This plugin adds access to Shopify’s powerful API to your rails application.
The generator creates a basic login controller for authenticating with your
Shop and a controller called “home” which displays basic information
about your products, orders and articles.
Note: It’s recommended to use this on a new Rails project, so that the
generator won’t overwrite/delete some of your files.
sudo gem install shopify_api
script/plugin install git://github.com/Shopify/shopify_app
Pass your API key and then your Secret, which the login controller
will need to authenticate with your shop.
If you don’t have an API key yet, register your application at: YourShopURL/admin/api#
(e.g. http://yourshopname.myshopify.com/admin/api#)
script/generate shopify_app edffbb1bb793e2750686e6f4647a384a fed5bb18hde3e2750686e6f4647a781a
This will create a login controller and a home controller with their own views.
- Run your application with
script/server - And visit http://localhost:3000 and you are ready to log in with your Shopify account.
