In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to develop a type-safe ecommerce site with Astro. Astro’s innovative islands architecture empowers developers to create content-first websites using type-safe Markdown and MDX APIs. It also integrates smoothly with frontend frameworks like React, Vue, and more.
We’ll focus on constructing a high-performance web app that leverages Astro, React, and TypeScript. Additionally, we’ll integrate our app with a custom server for a comprehensive understanding.
Before delving into the ecommerce site implementation, let’s delve into the significance of strong and static typing in frontend projects to understand why we’re using TypeScript in this project.
Strong typing typically implies that once a variable is defined, its value type doesn’t automatically convert to another type when interacting with a variable of a different type. Python serves as an excellent example of strong typing.
For instance, consider having the variables age = 25
and name = "Bonarhyme"
. Due to strong typing, attempting to run operations like sum = age + name
would result in a TypeError
. This error indicates that such operations are invalid because the types of the variables do not match.
Strong typing has many benefits. For example, it:
However, keep in mind that with strong typing, more time is spent on code compilation. Strongly typed languages also rely on compilation in order to detect errors.
Static typing, on the other hand, will throw an error for the code above at compile time and not just when it’s run. In fact, it will not allow the code to be run at all because of the error in the code. Examples of languages with static typing include TypeScript and Java. Statically typed languages:
However, they also generally allow for more boilerplate code and have a tougher learning curve. Furthermore, static typing tends to be verbose and essentially makes developers write code duplicates.
Not all statically typed languages have strong typing — some might be more dynamic than others, allowing some sort of flexibility in type conversions. Generally, with dynamic typing, the type of a variable in a programing language is assigned at runtime by an interpreter.
Dynamically typed languages like Ruby and JavaScript are able to infer types and perform some sort of type conversion between variables. Although this provides some level of flexibility, it can produce less optimized code since runtime errors are possible and type errors are only detected later during code execution.
Combining strong and static typing helps solve the problems of dynamic typing and enhances code performance by preventing errors like inadvertent variable type reassignments. Statically typed languages also offer a structured way of defining types, which serves as valuable documentation for future code maintainers.
Since utilizing a language that is both statically and strongly typed is notably beneficial in frontend projects, we’ll be using TypeScript in this Astro ecommerce project. This will help us optimize our code and ensure that variable types can’t be automatically changed but should be explicitly implemented.
Astro provides a convenient, easy-to-use template for ecommerce projects called Astro Ecommerce. However, it’s pretty straightforward to set up a completely custom implementation, which is what we’re going to demonstrate in this tutorial.
The ecommerce site we will build will enable users to create an account and log in, as well as fetch and update their profile. Authenticated users will be able to view the product listing, select a product, add and remove items from their carts, and place and manage orders.
Any orders that users place will only be completed once they make a payment using their selected payment platform. The site will also feature screens for admins to manage users, products, and orders.
As a bonus, our project will also feature a review and rating system for products.
To keep the focus of this tutorial on our frontend ecommerce site, we won’t dive into our backend implementation in detail. Generally, the backend was built with TypeScript using Express.js as the backend framework and MongoDB as the database.
The source code for the server can be found here on Github. You can also examine the available endpoints that we will consume for our Astro ecommerce site:

First, create a folder named something like astro-ecommerce
and then follow the official Astro setup guidelines. You can also just open your terminal, run npm create astro@latest
, and follow the prompts, ensuring your setup matches what’s shown below:
Next, we will create the necessary folders and files inside the src
directory. There are a lot to create, but ultimately, our src
folder structure should now look like this:
// src folder structure src ┣ components ┃ ┣ AddReview.tsx ┃ ┣ AdminManageOrders.tsx ┃ ┣ AdminManageProducts.tsx ┃ ┣ AdminManageUsers.tsx ┃ ┣ Button.tsx ┃ ┣ CartItem.tsx ┃ ┣ CartList.tsx ┃ ┣ CheckoutCart.tsx ┃ ┣ CreateProduct.tsx ┃ ┣ Dialog.tsx ┃ ┣ Heading.tsx ┃ ┣ Loader.tsx ┃ ┣ LoginForm.tsx ┃ ┣ Message.tsx ┃ ┣ OrderDetails.tsx ┃ ┣ Payment.tsx ┃ ┣ PaymentProcessor.tsx ┃ ┣ PlaceOrder.tsx ┃ ┣ Product.tsx ┃ ┣ ProductDetails.tsx ┃ ┣ ProductList.tsx ┃ ┣ Profile.tsx ┃ ┣ Rating.tsx ┃ ┣ RegisterForm.tsx ┃ ┣ Select.tsx ┃ ┣ Shipping.tsx ┃ ┗ Showcase.tsx ┣ layouts ┃ ┣ Footer.astro ┃ ┣ Header.tsx ┃ ┗ Layout.astro ┣ pages ┃ ┣ order ┃ ┃ ┗ [id].astro ┃ ┣ product ┃ ┃ ┗ [id].astro ┃ ┣ account.astro ┃ ┣ cart.astro ┃ ┣ checkout.astro ┃ ┣ index.astro ┃ ┣ login.astro ┃ ┣ manage-orders.astro ┃ ┣ manage-products.astro ┃ ┣ manage-users.astro ┃ ┗ register.astro ┣ state ┃ ┣ auth.ts ┃ ┣ cart.ts ┃ ┣ order.ts ┃ ┣ products.ts ┃ ┗ user.ts ┗ env.d.ts
Once you’ve created all the folders and files above, the next step is to add the React and Tailwind integrations as well as install the necessary dependencies. Run the following commands in your terminal to do so:
npx astro add react npx astro add tailwind
These commands will also update the astro.config.mjs
file like so:
// astro.config.mjs import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'; import tailwind from '@astrojs/tailwind'; import react from '@astrojs/react'; // https://astro.build/config export default defineConfig({ output: 'server', integrations: [tailwind(), react()], });
After that we will open the terminal and run the following command:
npm install axios react-icons react-paystack nanostores
This will install:
axios
: A package we’ll use to make API calls to the serverreact-icons
: A library that provides many free icons from popular icon librariesreact-paystack
: A payment platform for web appsnanostores
: The recommended global state management library for AstroNote that we must set the ouput
to server
inside the astro.config.mjs
file since we want Astro to render our site on the server side.
Let’s add all the code for state management using nanostores
. We’ll also set up asynchronous functions that we can use to make API calls within the app. Starting with these steps will make it easier to follow along with the rest of the tutorial.
First, open the state/auth.ts
file, import the necessary dependencies, and define the interfaces and initial states that we’ll use for the API calls:
// state/auth.ts import { atom, map } from 'nanostores'; import axios from 'axios'; export interface AuthState { id: string; _id?: string; name: string; email: string; isAdmin: boolean; token: string; } export const authInitialState = { id: '', name: '', email: '', isAdmin: false, token: '', }; // Next code below here
Next, initialize the various global states using atom
or map
from nanostores
. atom
should be used to initialize primitive values and arrays while map
should be used strictly for objects
and undefined
values. Hence, we will initialize loading
, error
, and value
states for auth
APIs like so:
// state/auth.ts export const loadingRegister = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorRegister = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const loadingLogin = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorLogin = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const authState = map<AuthState>(authInitialState); export const SERVER_URL = 'http://localhost:5211';
We added the SERVER_URL
inside the state.auth.ts
file so we can reuse it wherever we want to make an API call. TypeScript’s typing behavior ensures that we don’t mix up variables.
