Shopper Location

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.

:informationsource: The Google Geolocation API key in your _Inventory & Shipping settings is required for the geolocation feature.
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:

    "vtex.store-components": "3.x",
    "vtex.modal-layout": "0.x",
    "vtex.shopper-location": "1.x"

In one of the JSON files in your theme's store folder, define the shopper-location block and its children, adjusting the props as needed:

"shopper-location": {
    "children": ["modal-trigger#address"],
    "props": {
      "autofill": ["city", "country", "neighborhood", "number", "postalCode", "state", "street"]
    }
  },
  "modal-trigger#address": {
    "children": ["user-address", "modal-layout#address"]
  },
  "user-address": {
    "props": {
      "variation": "bar",
      "showStreet": false,
      "showCityAndState": true,
      "showPostalCode": true,
      "showPrefix": false,
      "showIfEmpty": true
    }
  },
  "modal-layout#address": {
    "children": ["modal-header#address", "modal-content#address"]
  },
  "modal-header#address": {
    "children": ["flex-layout.col#address-header"]
  },
  "flex-layout.col#address-header": {
    "children": ["rich-text#address-header"],
    "props": {
      "paddingLeft": 5
    }
  },
  "rich-text#address-header": {
    "props": {
      "text": "### Change Location"
    }
  },
  "modal-content#address": {
    "children": ["change-location"]
  },
  "change-location": {
        "props":{
      "postalCode": "first",
            "autocomplete": true,
      "notRequired": ["street", "number", "city", "state"],
      "hideFields": ["complement", "neighborhood", "receiverName", "reference"]
    }
    },

Also in one of the JSON files, place the shopper-location block in your layout. For example, to place the block in the header:

"flex-layout.row#header-desktop": {
    "props": {
      "blockClass": "main-header",
      "horizontalAlign": "center",
      "verticalAlign": "center",
      "preventHorizontalStretch": true,
      "preventVerticalStretch": true,
      "fullWidth": true
    },
    "children": [
      "flex-layout.col#logo-desktop",
      "flex-layout.col#category-menu",
      "flex-layout.col#spacer",
      "shopper-location",
      "search-bar",
      "locale-switcher",
      "login",
      "minicart.v2"
    ]
  },

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.
