GatsbyJS + DatoCMS + Snipcart Starter

Demo

README IS IN PROGRESS

Who is this guide aimed for?

• If you're comfortable with creating HTML/CSS/JS static webpages and is currently learning ReactJS. I hope you appreciate what GatsbyJS is capable of after reading.

Features

• Product inventory is managed using the DatoCMS dashboard
• Fully responsive minimalistic design
• And last but not least, dark mode 🌛!

Setting up

I will walk you through how to make this site yours. You'll have your own online store in no time!

1. Create a new project gatsby new gatsby-simplefolio https://github.com/masayaShinoda/gatsbyjs-datocms-snipcart
2. Changing site information

• Information such as the site title and description is stored in gatsby-config.js

  module.exports = {
    siteMetadata: {
      title: `Test E-commerce Project`,
      description: `E-commerce site built with GatsbyJS and DatoCMS.`,
      author: `Masaya`,
  },    
  

• gatsby-plugin-manifest plugin allows users to add your site to their home screen on most mobile browsers. Modify the code according to your need.

  {
    resolve: `gatsby-plugin-manifest`,
    options: {
      name: `Masaya Store`,
      short_name: `Masaya Store`,
      start_url: `/`,
      background_color: `#3a2a8a`,
      theme_color: `#3a2a8a`,
      display: `Masaya Store`,
      icon: `src/images/logo-03.png`,
    },
  },

3. Accessing DatoCMS data:

• Follow the official DatoCMS documentation for how to integrate with GatsbyJS
• Once you've changed the API Token in gatsby-config.js,

  {
    resolve: `gatsby-source-datocms`,
    options: {
      apiToken: `YOUR API TOKEN`,
      preview: false,
      disableLiveReload: false,
    },
  },

  —you would want to query and render your own content (in this case, products) instead of mine.

4. Here's how the product listing works in this website: * Products are queried using GraphQL's useStaticQuery found on line 10 of .\src\components\products.js:

   const productData = useStaticQuery(graphql`
     query productData {
       allDatoCmsProduct {
         nodes {
           productType
           productModel
           brand
           colorS
           sizes
           price
           displayimg {
             url
           }
           images {
             url
             alt
           }
           id
         }
       }
     }
   `)

5. While in development mode, navigate to localhost:8000/_graphql to see your personal DatoCMS nodes. In my case, my DatoCMS Model is Product and the fields can be queried by:

   query productData {
     allDatoCmsProduct {
       nodes {
         // YOUR FIELDS
       }
     }
   }