Generally, to get the value from the nanostores
variable, we call a get
method attached to it. To modify the variable, we use the set
method. For example, in loadingRegister
, we can:
loadingRegister.set(true);
loadingRegister.get()
Next, let’s create the registerRequest
and loginRequest
asynchronous functions:
// state/auth.ts export const registerRequest = async (name: string, email: string, password: string) => { errorRegister.set(undefined); loadingRegister.set(true); try { const response = await axios.post<AuthState>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/register`, { name, email, password }); authState.set({ ...authState.get(), ...response.data }); localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(response.data)); window.location.href = '/'; } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorRegister.set(message); } finally { loadingRegister.set(false); } }; export const loginRequest = async (email: string, password: string) => { errorLogin.set(undefined); loadingLogin.set(true); try { const response = await axios.post<AuthState>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/login`, { email, password }); authState.set({ ...authState.get(), ...response.data }); localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify(response.data)); window.location.href = '/'; } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorLogin.set(message); } finally { loadingLogin.set(false); } };
In the code above, registerRequest
accepts name
, email
, and password
variables with their appropriate types. Meanwhile, loginRequest
accepts just email
and password
.
Notice how we systematically update the values of the appropriate states:
error
state to undefined
loading
state to true
try...catch
block
try
block, we send a request to the appropriate API endpoint using axios
, specifying the expected response type for type safety. We then store successful authentication results to localStorage
before redirecting the user to the homepagecatch
block, we access the appropriate error message and we set the message to the error
state if an error occursfinally
block resets the loading state to false
The pattern above ensures systematic state management for authentication processes in our project. We’ll reuse this approach for secure endpoint access by adding config objects as needed for API requests.
We’re done with the state management for authentication at this point, so let’s move on to the state for managing users and profiles. Open the state/user.ts
file and add the following:
// state/user.ts import axios from 'axios'; import { atom, map } from 'nanostores'; import { SERVER_URL } from './auth'; import type { AuthState } from './auth'; // Omit is TypeScript utility code. Use it to remove one or more types from a given type export type IUser = Omit<AuthState, 'token'>; export type IUsers = Array<IUser>; export const loadingGetProfile = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorGetProfile = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const getProfileState = map<IUser>(); export const loadingUpdateProfile = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorUpdateProfile = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const updateProfileState = map<IUser>(); // Admin state to fetch all users export const loadingUsers = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorUsers = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const usersState = atom<IUsers>([]); // Admin state to make a user an admin export const loadingUpdateUser = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorUpdateUser = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const profileGetRequest = async () => { errorGetProfile.set(undefined); loadingGetProfile.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<IUser>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/profile`, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); getProfileState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorGetProfile.set(message); } finally { loadingGetProfile.set(false); } }; export const profileUpdateRequest = async (name: string, email: string) => { errorUpdateProfile.set(undefined); loadingUpdateProfile.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.put<IUser>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/profile`, { email, name }, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); getProfileState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorUpdateProfile.set(message); } finally { loadingUpdateProfile.set(false); } }; export const usersRequest = async () => { errorUsers.set(undefined); loadingUsers.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<IUsers>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/`, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); usersState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorUsers.set(message); } finally { loadingUsers.set(false); } }; export const makeAdminRequest = async (id: string) => { errorUpdateUser.set(undefined); loadingUpdateUser.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.put<IUser>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/users/${id}`, { isAdmin: true }, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorUpdateUser.set(message); } finally { loadingUpdateUser.set(false); } };
In the code above:
profileGetRequest
allows users to fetch their profilesprofileUpdateRequest
allows users to update their profilesusersRequest
allows admins to fetch a list of usersmakeAdminRequest
allows permitted users to assign the admin role to other usersNotice how the code pattern is the same as before except for the config, which contains the headers and other metadata for our specific request. In this case, Authorization
uses the token
we get when we create or log into an account. Essentially, we extract the token
from the user
object stored in localStorage
.
Next, let’s open the state/product.ts
and add the global states and functions to fetch APIs. We’ll handle listing, creating, deleting, getting, and reviewing products. Pay careful attention to the types and interfaces to create a proper statically typed site, which helps us write code with integrity and allows our code editor to help us with autocompletion:
// state/product.ts import axios from 'axios'; import { atom, map } from 'nanostores'; import { SERVER_URL } from './auth'; // interface for review. This matches the model in the server interface IReview { name: string; rating: number; comment: string; user: string; } // inteface for a product. This matches the model in the server export type IProduct = { _id: string; user: any; name: string; image: string; brand: string; category: string; description: string; reviews: Array<IReview>; rating: number; numReviews: number; price: number; countInStock: number; }; // This is the response we are expecting when we fetch a product list from our custom server export type ProductListRequest = { products?: Array<IProduct> | undefined; page?: number; pages?: number; }; export const loadingProductList = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorProductList = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const productListState = map<ProductListRequest>({ page: 0, pages: 0, products: undefined, }); export const loadingCreateProduct = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorCreateProduct = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const loadingDeleteProduct = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorDeleteProduct = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const loadingGetProduct = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorGetProduct = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const productGetState = map<IProduct>(); export const loadingReviewProduct = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorReviewProduct = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const productReviewState = map<IProduct>(); export const listProductRequest = async (keyword = '', pageNumber = '') => { errorProductList.set(undefined); loadingProductList.set(true); try { const response = await axios.get<ProductListRequest>( `${SERVER_URL}/api/products?keyword=${keyword}&pageNumber=${pageNumber}` ); productListState.set({ ...productListState.get(), ...response.data }); console.log({ data: response.data }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorProductList.set(message); } finally { loadingProductList.set(false); } }; export const createProductRequest = async ( name: string, price: string, brand: string, category: string, countInStock: string, description: string, image: string ) => { errorCreateProduct.set(undefined); loadingCreateProduct.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.post<IProduct>( `${SERVER_URL}/api/products`, { name, price, brand, category, countInStock, description, image }, config ); console.log({ productCreated: response }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorCreateProduct.set(message); } finally { loadingCreateProduct.set(false); } }; export const deleteProductRequest = async (id: string) => { errorDeleteProduct.set(undefined); loadingDeleteProduct.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.delete<ProductListRequest>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/products/${id}`, config); console.log({ data: response.data }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorDeleteProduct.set(message); } finally { loadingDeleteProduct.set(false); } }; export const getProductRequest = async (id: string, ui: boolean = true): Promise<IProduct | undefined> => { { ui && errorGetProduct.set(undefined); } { ui && loadingGetProduct.set(true); } try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<IProduct>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/products/${id}`, config); { ui && productGetState.set(response?.data); } return response?.data; } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; { ui && errorGetProduct.set(message); } return undefined; } finally { loadingGetProduct.set(false); } }; export const reviewProductRequest = async ( id: string, rating: string, comment: string ): Promise<IProduct | undefined> => { errorReviewProduct.set(undefined); loadingReviewProduct.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.post<IProduct>( `${SERVER_URL}/api/products/${id}/reviews`, { rating: Number(rating), comment }, config ); productReviewState.set(response?.data); return response?.data; } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorReviewProduct.set(message); return undefined; } finally { loadingReviewProduct.set(false); } };
Next, we’ll create the state and functions for order
processes. We’ll handle placing an order, getting a single order, updating an order’s payment status, updating an order’s delivery status, allowing admins to fetch all the orders in the system, and allowing users to fetch orders they’ve placed:
