This plugin for Mailchimp Open Commerce generates Google Shopping XML feeds.
First, install the package in your project's reaction (API) directory:
npm install --save @outgrowio/open-commerce-google-shopping-feedThen, register the plugin in your project's reaction/plugins.json:
{
...,
"dummyData": "@outgrowio/open-commerce-google-shopping-feed/index.js"
}With the plugin registered, restart your API container to finalize the installation.
Once the plugin is registered, you get access to the following GraphQL mutations and queries. Call these from the GraphQL Playground at http://localhost:3000/graphql.
mutation generateGoogleShoppingFeeds($input: GenerateGoogleShoppingFeedsInput) {
generateGoogleShoppingFeeds(input: $input) {
wasJobScheduled
}
}Call with the following variables:
{
"input": {
"shopId": "cmVhY3Rpb24vc2hvcDpQU3p4M2Myd1luYXZER0FiYw=="
}
}query googleShoppingFeed($handle: String!, $shopUrl: String!) {
googleShoppingFeed(handle: $handle, shopUrl: $shopUrl) {
xml
}
}Call with the following variables:
{
"handle": "google-shopping-feed.xml",
"shopUrl": "https://yourshop.com"
}Note: the shop URL needs to be one that's listed in the desired shop's domains array (in the Shops collection).
Don't forget to use an Authorization HTTP header to authenticate your API calls when using the generateGoogleShoppingFeeds mutation. Example:
{
"Authorization": "skwL_8jUOkmom7wW_se6_XgfSBtBrUBSR9UL-CUq74A.fwTZ8_G2QTMPf83O6jAOtYxyEU1TYV6spm8abPENutg"
}You can get the value for the Authorization header in the reaction-admin UI (http://localhost:4080). By using your browser's network analyzer in the devtools, look for any recent POST call to /graphql and copy the value for Authorization in the request headers.
