With this extension you can use your CMS checkout (e.g. Magento) instead of default Vue Storefront checkout. This plugin requires cart and user sync on your backend (see integrations )

See live demo - add something to your cart and proceed to checkout.

How it works?

When user tries to enter your Vue Storefront checkout:

  1. The extension synchronizes cart and user data with your backend CMS
  2. User is redirected to your CMS checkout (extension overrides /checkout route).

Installation

  1. Install the extension on your Vue Storefront instance
yarn install vsf-external-checkout --save
  1. Add CMS address to your config/local.json file.
"externalCheckout": {
  "cmsUrl" : "https://yourcmsaddress.com"
}
  1. Enable cart synchronization for your Vue Storefront instance in config/local.json
cart": {
  "synchronize": true,
  ...
}
  1. Register the extension in src/extensions/index.js file
export default [
  // other extensions
  require('vsf-external-checkout/index.js'),
]

How to integrate with other CMS

If you want to integrate this extension with your backend CMS make sure that entering {your_CMS_url}/vue/cart/sync/token/{user-token}/cart/{cart_token} will do the following:

  1. Synchronzie cart and user data between Vue Storefront and your CMS
  2. Redirect user to external checkout
