package.json) and add the needed dependency for making HTTP requests. Since Lovable does not have a terminal, you add the dependency manually by updating your file. For example, add the following segment in the "dependencies" section of your package.json file:
{
"dependencies": {
"axios": "^0.27.2"
// ... other dependencies
}
}
bigcommerceConfig.ts within your project’s source folder (for example, in the src directory). This file will store your BigCommerce API credentials and endpoint information. Replace the placeholder values with your actual BigCommerce store details.
// src/bigcommerceConfig.ts
export const bigCommerceConfig = {
storeHash: "yourstorehash", // Replace with your BigCommerce store hash
clientId: "yourclientid", // Replace with your BigCommerce client ID
accessToken: "youraccesstoken", // Replace with your BigCommerce access token
baseUrl: "https://api.bigcommerce.com/stores/yourstorehash" // Use your actual store hash here
};
bigcommerceAPI.ts in the same folder as your configuration file (or in a dedicated integrations folder if you prefer). In this file, use Axios to build functions that interact with BigCommerce endpoints. The example below includes functions to fetch products and create an order:
// src/bigcommerceAPI.ts
import axios from "axios";
import { bigCommerceConfig } from "./bigcommerceConfig";
const api = axios.create({
baseURL: bigCommerceConfig.baseUrl,
headers: {
"X-Auth-Token": bigCommerceConfig.accessToken,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Accept": "application/json"
}
});
export async function fetchProducts() {
try {
const response = await api.get("/v3/catalog/products");
return response.data; // Returns products data from BigCommerce
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error fetching products:", error);
throw error;
}
}
export async function createOrder(orderData: any) {
try {
const response = await api.post("/v2/orders", orderData);
return response.data; // Returns created order details
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error creating order:", error);
throw error;
}
}
main.ts or another appropriate file) and import the BigCommerce API functions. Use these functions where needed in your application logic. For instance, you might want to load BigCommerce products on a specific page. Insert the following snippet in that file:
// src/main.ts (or the file where you intend to integrate BigCommerce functionality)
import { fetchProducts, createOrder } from "./bigcommerceAPI";
// Example function to display products
async function displayBigCommerceProducts() {
try {
const products = await fetchProducts();
console.log("Products from BigCommerce:", products);
// Here you can update your UI components to show the fetched products
} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to fetch products:", error);
}
}
// Call the example function (you can trigger this based on your application flow)
displayBigCommerceProducts();
// Example function to create an order
async function handleOrderCreation() {
const orderData = {
// Build your orderData object as required by BigCommerce API
customer_id: 12345,
products: [
// Array of product objects
{ product_id: 111, quantity: 2 },
{ product_id: 222, quantity: 1 }
],
// Add more order details as needed
};
try {
const newOrder = await createOrder(orderData);
console.log("Order successfully created:", newOrder);
// Additional logic after order creation can go here
} catch (error) {
console.error("Failed to create order:", error);
}
}
