npm run e2ePilot uses parallel data loading for optimal performance. Every route loads Weaverse data alongside GraphQL queries using Promise.all():
import { data } from '@shopify/remix-oxygen';
import { type LoaderFunctionArgs } from '@shopify/remix-oxygen';
export async function loader({ context }: LoaderFunctionArgs) {
const { storefront, weaverse } = context;
// Parallel data loading for best performance
const [collections, weaverseData] = await Promise.all([
storefront.query(COLLECTIONS_QUERY),
weaverse.loadPage({ type: 'INDEX' }),
]);
return data({
collections,
weaverseData,
});
}weaverse is an WeaverseClient instance that has been injected into the app context by Weaverse. It provides a set of methods to interact with the Weaverse API.
// app/lib/context.ts
const hydrogenContext = createHydrogenContext({
env,
request,
cache,
waitUntil,
session,
i18n: getLocaleFromRequest(request),
cart: {
queryFragment: CART_QUERY_FRAGMENT,
},
});
return {
...hydrogenContext,
// declare additional Remix loader context
weaverse: new WeaverseClient({
...hydrogenContext,
request,
cache,
themeSchema,
components,
}),
};Weaverse pages is rendered using <WeaverseContent /> component.
import { WeaverseHydrogenRoot } from '@weaverse/hydrogen';
import { GenericError } from '~/components/generic-error';
import { components } from './components';
export function WeaverseContent() {
return (
<WeaverseHydrogenRoot
components={components}
errorComponent={GenericError}
/>
);
}And in your route:
export default function Homepage() {
return <WeaverseContent />;
}Dead simple, right?
Weaverse global theme settings is loaded in the root's loader with context.weaverse.loadThemeSettings function.
export async function loader({request, context}: RouteLoaderArgs) {
return defer({
// App data...
weaverseTheme: await context.weaverse.loadThemeSettings(),
});
}And then you can use it in your components with useThemeSettings hook.
import { useThemeSettings } from '@weaverse/hydrogen';
function Logo() {
let {logo} = useThemeSettings();
return (
<div className="flex items-center">
<img src={logo} alt="Logo" />
</div>
);
}The App component is wrapped with withWeaverse HoC in order to SSR the theme settings.
import { withWeaverse } from '@weaverse/hydrogen';
function App() {
return (
<html lang={locale.language}>
// App markup
</html>
);
}
export default withWeaverse(App);To create a section, you need to create a new file in app/sections directory and register it in app/weaverse/components.ts file.
Important: All Weaverse sections must use forwardRef and extend HydrogenComponentProps.
import type {
HydrogenComponentProps,
createSchema,
} from '@weaverse/hydrogen';
import { forwardRef } from 'react';
interface VideoProps extends HydrogenComponentProps {
heading: string;
description: string;
videoUrl: string;
}
const Video = forwardRef<HTMLElement, VideoProps>((props, ref) => {
const { heading, description, videoUrl, ...rest } = props;
return (
<section ref={ref} {...rest}>
<div className="mx-auto max-w-7xl px-4 py-8 lg:px-12 lg:py-16 sm:text-center">
<h2 className="mb-4 text-4xl font-extrabold tracking-tight text-gray-900">
{heading}
</h2>
<p className="font-light text-gray-500 sm:text-lg md:px-20 lg:px-38 xl:px-48">
{description}
</p>
<iframe
className="mx-auto mt-8 h-64 w-full max-w-2xl rounded-lg lg:mt-12 sm:h-96"
src={videoUrl}
title="YouTube video player"
allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"
allowFullScreen
/>
</div>
</section>
);
});
export default Video;Export a schema object from the file to define the component's schema with default data and settings to be used in the Weaverse Studio.
export const schema = createSchema({
type: 'video',
title: 'Video',
settings: [
{
group: 'Video',
inputs: [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'heading',
label: 'Heading',
defaultValue: 'Learn More About Our Products',
placeholder: 'Learn More About Our Products',
},
{
type: 'textarea',
name: 'description',
label: 'Description',
defaultValue: `Watch these short videos to see our products in action. Learn how to use them and what makes them special. See demos of our products being used in real-life situations. The videos provide extra details and showcase the full capabilities of what we offer. If you're interested in learning more before you buy, be sure to check out these informative product videos.`,
placeholder: 'Video description',
},
{
type: 'text',
name: 'videoUrl',
label: 'Video URL',
defaultValue: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/-akQyQN8rYM',
placeholder: 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/-akQyQN8rYM',
},
],
},
],
});What if your component needs to fetch data from Shopify API or any third-party API?
Weaverse provide a powerful loader function to fetch data from any API, and it's run on the server-side 🤯😎.
Just export a loader function from your component:
import type { ComponentLoaderArgs } from '@weaverse/hydrogen';
export const loader = async ({ weaverse, data }: ComponentLoaderArgs) => {
const result = await weaverse.storefront.query<SeoCollectionContentQuery>(
HOMEPAGE_SEO_QUERY,
{
variables: { handle: data.collection.handle || 'frontpage' },
},
);
return result.data;
};And then you can use the data in your component with Component.props.loaderData 🤗
Don't forget to register your new section in app/weaverse/components.ts:
import * as Video from "~/sections/video";
export const components: HydrogenComponent[] = [
// ... existing components
Video,
];Weaverse provides a convenient way to customize your theme inside the Weaverse Studio. You can add new sections, customize existing ones, and change the theme settings.
