Saleor App Bridge

Installation

npm i @saleor/app-bridge

Usage

First initialize the package by running createApp():

import { createApp } from "@saleor/app-bridge";

const app = createApp();

Access app state:

const { token, domain, ready, id } = app.getState();

Events

Events are messages that originate in Saleor Dashboard.

Available methods

subscribe(eventType, callback) - can be used to listen to particular event type. It returns an unsubscribe function, which unregisters the callback.

Example:

const unsubscribe = app.subscribe("handshake", (payload) => {
  setToken(payload.token); // do something with event payload
  const { token } = app.getState(); // you can also get app's current state here
});

// unsubscribe when callback is no longer needed
unsubscribe();

unsubscribeAll(eventType?) - unregisters all callbacks of provided type. If no type was provided, it will remove all event callbacks.

Example:

app.unsubscribeAll("handshake"); // unsubscribe from all handshake events

app.unsubscribeAll(); // unsubscribe from all events

Available event types

  await app.dispatch(actions.Redirect({ to: "/orders" }));
  console.log("Redirect complete!");
