Shopify & Polymer #12

Open reggi opened 9 years ago

Polymer embraces bower and the file system.
Shopify only allows you to have one massive folder of assets.
Polymer vulcanize concatenates webcomponents into one file.
Here's an example of one component being vulcanized
The vulcanized output contains a link to ../../bower_components/polymer/polymer.js
I'd need a way of exporting css, js, and html individually and moving them into assets with the build process.
Here's my proposal for a better build process

Hi @reggi,

Where you able to integrate Polymer and Shopify in any way? I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the integration between Liquid templates and Polymer (If necessary at all). I'm currently planning to use the Buy SDK for Javascript and implementing a custom theme.

Any feedback is really appreciated! :+1:

@deearcodes It's definitely possible using the buy sdk. Integrating liquid with polymer is a bit trickier because you can't get access to the javascript objects. Which means you have to pass in everything as JSON possibly.

<my-product shopifyData="{{ product | json }}"></my-product>

It gets really icky.

Getting root from Shopify is, from what they've told me, is a non-starter. So, for the JSON Framework for Polymer, we're thinking of just hosting such files on our servers, for such clients. We'll see.
