Shopify - customize createCart() and use on the pages w/o a Buy Button


Currently, I'm embedding Shopify Buy Buttons into my website, offering only a couple products.

Any of the product templates where my Buy Button embedded code is pulled, displays the styles as I have chosen. And displays the cart when a product has been added.

To keep the cart on every page, I have added a snippet to the base template.

ShopifyBuy.UI.onReady(client).then(function (ui) {
  ui.createCart({
    options: {
      "styles": {
        "button": {
          "background-color": "#1a1a1a",
          ":hover": {
            "background-color": "#2c2c2c"
          },
          ":focus": {
            "background-color": "#2c2c2c"
          }
        },
        "footer": {
          "background-color": "#ffffff"
        }
      }
    }
  });
});

I cannot understand the syntax to properly style the cart! Shopify documentation has not been helpful.


Solution

  • Solved by moving createCart() and createComponent() into 1 include, on base templates. And passing in options as a global variable to each, see below:

    (function () {
      var shopifyOptions = {
        "product": {
          ... normal product options go here ...
        },
        "cart": {
          "contents": {
            "button": true
          },
          "styles": {
            "button": {
              "background-color": "#1a1a1a",
              ":hover": {
                "background-color": "#2c2c2c"
              },
              ":focus": {
                "background-color": "#2c2c2c"
              }
            },
            "footer": {
              "background-color": "#ffffff"
            }
          }
        },
        "modalProduct": {
          "contents": {
            "img": false,
            "imgWithCarousel": true,
            "variantTitle": false,
            "buttonWithQuantity": true,
            "button": false,
            "quantity": false
          },
          "styles": {
            "product": {
              "@media (min-width: 601px)": {
                "max-width": "100%",
                "margin-left": "0px",
