Seeing App in Store

[ghost]

Will you actually see the app installed in the store? I followed instructions and just got an empty page when I went to http://mysite.com/install.php?shop=devshop.myshopify.com

I went back to the shopify dev shop and didnt see the app installed.

[myjanky]

You need to replace mysite.com with your app domain and shop= your shopify domain. Forgive me if you are just using these to protect the location of your shop and app.

[ghost]

yes, i used my app sight and dev shop address. does there need to be https:// in front of the devshop url? @myjanky

[myjanky]

Yes HTTPS is the only way to get it to work. Do you have aa valid SSL cert ( not self signed)?

And yes you will see the install in your partners dashboard if all went well.

BTW. The callback URL should point to the index.php And the redirect URL should be exactly the same as the one in the app settings. If you get the 400 error check the redirect_url query parameter in the url bar in the browser.

[ghost]

I don't get any errors. It just shows the blank install.php page and I check the Dev store and it is not installed.

[myjanky]

You may need to delete the index.html file if you cloned. Most web servers are set to any format index file as the root document

[ghost]

I tried that. Where do I access where the callback URL goes? The only place on app setting is in the redirect url. Sorry so many questions. Just banging my head as to why this isnt working

[ghost]

Found it! Thanks for your help @myjanky

[ghost]

so now I get this Oauth error invalid_request: The redirect_uri is missing or not whitelisted

[myjanky]

Make sure the query parameter for the redirect URL is the same as the one in the app settings.

[ghost]

where do I find that? in oauth? Sorry for being ignorant in this.

[myjanky]

No apologies needed. I was once where you were at. You will soon have confidence with this API and be able to help others.

In your browser when you go to install.php?shop=yourshop.com it will take you to a page and if it errors copy that url. inspect it for the redirect_url parameter. what does it say?

try this

in install.php comment out this line echo "";

by adding // in front //echo "";

and echo the $install_url var echo $install_url;

[ghost]

I really appreciate the help. I get this http://mati-and-the-bug.myshopify.com/admin/api/auth?api_key=83b26275bdae223d467e31d3027e9b64

not worried about hiding it right now haha.

I did notice that the redirect_uri wasnt there so I add $redirect = '&redirect_uri="http://tylernichol.com/oauth"'; and then tagged that at the end. I now get

http://tylernichol.com/oauth.php?hmac=89b94af93e07392beb708f4e8f1b75a7f2afe0b0860db38c98fd3c9ebe01cba3&shop=mati-and-the-bug.myshopify.com&signature=6ee9c9b7134e0e7fdb37e6ec2aa37492&timestamp=1443727913 as the url.

but it is a blank page. I added it on the oauth.php for the permission url @myjanky

[myjanky]

Can you list the settings you have for the APP in your partners dashboard? this may help. It looks like the endpoint is not HTTPS on either of those URLS. make sure your app settings match

[myjanky]

Also I went to tylernichol.com and your cert is not setup correctly.

you get this issue because the shopify Oauth mechanism sees an invalid certificate request.

Once your cert is setup correctly you should be able to get past your issues. Just go to https://tylernichol.com and see for yourself what the oauth sees.

Of all the posts I have read on this most of the redirect urls were not https here is a screenshot of my settings

[myjanky]

You usually set it up to force ssl. I know I banged my head on that one too but it does require it. On Oct 1, 2015 2:46 PM, "tynichol" notifications@github.com wrote:

my site is on go daddy and i cant really buy it right now. so im stuck then?

[myjanky]

yea. you're stuck on that server. go get a free Heroku account and push your repo to there. they have ssl already.

Also enable the embedded app setting if you want it integrated into your backend shop admin.

[ghost]

I have heroku for some rails stuff. I guess Ill switch it. Thanks!

[ghost]

Ughhh so it seems I went back a step! I created the heroku php app. It's running fine. I pushed to the master and now when I go to the install page with the shop parameters, it does nothing. I have a feeling it has to do with composer. Here is my log file for the push.

Any clues @myjanky

[myjanky]

I do not think so. I have a few instances of Heroku using PHP and none of them are using Composer. The only dependency needed for them is PHP.

Is it just a white screen?

You should probably use the Rails shopify api as it has better tutorials and a larger community to support it. Also, check out OhShopify here on github. It is lite and more simple. Not trying to push anyone away from phpish but a firm understanding of oauth is needed to be able to diagnose any issues. I always place simple echo or print_r to dump output to the screen where I think the issue is occurring.

https://docs.shopify.com/api/authentication/oauth

It looks like you were getting to step 3 before. Are you storing the token in the session or a DB? If it is a session only then the redirect could be causing your app server to GC the session.

[myjanky]

If you are working on a tshirt designer, I have one. ;)

[ghost]

haha thats funny you mention that, I am not. I would like to have one cause our sister company has one and kills it with it. I am new to rails so I was reluctant to start that way, but I guess there is no better way to learn right? Thanks!

[myjanky]

I just stumbled across getonfleek from your image of your desktop.

My partner is interested in the adult onesies. He is gonna contact y'all at some point.

[ghost]

sweet!

@myjanky : I tried change http to https on Callback URL at Shopify partner manage app but it redirected to: https://bestecommerce-2.myshopify.com/admin/oauth/authorize?client_id=&redirect_uri= and show error: Oauth error invalid_request: The redirect_uri is missing or not whitelisted I'm using PHP API. Could you please help me on this ? I tried many ways...

[myjanky]

Yea I can help.

Inspect your URL. The query parameters are missing for client_id and redirect_url.

I am not sure what you need the client_id for (maybe the store).

Let me know how I can assist.