// state/order.ts import { SERVER_URL } from './auth'; import { atom, map } from 'nanostores'; import axios from 'axios'; import type { ICartItem } from './cart'; export interface OrderItem { name: string; qty: number; image: string; price: number; product: any; } export interface IOrder { _id: string; user: any; orderItems: Array<OrderItem>; shippingAddress: { address: string; city: string; postalCode: string; country: string; }; paymentMethod: string; paymentResult: { message: string; reference: string; status: string; transactionId: string; user: string; }; itemsPrice: number; taxPrice: number; shippingPrice: number; totalPrice: number; isPaid: boolean; paidAt: Date | number; isDelivered: boolean; deliveredAt: Date | number; } export interface IPaymentResult { message: string; reference: string; status: string; transactionId: string; } export const loadingPlaceOrder = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorPlaceOrder = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const loadingGetOrder = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorGetOrder = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const orderGetState = map<IOrder>(); export const loadingPay = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorPay = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const payState = map(); export const loadingDelivery = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorDelivery = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const loadingOrderList = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorOrderList = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const orderListState = atom<Array<IOrder>>([]); export const loadingMyOrderList = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorMyOrderList = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const myOrderListState = atom<Array<IOrder>>([]); export const placeOrderRequest = async ( orderItems: ICartItem[], shippingAddress: IOrder['shippingAddress'], paymentMethod: IOrder['paymentMethod'], itemsPrice: IOrder['itemsPrice'], taxPrice: IOrder['taxPrice'], totalPrice: IOrder['totalPrice'], shippingPrice: IOrder['shippingPrice'] ) => { errorPlaceOrder.set(undefined); loadingPlaceOrder.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.post<IOrder>( `${SERVER_URL}/api/orders`, { orderItems, shippingAddress, paymentMethod, itemsPrice, taxPrice, totalPrice, shippingPrice, }, config ); localStorage.removeItem('cart'); window.location.href = `/order/${response?.data?._id}`; } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorPlaceOrder.set(message); } finally { loadingPlaceOrder.set(false); } }; export const getOrderDetailsRequest = async (id: string) => { errorGetOrder.set(undefined); loadingGetOrder.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<IOrder>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/orders/${id}`, config); orderGetState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorGetOrder.set(message); } finally { loadingGetOrder.set(false); } }; export const payRequest = async (id: string, paymentResult: IPaymentResult) => { errorPay.set(undefined); loadingPay.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.put(`${SERVER_URL}/api/orders/${id}/pay`, paymentResult, config); console.log({ response }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorPay.set(message); } finally { loadingPay.set(false); } }; export const deliveryRequest = async (id: string) => { errorDelivery.set(undefined); loadingDelivery.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.put(`${SERVER_URL}/api/orders/${id}/deliver`, {}, config); console.log({ response }); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorDelivery.set(message); } finally { loadingDelivery.set(false); } }; export const listOrdersRequest = async () => { errorOrderList.set(undefined); loadingOrderList.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<Array<IOrder>>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/orders`, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); orderListState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorOrderList.set(message); } finally { loadingOrderList.set(false); } }; export const listMyOrdersRequest = async () => { errorMyOrderList.set(undefined); loadingMyOrderList.set(true); try { const user = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; const config = { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${user?.token}`, }, }; const response = await axios.get<Array<IOrder>>(`${SERVER_URL}/api/orders/myorders`, config); console.log({ hhh: response }); myOrderListState.set(response.data); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorMyOrderList.set(message); } finally { loadingMyOrderList.set(false); } };
You may notice in this file that when importing a type or an interface, we specified it as a type. This is the pattern for importing types recommended by the Astro team.
Also in this file, we imported the necessary dependencies and variables, then defined the interface and types for our APIs. Next, we initialized our global states and created our functions with their respective, properly typed parameters.
You may also notice that after an order is placed successfully in the placeOrderRequest
function, we remove the cart from localStorage
. There are other states — such as cart
, shippingAddress
, and paymentMethod
— that we’ll store in our localStorage
, but we’ll address them later.
The last state to handle for now is the cart
state. Here, we’ll handle features like adding, modifying, and removing products in the cart. As usual, we’ll import the necessary dependencies and functions, then define our interfaces and initialize our global states:
// state/cart.ts import { atom } from 'nanostores'; import { getProductRequest } from './products'; export interface ICartItem { product: string; qty: number; name: string; image: string; price: number; countInStock: number; } export const loadingAddCart = atom<boolean>(false); export const errorAddCart = atom<string | undefined>(undefined); export const cart = atom<Array<ICartItem> | undefined>(undefined); // Other code below here
After that, we will add a function to add an item to a cart:
// state/cart.ts export const addToCart = async (id: string, qty: number) => { try { errorAddCart.set(undefined); loadingAddCart.set(true); // Get product first const productResponse = await getProductRequest(id, false); // Check if product is available and not less than requested quantity if ((productResponse?.countInStock || 0) < qty || !productResponse?.countInStock) { throw new Error('Few items remaining... Reduce quantity'); } // Define cart items from state const cartItems = cart?.get() || []; // Get existing cart iytem const existingCartItem = cartItems?.find((item) => item.product === productResponse?._id); // Selected Cart item has been previously selected if (existingCartItem) { // Update the existing item's quantity const updatedCartItem = { ...existingCartItem, qty }; // Update the list of cart items with the modified cart item const updatedCartItems = cartItems?.map((cartItem) => cartItem?.product === existingCartItem.product ? updatedCartItem : cartItem ); // save the changes to the state cart.set(updatedCartItems); } // Cart item is a new item if (!existingCartItem) { // Create a new cart item with data from server and also selected quantity const newCartItem: ICartItem = { product: productResponse?._id, image: productResponse?.image, name: productResponse?.name, price: productResponse?.price, qty, countInStock: productResponse?.countInStock, }; // Update the list of cart items with the newly added cart items const updatedCartItems = [...cartItems, newCartItem]; // Save the Update to the state cart.set(updatedCartItems); } localStorage.setItem('cart', JSON.stringify(cart?.get())); } catch (error: any) { const message = error.response && error.response.data.message ? error.response.data.message : error.message; errorAddCart.set(message); } finally { loadingAddCart.set(false); } };
In the addToCart
function, we:
error
and loading
statesgetProductRequest
function defined earliercart
state defined abovelocalStorage
Next, we will add the code to remove an item from the store and then update the cart in localStorage
using the code below:
// state/cart.ts export const removeFromCart = async (id: string) => { try { // Define cart items from state const cartItems = cart?.get() || []; const updatedCartItem = cartItems?.filter((cartItem) => cartItem?.product !== id); cart.set(updatedCartItem); localStorage.setItem('cart', JSON.stringify(cart?.get())); } catch (error) { console.log({ RemoveFromCartError: error }); } finally { } };
Let’s work on the layout
folder, which will house our header
, footer
, and layout
components. We’ll start with the Header.tsx
. file by bringing in the required dependencies and defining our component prop type:
// layout/Header.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect } from 'react'; import { FaCartPlus, FaSignOutAlt, FaUser, FaUsers } from 'react-icons/fa'; import { FaTableList } from 'react-icons/fa6'; import { authInitialState, authState } from '../state/auth'; import { cart } from '../state/cart'; type HeaderProps = {}; export const Header: React.FC<HeaderProps> = () => { // Other codes here // Stop here return <></<> }
Using nanostores
for state management is convenient because you can easily use it in a React component with the useStore
Hook. We’ll use this tool to access the values in the global states we set up before — authState
, cart
, and so on. In the Header.tsx
file, add the following code:
// layout/Header.tsx export const Header: React.FC<HeaderProps> = () => { const user = useStore(authState); const isLoggedIn = Boolean(user.token); const isAdminLoggedIn = Boolean(user.isAdmin); const cartItems = useStore(cart); const handleLogout = useCallback(() => { authState.set(authInitialState); if (window) { localStorage.removeItem('user'); localStorage.removeItem('shippingAddress'); localStorage.removeItem('paymentMethod'); window.location.href = '/login'; } }, []); useEffect(() => { // Set initial auth state data from storage const authStateStorage = localStorage.getItem('user') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user') || '') : null; if (authStateStorage) { authState.set(authStateStorage); } // Set initial cart items if it exists const cartStorage = localStorage.getItem('cart') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('cart') || '') : null; if (cartStorage) { cart.set(cartStorage); } }, []); return <></<> }
In the code above, we start by extracting the user details from authState
to determine whether a user is logged in and whether their role is admin
. We also use cartItems
from the cart
global state to extract the items in a cart.
