Google Sheet Loader | Vendure Docs

This plugin allows you to load data from a Google Sheet and handle the data in Vendure. For example, to load products and prices into Vendure. You can define a single action per channel. This means each channel can have it's own sheet, and it's own way of handling the data from that sheet.

Getting started

You need to have a Google API key to use this plugin. You can get one here.

Add this to your plugin in vendure-config.ts:

import { GoogleSheetLoaderPlugin } from '@pinelab/vendure-plugin-google-sheet-loader';plugins: [  GoogleSheetLoaderPlugin.init({    strategies: [new MyDataLoadingStrategy()],    googleApiKey: 'test-api-key',  }),  ...]

Add this plugin to your Admin UI and compile.

plugins: [  AdminUiPlugin.init({    port: 3002,    route: 'admin',    app: compileUiExtensions({      outputPath: path.join(__dirname, '__admin-ui'),      extensions: [GoogleSheetLoaderPlugin.ui],    }),  }),];

Before you can use this plugin, you need to implement your own data loading strategy. This strategy determines what will be done with the data from the sheet.

import { RequestContext, Injector } from '@vendure/core';import {  GoogleSheetDataStrategy,  SheetContent,} from '@pinelab/vendure-plugin-google-sheet-loader';export class MyDataLoadingStrategy implements GoogleSheetDataStrategy {  code = 'MyDataLoadingStrategy';  getSheetMetadata() {    return {      sheets: ['My tab'],      spreadSheetId: '1gqZpM-Ksxc-xxKJAKNALAFNLLkksdalakml',    };  }  validateSheetData(    ctx: RequestContext,    sheets: SheetContent[]  ): boolean | string {    // Single sheet example    const sheet = sheets[0];    const headerRow = sheet.data[0];    if (headerRow[0] !== 'My Header Column') {      return 'Expected "My Header Column" for column 1';    }    return true;  }  async handleSheetData(    ctx: RequestContext,    injector: Injector,    sheets: SheetContent[]  ): Promise<string> {    // Do whatever you want with the data here    // This part is executed in the worker    return `Successfully processed ${sheets[0].data.length} rows`;  }}

How it works

When the data loading is triggered from the product overview page in the admin UI, the plugin will:

Get the sheet metadata from the strategy
Fetch the content of the sheets
Validate the data, and give feedback to the admin user
If valid, a job will be created to handle the data
