Shopify application generator

Description:

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 “dashboard” 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.

Installation:

script/plugin install git://github.com/Shopify/shopify_app

Usage:

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#)

Example:

script/generate shopify_app edffbb1bb793e2750686e6f4647a384a fed5bb18hde3e2750686e6f4647a781a

This will create a login controller and a dashboard controller with their own views.

After running the generator:

  1. Run your application with script/server
  2. And visit http://localhost:3000 and you are ready to log in with your Shopify account.