The handleLogout
callback simply clears the auth state along with the user
, shippingAddress
, and paymentMethod
values that might exist in the localStorage
. In the useEffect
Hook, we get the user
and cart
from the localStorage
and update the respective states.
In the jsx
, we will simply return a nav
with an image and a bunch of links in a <li>
tag. You will also notice that when a user isn’t logged in, we display a login
link while hiding some other links, like account
. Meanwhile, when the logged-in user is an admin
, we show some other links, like products
. So, our jsx
should look like this:
// layout/Header.tsx return ( <nav className='p-3 bg-slate-100'> <div className='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto flex items-end justify-between'> <div> <a href='/'> <img src={'/astro.png'} width='150' height='50' alt='Astro ecommerce' style={{ objectFit: 'cover' }} className='w-[80px] md:w-[100px]' /> </a> </div> <ul className='flex gap-4'> <li> <a href='/cart' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <span className='relative'> <FaCartPlus size={20} />{' '} {cartItems?.length && ( <span className='absolute -right-1 -top-1 rounded-full bg-red-600 w-4 h-4 right text-white font-mono text-[10px] leading-tight text-center flex justify-center items-center'> {cartItems?.length} </span> )}{' '} </span> Cart </a> </li> {isLoggedIn && ( <li> <a href='/account' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <FaUser size={20} /> Account </a> </li> )} {isAdminLoggedIn && ( <> <li> <a href='/manage-products' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <FaTableList size={20} /> Products </a> </li> <li> <a href='/manage-orders' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <FaTableList size={20} /> Orders </a> </li> <li> <a href='/manage-users' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <FaUsers size={20} /> Users </a> </li> </> )} {isLoggedIn && ( <li> <button onClick={handleLogout} className='flex items-center gap-1 text-red-500'> <FaSignOutAlt size={20} /> Logout </button> </li> )} {!isLoggedIn && ( <li> <a href='/login' className='flex items-center gap-1'> <FaUser size={20} /> Login </a> </li> )} </ul> </div> </nav> );
Next, we will create the footer
component. Since it’s a pure .astro
file, we have to open the layout/Footer.astro
file and add the following code:
// layout/Footer.astro <footer class='p-3 bg-slate-400'> <div class='max-w-[1800px]'> <p class='text-center'>Astro ecommerce - Lorem, ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.</p> </div> </footer>
We can assemble two files in the layout/Layout.astro
file like so:
// layout/Layout.astro --- import { ViewTransitions } from 'astro:transitions'; import { Header } from './Header'; import Footer from './Footer.astro'; interface Props { title: string; description: string; } const { title, description } = Astro.props; --- <html lang='en'> <head> <meta charset='utf-8' /> <link rel='icon' type='image/svg+xml' href='/favicon.svg' /> <meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width' /> <meta name='generator' content={Astro.generator} /> <meta name='description' content={description} /> <title>{title}</title> <ViewTransitions /> </head> <body> <div> <Header client:load /> <div style={{ minHeight: 'calc(100vh - 130px)' }}> <slot /> </div> <Footer /> </div> </body> </html>
Any code written between the hyphens is assumed to be TypeScript, so we imported the ViewTransitions
and other components before defining our props
variable, which accepts a title and a description. Note that this is the Astro-recommended pattern for defining types and using the values from the props.
Since we’re going to use the Layout
component in our pages, it will contain the appropriate head
and meta
tags as well as the ViewTransitions
component, which ensures smooth navigation between pages. In the body
tag, we render our Header
file, slot
, and Footer
.
Essentially, you need the client:load
prop whenever you use a React component in an Astro file. Also, the slot
is used to display whatever content is going to be passed in the Layout
component.
The message, loader, and button components will be heavily used in different parts of the app, so let’s create these essential components now. Add the following code to the components/Message.tsx
file:
// components/Message.tsx import React from 'react'; type MessageProps = { variant: 'danger' | 'info' | 'success' | 'secondary'; children: React.ReactNode; }; export const Message: React.FC<MessageProps> = ({ variant, children }) => { if (variant === 'secondary') { return ( <div className='bg-gray-100 border border-gray-400 text-gray-700 px-4 py-3 rounded relative my-2' role='alert'> <span className='block sm:inline'>{children}</span> </div> ); } if (variant === 'danger') { return ( <div className='bg-red-100 border border-red-400 text-red-700 px-4 py-3 rounded relative my-2' role='alert'> <strong className='font-bold mr-3'>Error!</strong> <span className='block sm:inline'>{children}</span> </div> ); } if (variant === 'info') { return ( <div className='bg-blue-50 border border-blue-300 text-blue-600 px-4 py-3 rounded relative my-2' role='alert'> <span className='block sm:inline'>{children}</span> </div> ); } return ( <div className='bg-green-100 border border-green-400 text-green-700 px-4 py-3 rounded relative my-2' role='alert'> <strong className='font-bold mr-3'>Successful!</strong> <span className='block sm:inline'>{children}</span> </div> ); };
The component above accepts variant
and children
props. Based on the value of the variant
, it also displays a certain jsx
.
We’ll do something similar for the components/Loader.tsx
and components/Button.tsx
components. However, Loader.tsx
accepts just one prop while the Button.tsx
accepts multiple props, including onClick
, loading
, disabled
, and others.
