Getting Started

The Platform Plugin provides a single entry point for configuring all Vendure Platform plugins. Instead of manually importing, ordering, and wiring each plugin, you pass a single options object to VendurePlatform.init() and it handles the rest.

What it does:

  • Automatic plugin registration. Only the plugins you configure are activated.
  • Dependency resolution. Required plugins are auto-activated (e.g. approvalWorkflows pulls in orgHierarchy and workflowEngine).
  • Integration wiring. Cross-plugin integrations (conditions, resolvers, strategies) are automatically detected and merged based on which plugins are active.
  • Correct ordering. The strategy wrapping chain and init order are handled internally.
  • Order process configuration. When approvalWorkflows is active, the default order process is automatically configured with the required flags.
