How do I get started?

Using the Deploy Button below, you'll deploy on Vercel the Next.js project as well as connect it to your Sitecore Commerce OrderCloud sandbox.

Deploy with Vercel

Working locally

  1. Pull the latest version from this github repository
  2. Copy the .env.local.example file in the root directory to .env.local (ignored by default during your next Git commit):
cp .env.local.example .env.local

Then set each variable on .env.local: NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_NAME Application Name used on Page title. NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_CLIENT_ID ClientID from portal.ordercloud.io
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_API_URL='https://sandboxapi.ordercloud.io' Sandbox URL from portal.ordercloud.io
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_MARKETPLACE_ID NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_MARKETPLACE_NAME NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_USELIVEANALYTICSDATA='false'

Your .env.local file should look like this:

NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_NAME='Sitecore Commerce Seller App'
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_CLIENT_ID='****0BAC-****-4711-B01F-1A**4F7*****'
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_API_URL='https://sandboxapi.ordercloud.io'
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_MARKETPLACE_ID='SitecoreCommerce'
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_MARKETPLACE_NAME='Sitecore Commerce'
NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_USELIVEANALYTICSDATA='false'
  1. Run Next.js in development mode
npm install
npm dev

Your app should be up and running on http://localhost:3000! If it doesn't work, post on GitHub issues.

Seeding a new marketplace

In some cases it may be useful to have your own marketplace. Maybe you need to create data for a specific workflow, or perhaps you want to insulate yourself from unwanted data changes right before a demo. To make this easy we've included a CLI command that will create a marketplace for you and pre-populate it with products from the play shop marketplace.

npm run seed -- -u=YOUR_PORTAL_USERNAME -p=YOUR_PORTAL_PASSWORD -n=YOUR_MARKETPLACE_NAME

Next, find the admin client ID and set it as NEXT_PUBLIC_OC_CLIENT_ID in your .env file.

Finally log in as initialadminuser with the password Testingsetup123!

Deploy on Vercel

To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to public GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket repository then import to Vercel.

Not implemented / on the Roadmap
