Advice on Subcategories about nicistore HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi!

Thanks for your feedback, interest on the project and looking forward to seeing your store powered by it!

The concept of Category/Collection is something up to the storefront, as you might have already noticed. On the API/Atlas (https://github.com/yoonic/atlas) side of things, there's only the concept of "Collections" which can be used to group Products (and also Contents, Customer, etc if you wish).

In order to achieve sub-categories, you just need to set a parentId to the sub-category (collection) --> https://github.com/yoonic/atlas/blob/master/src/resources/collections/models.js#L87-L89

I'm building 2 sites - one backend for corporate customers for the Boss and a simple Disaster Preparedness Kits ecommerce site ( I can show you the latter one once it is up!).

Nice! Did my answer help?

Yes, I believe it will work. I've been working on creating Variants first. Also, wiped my HD accidentally so I'm starting over a bit. I'll let you know on the subcategories!

Question on variants: I'm getting the options to appear on the CartItems. Where will I be storing the Product Variant Data, or is there nothing to hold the Data at the moment and i must create my own StoreHandler?

from nicistore.

The Products entity has the concept of "metadata" that is an object in which you can store whatever sorts of information you want. You can use that for variant logic.

@stevecawdery Share that backend with the opensource! Would love to integrate it
