalOrder, // <- add this here
    } = options.providers ?? {}

    // @ts-expect-error https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56505560/how-to-fix-ts2322-could-be-instantiated-with-a-different-subtype-of-constraint
    this.cart = new CartProvider(this)

    // ... other features/providers defined
    // ...

    // @ts-expect-error https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56505560/how-to-fix-ts2322-could-be-instantiated-with-a-different-subtype-of-constraint
    this.order = new OrderProvider(this) // <- add this here
  }
}

Finally we added our new feature order.

How to create a new shop adapter

Creating a new shop adapter is beside its specific implementation really simple. To do so we created a script that can be run from the root of this repository to create a new shop adapter. Just run the following command:

npm run create-new-shop-provider <NEW-SHOP-ADAPTER-NAME>

or

yarn create-new-shop-provider <NEW-SHOP-ADAPTER-NAME>

This will create a new folder in the packages folder with the naming convention storefront-shop-adapter-<NEW-SHOP-ADAPTER-NAME>.

The script automatically set up for you:

  • creating an npm package that will be published under: @makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-<NEW-SHOP-ADAPTER-NAME>
  • versioning the package
  • validating the typescript configuration on each commit
  • validating the code quality using eslint on each commit
  • creating empty main adapter and feature classes
  • build command

After you run the create command you have to implement the feature methods. If you finished it you can commit it and create a PR.

How to add additional arguments to the constructor of an shop adapter

Sometimes a shop adapter needs some arguments to work. For example most adapters require a api url. We know that and this is why we added an option for this.

To add additional arguments to have to adjust the type definition of the main shop adapter class. The last argument of the generic type MakairaShopProviderOptions allows you to add a type definition for your additional arguments.

class StorefrontShopAdapterDemo {
  constructor(
    options: MakairaShopProviderOptions<
      CartProviderType,
      CheckoutProviderType,
      UserProviderType,
      WishlistProviderType,
      ReviewProviderType,
      { apiUrl: string } // <-- add this here
    >
  ) {
    super()

    // custom code
    // ...
  }
}

Enforced standards

To archive a high standard and consistency for the monorepo we added some checks to ensure them. Currently on each commit theses standards are enforced. If their is any problem the commit will fail and reports you what has to be adjusted. The checks are:

  • each commit message must follow the conventional commits
  • on each commit the type safety will be validated. If their is a problem the commit will fail.
  • on each commit the code quality will be checked using eslint. If their is any problem the commit will fail.
  • on each commit the formatting is adjusted to the standards using prettier.

Testing

This monorepo allows you to run testing manually or automated.

Manual testing

To run testing manually you can link your local npm package with your storefront or any other package that depends on one of the packages. To test it you have to do two steps:

  1. Install the package using a relative path. Just edit the package.json and find the package you are editing and testing and replace the version with the path to the file. For example it looks like this:
{
  "dependencies": {
    "@makaira/storefront-shop-adapter-oxid": "file:../../storefront-shop-adapter/packages/storefront-shop-adapter-oxid"
  }
}
  1. On each change you made to the shop adapter you have to rebuild it. Just go into the shop adapter package folder and run npm run build. Feel free to add an implementation to run it in a watch mode to automatically rebuild on file changes.

Automatic testing

The hole monorepo supports automated testing using jest tests. Feel free to add new jest test. They will be automatically detected. To run the test execute the command npm run test on the root of the monorepo or in each package.

Good to know

  1. When you are locally developing each package accesses the current implementation of code instead of the builded code. So if you for example add a new feature method for all shop adapters each of them will directly create a typescript error because they access the newly added code. It means that the version that stands in the dependencies does not matter.

  2. The release of the packages is done automatically in the ci. To ensure that each package has the correct referenced version between them at first the @makaira/storefront-types will be published and then each package that requires @makaira/storefront-types will get the newly released version set.

  3. The versions for each package will automatically calculated using semantic-release in the ci. So you don't have to worry about setting the correct versions.

  4. The monorepo orchestration is done by turborepo

Known issues

  1. In some cases after a commit files seems to be changed. This comes by prettier we think. Prettier sets another file permissions that will be recorded by git. Just discard these changes.
