Start using Sledge and Next.js

Prior using all Sledge's widgets, follow the steps below to start integrating Sledge into your Next.js storefront.

Quickstart

Install Sledge Core

First, you need to install the core of sledge package, run the following command:

pnpm i @sledge-app/core

Setup the `SledgeProvider`

Once you've installed the core, create a new directory for your components (if it doesn't already exist).

For example, you can create a directory named components and create a new directory in the component folder named sledge and finally create a file named sledge-provider-component.tsx.

- sledge-provider-component.tsx

components/sledge/sledge-provider-component.tsx

"use client";
 
import { SledgeProvider } from "@sledge-app/core";
import "@sledge-app/core/style.css";
import { ReactNode } from "react";
 
interface ISledgeProvider {
  children: React.ReactNode;
  userId: string;
  userEmail: string;
  userFullname: string;
  domain: string;
}
 
export default function SledgeProviderComponent({
  children,
  userId,
  userEmail,
  userFullname,
  domain,
}: ISledgeProvider) {
  return (
    <SledgeProvider
      config={{
        userId: userId,
        userEmail: userEmail,
        userFullname: userFullname,
        domain: domain
      }}
    >
      {children}
    </SledgeProvider>
  );
}

In app/layout.tsx, import your sledge-provider-component.tsx component and use it to render SledgeProviderComponent

app/layout.tsx

"use client";
 
import SledgeProviderComponent from "components/sledge/sledge-provider-component";
 
export default async function RootLayout() {
  return (
    <html>
      <body>
        <SledgeProviderComponent
          userId=""
          userEmail=""
          userFullname=""
          domain=""
        >
          {/* Main content */}
        </SledgeProviderComponent>
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

Let's look on list of all available parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
userId	string	Fill with your own user logined data, You can check out the example code
userEmail	string	Fill with your own user logined data, You can check out the example code

Implement Widget

Create a file named sledge-product-filter-widget.tsx in the components/sledge folder.

- sledge-product-filter-widget.tsx

components/sledge/sledge-product-filter-widget.tsx

"use client";
 
import { ProductFilterWidget } from "@sledge-app/react-instant-search";
 
const SledgeProductFilterWidget = (product) => (
  <ProductFilterWidget
    query={{
      keyword: "q",
    }}
    params={{
      collectionId: "",
      collectionName: "",
    }}
  />
);

`ProductFilterWidget` Parameters

Let's look on list of all available parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description

collectionId	string (required)	Fill with your own collection id, You can check out the example code
collectionName	string (required)	Fill with your own collection name, You can check out the example code

Create collections route

Create a new route for your collections page.

- - page.tsx

In collections/[handle]/page.tsx, import your sledge-product-filter-widget.tsx component and use it to render ProductFilterWidget

collections/[handle]/page.tsx

import SledgeProductFilterWidget from "components/sledge/sledge-product-filter-widget.tsx";
import { getCollection } from "lib/shopify";
 
export default async function Page({ params }: any) {
  const collection: any = await getCollection(params.handle);
 
  return (
    <>
      <SledgeProductFilterWidget collection={collection} />
    </>
  );
}
