Installation

Add

gem 'spree_frontend'

to your Gemfile, making sure that the spree_frontend gem is before spree_auth_devise.

Make sure both gem 'jsbundling-rails' and gem 'turbo-rails' are added as well.

Run:

bundle install
bin/rails javascript:install:esbuild
bin/rails turbo:install
bin/rails g spree:frontend:install
yarn build

Troubleshooting

Disabled 'Add to Cart' Button Issue

If you notice that the 'Add to Cart' button is disabled on product pages, try the following:

run yarn build again in your main repo

if that doesn't fix the issue, try running the following setup commands again:

bin/rails javascript:install:esbuild
bin/rails turbo:install
bin/rails g spree:frontend:install
yarn build

This issue may come up if you switch the source of your spree_frontend in your Gemfile, e.g. from github to a local path, etc.

Checkout without logging in results in 500 error

When you navigate to checkout without logging in first, you may get a a 500 error notifying you that "yourdomain.com redirected you too many times."

This error results from the routes defined in spree_frontend and spree_auth_devise not being built in the correct order. Make sure the spree_frontend gem is listed before spree_auth_devise in your main project's gemfile, then try again.

Running Tests

In order to generate the dummy app required for running tests, you’ll need to have the following installed on your machine:

node v16.13.1 (npm v8.1.2)
yarn ≥ v1.22.15
ruby v3.0.3

To run tests locally, first run bundle exec rake test_app, then bundle exec rspec.

Troubleshooting

If you are running on a Mac with an M1 processor, you may run into the following error when running tests:

Webdrivers::NetworkError:
Net::HTTPServerException: 404 "Not Found"

If so, update your gemfile locally to get version 5.0 or higher for the web drivers gem:

gem 'webdrivers', '~> 5.0'

Maintanence policy

We only accept bug fixes, Spree/Rails compatibility improvements & security patches.
