Product Summary is an app for summarizing product information (such as name, price, and image) in other store blocks, such as the Shelf and the Minicart.

Configurating the product summary

  1. Import the vtex.product-summary app to your theme's dependencies in the manifest.json:

_10
"dependencies": {
_10
"vtex.product-summary": "2.x"
_10
}

Now, you can use all blocks exported by the product-summary app. See the full list below:

Block nameDescription
list-context.product-list
{"base64":"  ","img":{"width":69,"height":20,"type":"svg","mime":"image/svg+xml","wUnits":"px","hUnits":"px","url":"https://img.shields.io/badge/-Mandatory-red"}}
Renders the list of products in the Product Summary component. It fetches product information and provides it to the product-summary.shelf block. Then, this block provides its child blocks with the product information.
product-summary.shelf
{"base64":"  ","img":{"width":69,"height":20,"type":"svg","mime":"image/svg+xml","wUnits":"px","hUnits":"px","url":"https://img.shields.io/badge/-Mandatory-red"}}
Logical block that provides the needed structure for the Product Summary component through its child blocks (listed below).
product-summary-attachment-listRenders a list for product attachments.
product-summary-brandRenders the product brand.
product-summary-buy-buttonRenders the Buy button. This block must only be configured if your store uses the Minicart v1. If your store uses the Minicart v2, please configure the Add to Cart button instead.
product-summary-descriptionRenders the product description.
product-summary-imageRenders the product image.
product-summary-nameRenders the product name.
product-summary-sku-nameRenders the selected SKU name.
product-summary-price
{"base64":"  ","img":{"width":73,"height":20,"type":"svg","mime":"image/svg+xml","wUnits":"px","hUnits":"px","url":"https://img.shields.io/badge/-Deprecated-red"}}
Renders the product price. This block has been deprecated in favor of the Product Price app. Although support for this block is still available, we strongly recommend using the Product Price app.
product-summary-sku-selectorRenders the SKU Selector block.
product-specification-badgesRenders badges based on product specifications.
  1. Add the list-context.product-list block to a store template of your choice, and declare the product-summary.shelf in its block list. For example:

_10
{
_10
"list-context.product-list": {
_10
"blocks": ["product-summary.shelf"]
_10
},

Although the block name 'product-summary.shelf' alludes to the Shelf component, it is not necessary to use this block in order to create a shelf component. The Product Summary Shelf displays a summary of the product information in other components, such as the Minicart and the Search Results pages.

  1. Add the blocks from the list above as children of the product-summary.shelf, considering the product information you want to display in the product list. Take the following example in which the product name, description, image, price, SKU selector, and Buy button are all displayed in the Product Summary:

_16
{
_16
"list-context.product-list": {
_16
"blocks": ["product-summary.shelf"]
_16
},
_16
_16
"product-summary.shelf": {
_16
"children": [
_16
"product-summary-name",
_16
"product-summary-description",
_16
"product-summary-image",
_16
"product-summary-price",
_16
"product-summary-sku-selector",
_16
"product-summary-buy-button"
_16
]
_16
}
_16
}
