Seperate endpoints just for SSR mode.

[Jensderond]

What is the motivation for adding / enhancing this feature?

When using VSF with docker network_mode: host is not supported for Docker for Desktop(Mac). Thus the categories and products cannot be fetched using SSR.

What are the acceptance criteria

• Endpoints in default/local.json including something like "elasticsearch.host_ssr"

Can you complete this feature request by yourself?

• YES
• NO

Which Release Cycle state this refers to? Info for developer.

Pick one option.

• This is a normal feature request. This should be available on https://test.storefrontcloud.io and then after tests this can be added to next Vue Storefront version. In this case Developer should create branch from develop branch and create Pull Request 2. Feature / Improvement back to develop.
• (Pick this option only if you're sure) This is an important improvement request for current Release Candidate version on https://next.storefrontcloud.io and should be placed in next RC version. In this case Developer should create branch from release branch and create Pull Request 3. Stabilisation fix back to release.
• (Pick this option only if you're sure) This is a critical improvement request for current Stable version on https://demo.storefrontcloud.io and should be placed in next stable version. In this case Developer should create branch from hotfix or master branch and create Pull Request 4. Hotfix back to hotfix.

I was able to run VSF in docker without network_mode: host using:

environment:
    NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED: 0

All the endpoints should be just provided with _ssr option.

example:

    "api": {
      "url": "http://publicdomain.com:80",
      "url_ssr":  "http://privateaddress:8080",
    },
"cart": {
 "create_endpoint": "/api/cart/create?token={{token}}",
 "create_endpoint_ssr": "/api/cart/create?token={{token}}",
      "updateitem_endpoint": "/api/cart/update?token={{token}}&cartId={{cartId}}",
      "updateitem_endpoint_ssr": "/api/cart/update?token={{token}}&cartId={{cartId}}",
      "deleteitem_endpoint": "/api/cart/delete?token={{token}}&cartId={{cartId}}",
      "deleteitem_endpoint_ssr": "/api/cart/delete?token={{token}}&cartId={{cartId}}"
}

Please make sure the following areas are updated:

• vue-storefront-api project,
• core/scripts/installer.js
• quickSearchByQuery - basically the search adapters in the vue-storefront,
• sync/task.ts

Then double-check if all the endpoints specified in the config were supported:

redis.host
graphql.host
api.url
elasticsearch.host
storeViews.elasticsearch.host
cart.create_endpoint
cart.updateitem_endpoint
cart.deleteitem_endpoint
cart.pull_endpoint
cart.totals_endpoint
cart.paymentmethods_endpoint
cart.shippingmethods_endpoint
cart.shippinginfo_endpoint
cart.collecttotals_endpoint
cart.deletecoupon_endpoint
cart.applycoupon_endpoint
products.endpoint
orders.endpoint
reviews.create_endpoint
users.endpoint
users.history_endpoint
users.resetPassword_endpoint
users.changePassword_endpoint
users.login_endpoint
users.create_endpoint
users.me_endpoint
users.refresh_endpoint
stock.endpoint
mailer.endpoint.send
mailer.endpoint.token

@andrzejewsky we've just got another user inquiry regarding this issue Today (Slack) and I belive we should take care of it in the next feature release
