Shopify App Template - Remix

This is a template for building a Shopify app using the Remix framework.

Rather than cloning this repo, you can use your preferred package manager and the Shopify CLI with these steps.

Visit the shopify.dev documentation for more details on the Remix app package.

Quick start

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you'll need the following:

  1. Node.js: Download and install it if you haven't already.
  2. Shopify Partner Account: Create an account if you don't have one.
  3. Test Store: Set up either a development store or a Shopify Plus sandbox store for testing your app.

Setup

If you used the CLI to create the template, you can skip this section.

Using yarn:

yarn install

Using npm:

npm install

Using pnpm:

pnpm install

Local Development

Using yarn:

yarn dev

Using npm:

npm run dev

Using pnpm:

pnpm run dev

Press P to open the URL to your app. Once you click install, you can start development.

Local development is powered by the Shopify CLI. It logs into your partners account, connects to an app, provides environment variables, updates remote config, creates a tunnel and provides commands to generate extensions.

Authenticating and querying data

To authenticate and query data you can use the shopify const that is exported from /app/shopify.server.js:

export async function loader({ request }) {
  const { admin } = await shopify.authenticate.admin(request);

  const response = await admin.graphql(`
    {
      products(first: 25) {
        nodes {
          title
          description
        }
      }
    }`);

  const {
    data: {
      products: { nodes },
    },
  } = await response.json();

  return json(nodes);
}

This template comes preconfigured with examples of:

  1. Setting up your Shopify app in /app/shopify.server.ts
  2. Querying data using Graphql. Please see: /app/routes/app._index.tsx.
  3. Responding to mandatory webhooks in /app/routes/webhooks.tsx

Please read the documentation for @shopify/shopify-app-remix to understand what other API's are available.

Deployment

Application Storage

This template uses Prisma to store session data, by default using an SQLite database. The database is defined as a Prisma schema in prisma/schema.prisma.

This use of SQLite works in production if your app runs as a single instance. The database that works best for you depends on the data your app needs and how it is queried. You can run your database of choice on a server yourself or host it with a SaaS company. Here’s a short list of databases providers that provide a free tier to get started:

Database Type Hosters
MySQL SQL Digital Ocean, Planet Scale, Amazon Aurora, Google Cloud SQL
PostgreSQL SQL Digital Ocean, Amazon Aurora, Google Cloud SQL
Redis Key-value Digital Ocean, Amazon MemoryDB
MongoDB NoSQL / Document Digital Ocean, MongoDB Atlas

To use one of these, you can use a different datasource provider in your schema.prisma file, or a different SessionStorage adapter package.

Build

Remix handles building the app for you, by running the command below with the package manager of your choice:

Using yarn:

yarn build

Using npm:

npm run build

Using pnpm:

pnpm run build

Hosting

When you're ready to set up your app in production, you can follow our deployment documentation to host your app on a cloud provider like Heroku or Fly.io.

When you reach the step for setting up environment variables, you also need to set the variable NODE_ENV=production.

Hosting on Vercel

When hosting your Shopify Remix app on Vercel, Vercel uses a fork of the Remix library.

To ensure all global variables are set correctly when you deploy your app to Vercel update your app to use the Vercel adapter instead of the node adapter.

// shopify.server.ts
- import "@shopify/shopify-app-remix/adapters/node";
+ import "@shopify/shopify-app-remix/adapters/vercel";

Gotchas / Troubleshooting

Database tables don't exist

If you get this error:

The table `main.Session` does not exist in the current database.

You need to create the database for Prisma. Run the setup script in package.json using your preferred package manager.

Navigating/redirecting breaks an embedded app

Embedded Shopify apps must maintain the user session, which can be tricky inside an iFrame. To avoid issues:

  1. Use Link from @remix-run/react or @shopify/polaris. Do not use <a>.
  2. Use the redirect helper returned from authenticate.admin. Do not use redirect from @remix-run/node
  3. Use useSubmit or <Form/> from @remix-run/react. Do not use a lowercase <form/>.

This only applies if you app is embedded, which it will be by default.

Non Embedded

Shopify apps are best when they are embedded into the Shopify Admin. This template is configured that way. If you have a reason to not embed your please make 2 changes:

  1. Change the isEmbeddedApp prop to false for the AppProvider in /app/routes/app.jsx
  2. Remove any use of App Bridge APIs (window.shopify) from your code
  3. Update the config for shopifyApp in app/shopify.server.js. Pass isEmbeddedApp: false

OAuth goes into a loop when I change my app's scopes

If you change your app's scopes and authentication goes into a loop and fails with a message from Shopify that it tried too many times, you might have forgotten to update your scopes with Shopify. To do that, you can run the deploy CLI command.

Using yarn:

yarn deploy

Using npm:

npm run deploy

Using pnpm:

pnpm run deploy

My webhook subscriptions aren't being updated

This template registers webhooks after OAuth completes, using the afterAuth hook when calling shopifyApp. The package calls that hook in 2 scenarios:

  • After installing the app
  • When an access token expires

During normal development, the app won't need to re-authenticate most of the time, so the subscriptions aren't updated.

To force your app to update the subscriptions, you can uninstall and reinstall it in your development store. That will force the OAuth process and call the afterAuth hook.

Admin created webhook failing HMAC validation

Webhooks subscriptions created in the Shopify admin will fail HMAC validation. This is because the webhook payload is not signed with your app's secret key.

Create webhook subscriptions using the shopifyApp object instead.

Test your webhooks with the Shopify CLI or by triggering events manually in the Shopify admin(e.g. Updating the product title to trigger a PRODUCTS_UPDATE).

Incorrect GraphQL Hints

By default the graphql.vscode-graphql extension for VS Code will assume that GraphQL queries or mutations are for the Shopify Admin API. This is a sensible default, but it may not be true if:

  1. You use another Shopify API such as the storefront API.
  2. You use a third party GraphQL API.

in this situation, please update the .graphqlrc.ts config.

First parameter has member 'readable' that is not a ReadableStream.

See hosting on Vercel.

Admin object undefined on webhook events triggered by the CLI

When you trigger a webhook event using the Shopify CLI, the admin object will be undefined. This is because the CLI triggers an event with a valid, but non-existent, shop. The admin object is only available when the webhook is triggered by a shop that has installed the app.

Webhooks triggered by the CLI are intended for initial experimentation testing of your webhook configuration. For more information on how to test your webhooks, see the Shopify CLI documentation.

Benefits

Shopify apps are built on a variety of Shopify tools to create a great merchant experience.

The Remix app template comes with the following out-of-the-box functionality:

  • OAuth: Installing the app and granting permissions
  • GraphQL Admin API: Querying or mutating Shopify admin data
  • REST Admin API: Resource classes to interact with the API
  • Webhooks: Callbacks sent by Shopify when certain events occur
  • AppBridge: This template uses the next generation of the Shopify App Bridge library which works in unison with previous versions.
  • Polaris: Design system that enables apps to create Shopify-like experiences

Tech Stack

This template uses Remix. The following Shopify tools are also included to ease app development:

  • Shopify App Remix provides authentication and methods for interacting with Shopify APIs.
  • Shopify App Bridge allows your app to seamlessly integrate your app within Shopify's Admin.
  • Polaris React is a powerful design system and component library that helps developers build high quality, consistent experiences for Shopify merchants.
  • Webhooks: Callbacks sent by Shopify when certain events occur
  • Polaris: Design system that enables apps to create Shopify-like experiences
