Crate to write Shopify Functions in Rust.
Documentation

Shopify Functions Rust Crate

A crate to help developers build Shopify Functions.

Usage

  • The [typegen] macro allows you to generate structs based on your Function API (based on the provided GraphQL schema) and multiple input queries.
  • The shopify_function attribute macro marks the following function as the entry point for a Shopify Function. It manages the Functions input parsing and output serialization for you.
  • The run_function_with_input function is a utility for unit testing which allows you to quickly add new tests based on a given JSON input string.

See the example_with_targets for details on usage, or use the following guide to convert an existing Rust-based function.

Updating an existing function using a version of shopify_function below 1.0.0 to use version 1.0.0 and above

  1. In main.rs, add imports for shopify_function.

    use shopify_function::prelude::*;
    use shopify_function::Result;
    
  2. In main.rs, add type generation, right under your imports. Remove any references to the generate_types! macro. Replace ./input.graphql with the location of your input query file (e.g. src/run.graphql).

    #[typegen("./schema.graphql")]
    pub mod schema {
       #[query("./input.graphql")]
       pub mod input {}
    }
    

    If your Function has multiple targets each with their own input query, add a nested module for each. For example:

    #[typegen("./schema.graphql")]
    pub mod schema {
       #[query("src/target_a.graphql")]
       pub mod target_a {}
    
       #[query("src/target_b.graphql")]
       pub mod target_b {}
    }
    
  3. In main.rs, ensure that you have a main function that returns an error indicating to invoke a named export:

    fn main() {
       eprintln!("Invoke a named import");
       std::process::exit(1);
    }
    
  4. Throughout all of your source files, replace any references to #[shopify_function_target] with the shopify_function macro, and change its return type. Typically, this is located in a file with a name equal to the target, e.g. run.rs.

    #[shopify_function]
    fn run(input: schema::input::Input) -> Result<schema::FunctionRunResult> {
    
  5. Update the types and fields utilized in the function to the new, auto-generated structs. For example:

    Old New
    input::ResponseData schema::input::Input
    input::InputDiscountNodeMetafield schema::input::input::discount_node::Metafield
    input::InputDiscountNode schema::input::input::DiscountNode
    output::FunctionRunResult schema::FunctionRunResult
    output::DiscountApplicationStrategy::FIRST schema::DiscountApplicationStrategy::First

    If referencing generated types from a file other than main.rs where they are defined, you'll need to import the schema. For example in run.rs you would need to add:

    use crate::schema;
    

Viewing the generated types

To preview the types generated by the typegen macro, use the cargo doc command.

cargo doc --open

You can also use the cargo-expand crate to view the generated source, or use the rust-analyzer VSCode extension to get IntelliSense for Rust and the generated types.