Here’s the code for the Loader.tsx
component:
// components/Loader.tsx import React from 'react'; type LoaderProps = { variant?: 'small' | 'large'; }; export const Loader: React.FC<LoaderProps> = ({ variant }) => { if (variant === 'small') { return ( <div className='flex items-center justify-center'> <div className='animate-spin rounded-full h-6 w-6 border-t-4 border-blue-500 border-solid'></div> </div> ); } return ( <div className='flex items-center justify-center'> <div className='animate-spin rounded-full h-12 w-12 border-t-4 border-blue-500 border-solid'></div> </div> ); };
Here’s the code for the Button.tsx
component:
// components/Button.tsx import React from 'react'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; type ButtonProps = { children: React.ReactNode; loading?: boolean; size?: 'small' | 'large'; onClick?(): void; type?: 'submit' | 'button' | 'reset'; disabled?: boolean; }; export const Button: React.FC<ButtonProps> = ({ children, loading, size = 'large', onClick, type = 'submit', disabled, }) => { if (size === 'small') { return ( <button className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded-2xl px-5 py-2 text-lg md:text-xl font-medium w-full max-w-[250px] flex gap-3 justify-center mt-8 cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800' disabled={loading || disabled} onClick={onClick} type={type} > {children} {loading && <Loader variant='small' />} </button> ); } return ( <button className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded-2xl px-5 py-2 text-lg md:text-xl font-medium w-full max-w-[500px] mx-auto flex gap-3 justify-center mt-8 cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800' disabled={loading || disabled} onClick={onClick} type={type} > {children} {loading && <Loader variant='small' />} </button> ); };
The Button
component simply returns a different jsx
depending on the size
prop. The onClick
prop is passed in each button
attribute. Also, we use the loading
prop to show a loader alongside the text in the button and disable the button based on the value of the loading
and disabled
props.
Similar to the components defined above, the components/Heading.tsx
component is a simple component that accepts text
, variant
, and textAlign
props and renders different jsx
based on the variant
like so:
// components/Heading.tsx import React from 'react'; type HeadingProps = { text: string; variant?: 'h1' | 'h2' | 'h3'; textAlign?: 'center' | 'left' | 'right'; }; export const Heading: React.FC<HeadingProps> = ({ text, variant = 'h1', textAlign = 'left' }) => { return ( <> {variant === 'h1' && ( <h1 className='text-xl md:text-3xl font-bold py-6 mx-auto' style={{ textAlign }}> {text} </h1> )} {variant === 'h2' && ( <h2 className='text-lg md:text-2xl font-bold mx-auto' style={{ textAlign }}> {text} </h2> )} {variant === 'h3' && ( <h3 className='text-lg md:text-xl mx-auto' style={{ textAlign }}> {text} </h3> )} </> ); };
Next, we’ll use the components/Dialog.tsx
component to display a modal. It will accept children
, open
, and onClose
props. Generally, it will contain a close button that should call onClose
when clicked:
// components/Dialog.tsx import React from 'react'; import { FaTimes } from 'react-icons/fa'; type DialogProps = { children: React.ReactNode; open: boolean; onClose(): void; }; export const Dialog: React.FC<DialogProps> = ({ children, open, onClose }) => { return ( <> {open ? ( <div className='fixed w-full right-0 left-0 bottom-0 top-0 z-50' style={{ backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)' }}> <div className='flex justify-center items-center h-full'> <div className='min-h-[700px] bg-white w-full max-w-[500px] m-auto py-4'> <div className='flex justify-end mb-4 px-4'> <FaTimes className='text-red-500' size={20} onClick={onClose} /> </div> <div className='h-[650px] overflow-y-auto px-4'>{children}</div> </div> </div> </div> ) : null} </> ); };
We need to collect the user’s name, email, and password on the registration page. However, we can augment this page’s functionality by writing its core code with React. In the components/RegisterForm.tsx
file, add the following code:
// components/RegisterForm.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useState } from 'react'; import { errorRegister, loadingRegister, registerRequest } from '../state/auth'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; type RegisterFormProps = {}; export const RegisterForm: React.FC<RegisterFormProps> = () => { const [name, setName] = useState<string>(''); const [email, setEmail] = useState<string>(''); const [password, setPassword] = useState<string>(''); const [confirmPassword, setConfirmPassword] = useState<string>(''); const [message, setMessage] = useState<string>(''); const loading = useStore(loadingRegister); const error = useStore(errorRegister); const handleRegister = (e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); if (password !== confirmPassword) { setMessage('Passwords do not match'); return; } setMessage(''); registerRequest(name, email, password); }; return ( <> <form onSubmit={handleRegister} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6'> {message && <Message variant='danger'>{message}</Message>} {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} {loading && <Loader />} <div> <label htmlFor='name'>Name:</label> <input type='text' name='name' id='name' required placeholder='Enter name' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={name} onChange={(e) => setName(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='email'> Email:</label> <input type='email' name='email' id='email' required placeholder='Enter email' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={email} onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='password'> Password:</label> <input type='password' name='password' id='password' required placeholder='Enter password' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={password} onChange={(e) => setPassword(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='confirmPassword'>Confirm Password:</label> <input type='password' name='confirmPassword' id='confirmPassword' required placeholder='Confirm password' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={confirmPassword} onChange={(e) => setConfirmPassword(e.target.value)} /> </div> <p className='my-5 text-right'> Already have an account?{' '} <a href='/login' className='text-blue-500 underline'> Login </a> </p> <Button loading={loading}>Register</Button> </form> </> ); };
In the code above, we define some states for our form inputs, including name
, email
, password
, confirmPassword
, and message
. Also, we extract the values in the loadingRegister
and errorRegister
global states and put them in variables.
We also created the handleRegister
function, which accepts a form event and checks that the entered password
matches the confirmPassword
field. If the passwords match, we call the registerRequest
function defined in the state/auth.ts
file.
The jsx
returns a form, a bunch of grouped labels and inputs, and a Submit button at the end.
Now, we can use the Heading,
Layout
, and RegisterForm
components in the pages/register.astro
file:
// pages/register.astro --- import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; import { RegisterForm } from '../components/RegisterForm'; --- <Layout title='Astro Register' description='Register an account'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Register' variant='h1' textAlign='center' /> <RegisterForm client:load /> </div> </Layout>
The registration page should now look like this:
The process for the login page is similar:
// components/LoginForm.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useState } from 'react'; import { errorLogin, loadingLogin, loginRequest } from '../state/auth'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Message } from './Message'; type LoginFormProps = {}; export const LoginForm: React.FC<LoginFormProps> = () => { const [email, setEmail] = useState<string>(''); const [password, setPassword] = useState<string>(''); const loading = useStore(loadingLogin); const error = useStore(errorLogin); const handleLogin = (e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); loginRequest(email, password); }; return ( <form onSubmit={handleLogin} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6'> {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} <div> <label htmlFor='email'> Email:</label> <input type='email' name='email' id='email' required placeholder='Enter email' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={email} onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='password'> Password:</label> <input type='password' name='password' id='password' required placeholder='Enter password' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={password} onChange={(e) => setPassword(e.target.value)} /> </div> <p className='my-5 text-right'> Don't have an account?{' '} <a href='/register' className='text-blue-500 underline'> Register </a> </p> <Button loading={loading}>Login</Button> </form> ); };
Note that in the handleLogin
function, we call the loginRequest
function to make the API call as we have defined in state/auth.ts
.
