This app attempts to determine the user's location if not already known, first by requesting permission to use their browser's geolocation feature, then by looking up their location based on their IP address as a fallback. The location is stored in the shippingData
section of the orderForm
and can then be used by other apps, such as Location Availability.
A block is also provided which renders a form allowing the user to manually change their location.
Shopper Location also supports redirecting a user to a URL based off their location determined by the app. See the Client Redirect section.
This app also supports white label sellers selection, allowing shoppers to select one or more sellers available in their location. Shoppers will then be able to search and view products from those select sellers. See the Region Seller Selection section.
:information_source: The Google Geolocation API key is required, and is configured in the account's Shipping settings (/admin/logistics/#/config)
:warning: To use the IP lookup fallback, you must have an API key for https://ip-geolocation.whoisxmlapi.com.
Configuration
-
Install
vtex.shopper-location
in the desired account. -
In your account's admin dashboard, go to
Apps > My Apps
and click the Settings button for Shopper Location. -
Enter your API key for https://ip-geolocation.whoisxmlapi.com in the provided field and click Save. If you plan to use the
Client Redirect
feature, it is also configured here. -
Modify your
store-theme
as follows:
- Add the following as dependencies in your theme's manifest if not already present:
_10 "vtex.store-components": "3.x",_10 "vtex.modal-layout": "0.x"
- Add
Shopper location
to yourpeer dependencies
:
_10 "vtex.shopper-location": "1.x"
- In one of the JSON files in your theme's
store
folder, define theshopper-location
block and its children, adjusting the props as needed:
_45"shopper-location": {_45 "children": ["modal-trigger#address"]_45 },_45 "modal-trigger#address": {_45 "children": ["user-address", "modal-layout#address"]_45 },_45 "user-address": {_45 "props": {_45 "variation": "bar",_45 "showStreet": false,_45 "showCityAndState": true,_45 "showPostalCode": true,_45 "showPrefix": false,_45 "showIfEmpty": true_45 }_45 },_45 "modal-layout#address": {_45 "children": ["modal-header#address", "modal-content#address"]_45 },_45 "modal-header#address": {_45 "children": ["flex-layout.col#address-header"]_45 },_45 "flex-layout.col#address-header": {_45 "children": ["rich-text#address-header"],_45 "props": {_45 "paddingLeft": 5_45 }_45 },_45 "rich-text#address-header": {_45 "props": {_45 "text": "### Change Location"_45 }_45 },_45 "modal-content#address": {_45 "children": ["change-location"]_45 },_45 "change-location": {_45 "props":{_45 "postalCode": "first",_45 "autocomplete": true,_45 "notRequired": ["street", "number", "city", "state"],_45 "hideFields": ["complement", "neighborhood", "receiverName", "reference"],_45 "autofill": ["city", "country", "neighborhood", "number", "postalCode", "state", "street"]_45 }_45 },
- Also in one of the JSON files, place the
shopper-location
block in your layout. For example, to place the block in the header:
_20"flex-layout.row#header-desktop": {_20 "props": {_20 "blockClass": "main-header",_20 "horizontalAlign": "center",_20 "verticalAlign": "center",_20 "preventHorizontalStretch": true,_20 "preventVerticalStretch": true,_20 "fullWidth": true_20 },_20 "children": [_20 "flex-layout.col#logo-desktop",_20 "flex-layout.col#category-menu",_20 "flex-layout.col#spacer",_20 "shopper-location",_20 "search-bar",_20 "locale-switcher",_20 "login",_20 "minicart.v2"_20 ]_20 },
Client Redirect
You have the option to redirect the user to a country specific URL, based on the user's location. In the App Settings, enter the alpha-3 country code and URL for each supported country.
On their first visit, if a user is not on their country's website, a modal will display an option to be redirected to their country specific website. For users located in a country that does not have an entry in the App Settings, no option is displayed.
Additionally, there is an Automatic Redirect
option, that will redirect the user automatically, without displaying the modal.
Region Sellers Selection
Allow users to select one or more sellers serving their location from a list of options and display only products carried by those sellers in the search results.
:information_source: For this feature to work properly, the item cannot have inventory in seller "1". If there's stock in seller "1", then the item will always appear in the search results, regardless of inventory in whichever sellers are selected.
Add the region-sellers
block as a child of the shopper-location
block to get started:
_10"shopper-location": {_10 "children": ["modal-trigger#address", "region-sellers"]_10 },
