Customer Managed Groups

This plugin allows customers to manage their own groups, called Customer Managed Groups. Customer Managed Groups can have Group Admins and Group members.

Group admins and members are stored as Vendure's built-in customers, and the groups are the built-in Customer Group entities.
Customers can only be in one group, and they are either group participant or group admin. (Customers can still be in multiple)
Customers can create groups and add other non-admin customers to their group. Adding others to your group automatically makes you administrator of the group.
Group Admins can fetch placed orders for everyone in the group.
Group Admins can update profile details of members of their group.

Getting started

Add the plugin to your config:

import { CustomerManagedGroupsPlugin } from '@pinelab/vendure-plugin-customer-managed-group';plugins: [CustomerManagedGroupsPlugin];

You can create your own group via the Shop API, if you are logged in as a customer, by inviting another customer by email:

Graphql

  mutation {    addCustomerToMyCustomerManagedGroup('invitee@gmail.com') {        id        createdAt        updatedAt        name        administrators {            id            title            firstName            lastName            emailAddress        }        participants {            id            title            firstName            lastName            emailAddress        }    }  }

You can also remove participants again, by passing in the customer id that should be removed:

Graphql

  mutation {    removeCustomerToMyCustomerManagedGroup('2') {        id        createdAt        updatedAt        name        administrators {            id            title            firstName            lastName            emailAddress        }        participants {            id            title            firstName            lastName            emailAddress        }    }  }

Admins are allowed to fetch orders of all customers in a group. You can do this with the following query:

Graphql

query {  ordersForMyCustomerManagedGroup {    items {      id      code      customer {        emailAddress      }    }    totalItems  }}

These are all the GraphQL queries and mutations exposed by this plugin:

Graphql

extend type Mutation {  """  Creates a group with the current logged in user as administrator of the group  """  addCustomerToMyCustomerManagedGroup(    input: AddCustomerToMyCustomerManagedGroupInput  ): CustomerManagedGroup!  """  Create an empty group with the current user as Administrator  """  createCustomerManagedGroup: CustomerManagedGroup!  removeCustomerFromMyCustomerManagedGroup(    customerId: ID!  ): CustomerManagedGroup!}extend type Query {  """  Fetch placed orders for each member of the group  """  ordersForMyCustomerManagedGroup: OrderList!  """  Fetch the current logged in group member  """  activeCustomerManagedGroupMember: CustomerManagedGroupMember  myCustomerManagedGroup: CustomerManagedGroup}