We can use the above component in the pages/login.astro
file like so:
// pages/login.astro --- import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import { LoginForm } from '../components/LoginForm'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; --- <Layout title='Astro Login' description='Login an account'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Login' variant='h1' textAlign='center' /> <LoginForm client:load /> </div> </Layout>
The login page should look like this:
This next part is important! After creating a new user, go to your MongoDB database and update the user to an admin by setting isAdmin
to true
:
After that, you can log out and log in again to see new links on the nav:
The manage products page will contain a Create Product button, a dialog to create a product, and a table to view products in the database.
First, let’s set up the components/CreateProduct.tsx
file:
// components/CreateProduct.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useState } from 'react'; import { createProductRequest, errorCreateProduct, listProductRequest, loadingCreateProduct } from '../state/products'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; import { Message } from './Message'; const categoryItems = ['phones', 'computers', 'electronics', 'phone accessories', 'fashion', 'bags']; type CreateProductProps = { onClose(): void; }; export const CreateProduct: React.FC<CreateProductProps> = ({ onClose }) => { const [name, setName] = useState<string>(''); const [price, setPrice] = useState<string>(''); const [brand, setBrand] = useState<string>(''); const [category, setCategory] = useState<string>(''); const [countInStock, setCountInStock] = useState<string>(''); const [description, setDescription] = useState<string>(''); const [image, setImage] = useState<string>(''); const [message, setMessage] = useState<string>(''); const error = useStore(errorCreateProduct); const loading = useStore(loadingCreateProduct); const handleCreateProduct = useCallback( async (e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); if (!name || !price || !brand || !category || !countInStock || !description || !image) { setMessage('Missing inputs'); return; } await createProductRequest(name, price, brand, category, countInStock, description, image).then((value) => { onClose(); listProductRequest(); }); }, [name, price, brand, category, countInStock, description, image] ); return ( <form onSubmit={handleCreateProduct} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6 pb-28'> <Heading text='Create Product' variant='h3' textAlign='center' /> <br /> {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} <div> <label htmlFor='name'>Product Name:</label> <input type='text' name='name' id='name' required placeholder='Enter name' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={name} onChange={(e) => { console.log({ vall: e.target.value }); setName(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='brand'>Brand:</label> <input type='text' name='brand' id='name' required placeholder='Enter brand' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={brand} onChange={(e) => { setBrand(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='price'>Price:</label> <input type='number' name='price' id='price' required placeholder='Enter price' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={price} onChange={(e) => { setPrice(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='category'>Category:</label> <select name='category' id='category' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full capitalize' value={category} onChange={(e) => { setCategory(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} > {categoryItems?.map((item) => { return <option value={item}>{item}</option>; })} </select> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='countInStock'>Count in stock:</label> <input type='number' name='countInStock' id='countInStock' required placeholder='Enter count in stock' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={countInStock} onChange={(e) => { setCountInStock(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='description'>Description:</label> <textarea name='description' id='description' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={description} onChange={(e) => { setDescription(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} ></textarea> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='image'>Image Url:</label> <input type='text' name='image' id='image' required placeholder='Enter image url' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={image} onChange={(e) => { setImage(e.target.value); setMessage(''); }} /> </div> <br /> {image && <img src={image} width={300} height={300} style={{ objectFit: 'cover' }} alt='Product image' />} {message && <Message variant='danger'>{message}</Message>} <br /> <Button loading={loading}>Submit</Button> </form> ); };
This file begins with the usual import statements. Then, we have the list of category items and a prop type for our component containing only an onClose
value.
In the component, we have various states, which — besides the message
state — are used directly in the form. We also have the loading
and error
states derived from their respective global states for this product creation functionality.
The handleCreateProduct
function checks that all the form states are present. If they’re not, we update the message
state with an error message. Otherwise, we call the createProductRequest
function defined in state/product.ts
.
The createProductRequest
function is asynchronous, so we can use .then
to detect when the operation is successful. Once it succeeds, we call the onClose
and listProductRequest
functions defined in state/product.ts
.
You may have noticed that we passed items to the dependency arrays. This is useful because we want the function to be able to run when the value of any of those items changes.
Now, let’s build the page. Add the following code to the components/AdminManageProducts.tsx
file:
// components/AdminManageProducts.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { deleteProductRequest, errorDeleteProduct, errorProductList, listProductRequest, loadingDeleteProduct, loadingProductList, productListState, } from '../state/products'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { CreateProduct } from './CreateProduct'; import { Dialog } from './Dialog'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; type ManageProductsProps = {}; export const AdminManageProducts: React.FC<ManageProductsProps> = () => { const loadingList = useStore(loadingProductList); const errorList = useStore(errorProductList); const productList = useStore(productListState); const loadingDelete = useStore(loadingDeleteProduct); const errorDelete = useStore(errorDeleteProduct); const [openForm, setOpenForm] = useState<boolean>(false); const handleDelete = useCallback(async (id: string) => { deleteProductRequest(id).then(() => { listProductRequest(); }); }, []); useEffect(() => { listProductRequest(); }, []); return ( <div className='p-6'> <Button size='small' onClick={() => setOpenForm(true)}> Create Product </Button> <Dialog open={openForm} onClose={() => setOpenForm(false)}> <CreateProduct onClose={() => setOpenForm(false)} /> </Dialog> {errorList && <Message variant='danger'>{errorList}</Message>} {loadingList && <Loader variant='large' />} {errorDelete && <Message variant='danger'>{errorDelete}</Message>} <div className='w-full my-8 max-w-[1800px] mx-auto overflow-auto'> <table className='table-auto border-4 w-full whitespace-nowrap'> <thead className='border-b-2'> <tr className='bg-gray-500 text-white '> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Name</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Brand</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Price</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Category</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Count in stock</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Action</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> {productList?.products?.map((product) => { return ( <tr className='capitalize border-b-2' key={product?._id}> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{product?.name}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{product?.brand}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>${product?.price}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{product?.category}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{product?.countInStock}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> <span className='flex gap-4'> <a href={`/product/${product?._id}`} className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[100px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800 text-sm' > View </a> <button onClick={() => handleDelete(product?._id)} disabled={loadingDelete} className='bg-red-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[100px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-red-800 text-sm' > Remove {loadingDelete && <Loader variant='small' />} </button> </span> </td> </tr> ); })} </tbody> </table> </div> </div> ); };
In this component, we extract the states for listing and deleting products using useStore
and the appropriate states defined in state/product.ts
. Then, we define another state to control opening and closing the dialog.
We also have a handleDelete
function that accepts an id
and calls deleteProductRequest
. After the delete
operation is successful, we call the listProductRequest
function. In the useEffect
Hook, we call the listProductRequest
function when the page loads for the first time.
In the jsx
, we have a Create Product button that sets the openForm
state to true
. Then, we use the component/Dialog.tsx
component and pass the CreateProduct
component we created earlier as a child component.
