How to get the most out of events with the Sharetribe CLI
When something happens on your marketplace, Sharetribe tracks it as an event. Events are useful for real-time integrations, but they can also be used to investigate the history of a single resource, such as a user or a listing, with the Sharetribe CLI. In this article, we will learn how to use the options in the CLI, as well as a tool called jq, to find the details we want to investigate.
Custom section components on Sharetribe’s CMS, Pages
Sharetribe marketplaces offer a simple CMS tool that operators can use to create content in their marketplaces without coding. This article discusses two ways to enhance the default display of CMS page components in Sharetribe Web Template.
Checking out a marketplace shopping cart
From a customer’s point of view, checking out on a Sharetribe marketplace is fairly simple. When checking out a cart, we need to add a few more actions in between the steps of the default flow under the hood. In this blog series, we are diving into the ins and outs of building a multi-vendor shopping cart with single-vendor checkout using the Sharetribe Developer Platform.
Showing purchased cart listings
The default behavior of Sharetribe marketplace transactions is to only involve a single listing. Therefore both the checkout page and the order page show only the main listing’s information, even if you are checking out a cart full of items. We want to modify this behavior so that cart listing information is displayed instead of the transaction’s default listing. In this blog series, we are diving into the ins and outs of building a multi-vendor shopping cart with single-vendor checkout using the Sharetribe Developer Platform.
Designing a shopping cart transaction flow
In the default purchase transaction process in a Sharetribe marketplace, the transaction handles payment and stock for one item. In a cart transaction flow, we still want to handle the payment in a single transaction with a single set of line items, but we want to handle stock for each listing separately. In this blog series, we are diving into the ins and outs of building a multi-vendor shopping cart with single-vendor checkout using the Sharetribe Developer Platform.
Calculating shopping cart price
In a default Sharetribe marketplace, a transaction price is calculated based on a single listing. With a shopping cart, we want to calculate the price of the transaction based on all the listings in the cart. In this blog series, we are diving into the ins and outs of building a multi-vendor shopping cart with single-vendor checkout using the Sharetribe Developer Platform.
