StoreService
and ProductService
to ensure a seamless user experience.
What is the goal here ?
The core objective here is to guarantee that when a user logs into the admin ui, they can seamlessly access their own store based on theirstore_id
.
This level of personalization is crucial for providing a tailored experience within our marketplace. As you’ve noted, the approach involves extending the existing services to achieve this functionality. Let’s dive into the details.
Extend the Store Service
We’ll create a new file in theservices
folder, named store.ts
, where we’ll extend the StoreService
to override the retrieve
function.
src/services/store.ts
StoreService
, we override the retrieve
method to check if the logged-in user is defined and have a store_id
associated with their account. If so, we use that store_id
to retrieve that specific store information. Otherwise, we fall back to the default behavior of the StoreService
(which will just use the default store created by the Medusa core loaders)
I recommend that you adjust the store names you currently have in your database so that when you log in with a vendor account, you see the correct shop name. In reality, the default store name is Medusa Store, thus it might be easier for you to have alternative names so you don’t struggle with it.