Next, we have two Message
components that render the errorList
and errorDelete
messages. We also have a Loader
component controlled by the loadingList
variable.
Lastly, we have a table with name
, brand
, and other table head
values. Meanwhile, as part of the table’s body
, we have a link that will navigate the user to a single product screen and a button that calls the handleDelete
function.
With all of that set up, we can use the components/AdminManageProducts.tsx
component in the pages/manage-products.astro
file:
// pages/manage-products.astro --- import { AdminManageProducts } from '../components/AdminManageProducts'; import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; --- <Layout title='Manage Products' description='Manage products'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Manage Products' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <AdminManageProducts client:load /> </div> </Layout>
Our Create Product dialog and form should work as shown below:
After submitting the product, you should see a table with your products, a View link, and a Remove button:
Try creating multiple products to test the delete functionality.
At the moment, clicking on the View button above might result in an error or show a blank screen. To fix that, let’s update our pages/product/[id].astro
file. We also have to implement the Rating
, AddReview
, Select
, and ProductDetails
components, since we’ll use them on our page.
The Rating
component will display a five-star rating system. Depending on the average value of all submitted ratings, it will show full, half, or blank stars. This component accepts value
and text
props:
value
will show the item’s ratingtext
will show any extra info about the rating, such as the review countAdd the following code inside the components/Rating.tsx
file:
// components/Rating.tsx import React from 'react'; import { IoMdStarOutline, IoMdStar, IoMdStarHalf } from 'react-icons/io'; type RatingProps = { value: number; text: string; }; export const Rating: React.FC<RatingProps> = ({ value, text }) => { return ( <div className=''> <div className='flex text-yellow-500'> {value >= 1 ? ( <IoMdStar size={20} /> ) : value >= 0.5 ? ( <IoMdStarHalf size={20} /> ) : ( <IoMdStarOutline size={20} /> )} {value >= 2 ? ( <IoMdStar size={20} /> ) : value >= 1.5 ? ( <IoMdStarHalf size={20} /> ) : ( <IoMdStarOutline size={20} /> )} {value >= 3 ? ( <IoMdStar size={20} /> ) : value >= 2.5 ? ( <IoMdStarHalf size={20} /> ) : ( <IoMdStarOutline size={20} /> )} {value >= 4 ? ( <IoMdStar size={20} /> ) : value >= 3.5 ? ( <IoMdStarHalf size={20} /> ) : ( <IoMdStarOutline size={20} /> )} {value >= 5 ? ( <IoMdStar size={20} /> ) : value >= 4.5 ? ( <IoMdStarHalf size={20} /> ) : ( <IoMdStarOutline size={20} /> )} </div> {text && <span className='text-sm block pl-1 capitalize'>{text}</span>} </div> ); };
Next, the Select
component returns a select
tag that generates an array of numbers based on the length
passed as prop. It also accepts value
, onChange
, and other props:
// component/Select.tsx import React from 'react'; type SelectProps = { value: string | number; onChange(e: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLSelectElement>): void; name?: string; length: number; maxWidth?: string; }; const Select: React.FC<SelectProps> = ({ value, onChange, name = 'count in stock', length, maxWidth = '100px' }) => { return ( <select name={name} onChange={onChange} value={value} className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' style={{ maxWidth }} > {[...Array.from({ length }).keys()].map((num) => { return ( <option key={num} value={num + 1}> {num + 1} </option> ); })} </select> ); }; export default Select;
Now, let’s work on the addReview
component. We want to enable users to select a rating value from one to five and add a comment about a product. After, the rating
and comment
values stored in the state are submitted to the server using the reviewProductRequest
function defined in state/product.ts
file.
This component will contain the loading
and error
states derived from errorReviewProduct
and loadingReviewProduct
. The jsx
will contain Select
and textarea
elements for the rating
and component
inputs, respectively:
// components/AddReview.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useState } from 'react'; import { errorReviewProduct, getProductRequest, loadingReviewProduct, reviewProductRequest } from '../state/products'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Message } from './Message'; import Select from './Select'; type AddReviewProps = { id: string; }; export const AddReview: React.FC<AddReviewProps> = ({ id }) => { const error = useStore(errorReviewProduct); const loading = useStore(loadingReviewProduct); const [comment, setComment] = useState<string>(''); const [rating, setRating] = useState<string>(''); const handleAddReview = useCallback( (e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); if (!comment || !rating) { return; } reviewProductRequest(id, rating, comment).then(() => { getProductRequest(id); setComment(''); setRating(''); }); }, [id, rating, comment] ); return ( <div className='w-full'> <h2 className='text-xl pt-6 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase'>Add Reviews</h2> <div> <form onSubmit={handleAddReview}> {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} <div className='flex flex-col'> <label htmlFor='rating'>Rating</label> <Select length={5} onChange={(e) => setRating(e.target.value)} value={rating} name='rating' /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='comment'>Comment</label> <textarea name='comment' id='comment' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={comment} onChange={(e) => { setComment(e.target.value); }} required ></textarea> <br /> <Button size='small' loading={loading}> Submit </Button> </div> </form> </div> </div> ); };
Next, the components/ProductDetails.tsx
component simply accepts an id
as its prop. In the component, we’ll define the loadingProduct
, errorProduct
, and product
variables derived from their respective analogs from the state/product.ts
file.
We’ll get the product’s rating
and reviewsCount
from the product
value. Similarly, we’ll get the cartItems
from the cart
defined in state/cart.ts
. We’ll then define a qty
state and handleAddToCart
function that calls the addToCart
function defined in state/cart.ts
.
Our component houses two useEffect
Hooks. In the first, we fetch the product details. In the second, we take the cartItem
and set the initial value of the cart item’s qty
that matches the id
passed in. This approach sets any necessary initial data from a single point of truth.
