Return created/updated objects about shopify-api-php

[MagicLegend]

Yeah, and why is it stale bot? Because Shopify doesn't reply ;)

[MagicLegend]

No worries. You can find an implementation of this issue in my fork: MagicLegend@d43bc94

+1
I don't know why this has NOT been implemented yet.

[shota]

I have created PR for this. This is what should be (save return response, saveAndUpdate update object itself)
#185

[Zelfapp]

This is a pretty serious issues that the Base.php save() method returns void. E.g. the rest api order docs incorrectly state there will be a response. Getting the response with the new order's id is mission critical for our use case, but I don't see a way to access the updated object.

Any contributors able to post a workaround until this is resolved?

[MagicLegend]

@Zelfapp Yeah, as stated in the original message, I have fixed this (along with other improvements to the library) in my fork: MagicLegend@d43bc94

[Zelfapp]

@MagicLegend I saw your PR. This library has too many issues for a private app at this point and feels too hacky. It has great potential though.

For the sake of anyone else battling this alpha lib for a private app, likely you're better off simply using guzzle to make REST api endpoint requests. E.g. in just few lines of code you can dynamically pass in any endpoint and payload.

Again, this is a great lib, but I would not classify as ready for production.

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Request;

/// Guzzle client
$client = new Client();
$request = new Request(
    'GET',
    "https://$this->shop/admin/api/2022-07/$endpoint",
    [
        'X-Shopify-Access-Token' => $this->permanentAccessToken,
    ],
    $endpointParams['payload'] ?? null,
);
$response = $client->sendAsync($request)->wait();
$response = $response->getBody();

[MagicLegend]

I respectfully disagree, and we have my fork running in production right now. It works fine, it just has some quirks that Shopify is not allocating resources to to solve. I prefer using a library that's providing typing over doing it manually in Guzzle, but both will of course work fine.

[brrrm]

I fully agree on this issue. I would like to see PR #185 to be committed.

[brrrm]

On second thought. When you do for instance:

$product = new Product($session);
$product->title = "my awesome product"

echo $product->id // NULL as it's a fresh unsaved product

// now we save it and set the param $updateObject to true
$product->save($updateObject = true);

echo $product->id // 1234567876 !!!!
// our $product object has been replaced with the object from the response.

[MagicLegend]

@brrrm Well, you don't pass $updateObject if that's not what you intended to do, so the save() call will return the updated entity instead of overwriting the existing entity.

[brrrm]

the param $updateObject is not about updating an existing entity or creating a new entity. All it does is update the Object with the returned entity from Shopify's response. Or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

if ($updateObject) {
   $body = $response->getDecodedBody();
   self::createInstance($body[$this->getJsonBodyName()], $this->session, $this);
}

FYI for anyone still struggling with this, instead of calling just save(), use saveAndUpdate() and then the original item is populated.

$newFulfillmentServiceResponse = new ShopifyFulfillmentService($session); $newFulfillmentServiceResponse->saveAndUpdate(); $id = $newFulfillmentServiceResponse->id; //this is now populated by using saveAndUpdate over save

Hey folks, thanks for your patience here. We've removed the stalebot from this repo, and I'm going to add this issue to our tracking.

Once again, thank you for your patience!
