# Online store PWA sample
[](https://travis-ci.org/GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop)
This sample demonstrates best practices for e-commerce websites.
It also demonstrates some useful features enabled by new technologies and APIs
on the web.
## Development
Create a fork of the original project
[GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop)
and clone to your development environment.
### Install dependencies
Change to the top level project directory run the following:
```sh
cd sample-pie-shop
npm ci
```
*Note:* This will install the dependencies as per the `package-lock.json`
whereas `npm install` will update them. If you need to update the dependencies,
submit the updated `package-lock.json` as a new PR.
### Run the development server
The project uses [Firebase Cloud
Firestore](https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/) for product data. You
will need to create a project and download the JSON configuration for the Admin
SDK. You can do this in the [Firebase
console](https://console.firebase.google.com/project/YOUR-PROJECT-NAME/settings/serviceaccounts/adminsdk)
using the **Generate new private key** button. Save this to
`src/data/firebase-admin-key.json`.
The `start:dev` target will build the site and serve it locally while watching
for any changes. Once the script completes the initial build, the site should be
available at [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/).
```sh
npm run start:dev
```
*Note:* You can override the default location for the config file by specifying
a path in the `FB_KEYS` environment variable.
```sh
FB_KEYS=/path/to/alternative-key.json npm run start:dev
```
Check
[`package.json`](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop/blob/master/package.json)
for the other build targets.
### Import data to the database
Sample data for products, product categories and homepage content is stored as
JSON in the [`/src/data`](/src/data) directory.
You can import (upload) this data to your remote Firestore database by running
the following Node scripts from the
[`/tools`](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop/tree/master/tools)
directory:
```sh
cd tools
node --experimental-modules import_home.mjs
node --experimental-modules import_products.mjs
```
This project uses ECMAScript Modules, which currently require the `--experimental-modules` flag.
Check your version of Node using `node -v` and update to the LTS or Current version if necessary. The import code above has been tested in versions 10.15.3 and 11.14.0.
### Create a search index from your own data
This demo uses the [Algolia](https://www.algolia.com) search engine. This is free for open source projects with up to 100k records and 200k operations monthly.
The search functionality provided by this sample will work as-is for the product data in [`/src/data/products.json`](/src/data/products.json). In other words, if you're happy to use the sample product data as it is, you don't need to do anything!
However, if you want to use different product data, you will need to create your own Algolia application, then build a search index from your data. The _index.js_ application in the [`/tools/algolia`](/tools/algolia) directory enables you to create an Algolia search index from a Firebase data source. It can also be used to monitor updates to your data, and update the Algolia search index in response.
Follow these steps to build a search index if you want to use your own data:
1. Follow the [Algolia tutorial](https://www.algolia.com/doc/tutorials/indexing/3rd-party-service/firebase-algolia/) to create a search application.
2. Follow the tutorial instructions to create a `.env` configuration file in the [`/tools/algolia`](tools/algolia) directory.
3. Run `node index.js` in the same directory to get data from Firebase and create the index for the Algolia app.
4. Update the `APP_ID` (Algolia app) and `API_KEY` (search key) values in [/src/services/algolia.js](src/services/algolia.js).
### Images
Images are served from
[Cloudinary](https://res.cloudinary.com/pieshop/f_auto,dpr_auto,q_auto:eco/w_500/GGOEYXXX0938.png)
and displayed responsively using the `srcset` and `sizes` attributes in
combination with
[`lazy-img`](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/sample-pie-shop/blob/master/src/client/js/lazy-img.js)
for lazy loading.