In the returned jsx
, we have some error
and loading
components, along with some tags to display the information from the fetched product. We also use the Rating
and AddReview
components we previously created and have a button that calls the handleAddToCart
function. Lastly, we have another jsx
to return the list of reviews:
// components/ProductDetails.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { FaArrowLeft } from 'react-icons/fa'; import { addToCart, cart } from '../state/cart'; import { errorGetProduct, getProductRequest, loadingGetProduct, productGetState } from '../state/products'; import { AddReview } from './AddReview'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; import { Rating } from './Rating'; import Select from './Select'; type ProductDetailsProps = { id: string; }; export const ProductDetails: React.FC<ProductDetailsProps> = ({ id }) => { const loadingProduct = useStore(loadingGetProduct); const errorProduct = useStore(errorGetProduct); const product = useStore(productGetState); const rating = product?.rating; const reviewsCount = product?.reviews?.length; const cartItems = useStore(cart); const [qty, setQty] = useState<string | number>('1'); const handleAddToCart = useCallback(async (quantity: string | number) => { await addToCart(id, Number(quantity)); }, []); useEffect(() => { getProductRequest(id); }, [id]); useEffect(() => { const cartItem = cartItems?.find((cartItem) => cartItem?.product === id); setQty(cartItem?.qty || 1); }, [cartItems]); return ( <section> {errorProduct && <Message variant='danger'>{errorProduct}</Message>} {loadingProduct && <Loader variant='large' />} <Heading text={product?.name || ''} variant='h1' textAlign='center' /> <a href='/' className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[100px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800 text-sm items-center' > <FaArrowLeft size={15} /> Back </a> <div className='grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-3 gap-8 py-6'> <article> <div> <img src={product.image} alt={product.name} className='w-full h-[500px] object-cover' /> </div> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl pt-6 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase'>Customer Reviews</h2> {!product?.reviews?.length && <Message variant='info'>There are no Reviews</Message>} {product?.reviews?.map((review) => { return ( <div className='border-2 mb-4 p-2'> <div> <span>{review?.name}</span> <span> <Rating text={''} value={review?.rating} /> </span> </div> <p>{review?.comment}</p> </div> ); })} </article> <article> <div> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl mx-auto border px-4 pt-4 pb-8 uppercase'>{product?.name}</h2> <div className='text-xl md:text-2xl mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'> <Rating value={rating} text={`${reviewsCount} reviews`} /> </div> <div className='text-sm block capitalize mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'> Price: ${product?.price} </div> <div className='text-sm block mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'> Description: {product?.description} </div> <AddReview id={id} /> </div> </article> <article> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'>Price: ${product?.price}</div> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'> Status: {product?.countInStock ? 'In Stock' : 'Out of Stock'} </div> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 items-center mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'> Quantity: <Select length={product?.countInStock} onChange={(e) => setQty(e.target.value)} value={qty} /> </div> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pb-3 justify-center'> <Button size='small' onClick={() => handleAddToCart(qty)} type='button'> ADD TO CART </Button> </div> </article> </div> </section> ); };
Now, let’s update our product/[id].astro
file to match the below:
// product/[id].astro --- import { ProductDetails } from '../../components/ProductDetails'; import Layout from '../../layouts/Layout.astro'; const id = Astro.url?.pathname?.split('/')[2]; --- <Layout title='Manage Products' description='Manage products'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto px-4'> <ProductDetails client:load id={id || ''} /> </div> </Layout>
Notice that we’re grabbing the id
from the url
before passing it as a prop to the ProductDetails.tsx
component. Now, navigating to a product screen should result in something like this:
Note that you can now select a quantity and add the item to the cart.
The cart screen will house the cart items list. First, let’s build the CartItem
component that will be responsible for updating the quantity of a cart item or removing the cart item entirely.
Open components/CartItem.tsx
component and add this code:
// components/CartItem.tsx import React, { useCallback, useState } from 'react'; import { addToCart, removeFromCart } from '../state/cart'; import type { ICartItem } from '../state/cart'; import Select from './Select'; import { FaTrash } from 'react-icons/fa'; export const CartItem: React.FC<ICartItem> = ({ image, name, price, product, qty, countInStock }) => { const [quantity, setQuantity] = useState<number | string>(qty); const handleCartQuantityUpdate = useCallback(async (quantity: string) => { await addToCart(product, Number(quantity)); }, []); const handleRemoveFromCart = useCallback(async () => { await removeFromCart(product); }, []); return ( <div className=' w-full max-w-[600px] border-4 mb-6 mx-auto p-4 bg-slate-50'> <article className='flex gap-6 items-center w-full flex-col md:flex-row'> <div> <div className='w-[100px] h-[100px] '> <img src={image} className='w-[100px] h-[100px] object-cover' /> </div> </div> <div className='whitespace-nowrap'> <p>{name}</p> </div> <div> <p>${price}</p> </div> <div className='w-full min-w-[120px] mx-auto flex justify-center'> <Select length={countInStock} onChange={(e) => { handleCartQuantityUpdate(e.target.value); setQuantity(e.target.value); }} value={quantity.toString()} maxWidth={'120px'} /> </div> <div> <FaTrash className='text-gray-700 cursor-pointer' size={20} onClick={handleRemoveFromCart} /> </div> </article> </div> ); };
The CartItem
component accepts the ICartItem
type we previously defined in the state/cart.ts
file. It also contains:
quantity
state initialized from the product quantity received as a prophandleCartQuantityUpdate
function that simply calls the addToCart
function to update the quantity of the cart itemhandleRemoveFromCart
function that calls the removeFromCart
functionIn the jsx
, we simply have a Select
component to change the quantity and a trash icon that calls the handleRemoveFromCart
, among other markups.
Next, let’s implement the CartList
component. After importing dependencies, we will derive our cartItem
from the cart
global state. Then, we’ll calculate the subTotalQuantity
and subTotalAmount
, which we’ll eventually pass to the jsx
.
In the jsx
, we have a Message
component with a link, which will only be displayed when there are no cart items. The other part of the jsx
is the loop for the CartItem
and also the link to navigate to the checkout screen. The components/CartList.tsx
file should look similar to this:
// components/CartList.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import { useMemo } from 'react'; import { cart } from '../state/cart'; import type { ICartItem } from '../state/cart'; import { CartItem } from './CartItem'; import { Message } from './Message'; type CartListProps = {}; export const CartList: React.FC<CartListProps> = () => { const cartItems = useStore(cart); const subTotalQuantity = useMemo(() => { return cartItems?.reduce((cummulation, item) => cummulation + item.qty, 0); }, [cartItems]); // Total amount of individual items const subTotalAmount = useMemo(() => { return cartItems ?.reduce((cummulation: number, item: ICartItem) => cummulation + item.qty * item.price, 0) .toFixed(2); }, [cartItems]); return ( <section className='p-6'> {!cartItems?.length && ( <Message variant='secondary'> You have selected no items{' '} <a href='/' className='underline text-blue-500'> Go Home </a> </Message> )} {cartItems?.length && ( <div className='flex gap-10 justify-center'> <div> {cartItems?.map((cartItem) => { return ( <CartItem countInStock={cartItem?.countInStock} image={cartItem?.image} name={cartItem?.name} price={cartItem?.price} product={cartItem?.product} qty={cartItem?.qty} /> ); })} </div> <div> <article className=' w-full max-w-[600px] border-4 mb-6 mx-auto bg-slate-50 py-4'> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl pb-2 px-4 mx-auto uppercase border border-t-0'> Subtotal ({subTotalQuantity}) items </h2> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto border border-t-0 px-4 pt-4 pb-3'>${subTotalAmount}</div> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto px-4 pb-3 justify-center'> <a href='/checkout' className='bg-slate-900 text-white px-2 py-2 w-full max-w-[250px] flex gap-3 justify-center mt-8 cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800' > PROCEED TO CHECKOUT </a> </div> </article> </div> </div> )} </section> ); };
Finally, the pages/cart.astro
file will look similar to this:
// pages/cart.astro --- import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; import { CartList } from '../components/CartList'; --- <Layout title='Cart Items' description='Cart Items'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Cart Items' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <CartList client:load /> </div> </Layout>
Here’s how the resulting cart component should look now:
The checkout page contains three subpages: Shipping
, Payment
, and PlaceOrder
. To assemble the pages properly, we’ll start by building the shipping page.
The shipping page simply contains a form for the user’s shipping address info — including address
, city,
postalCode
, and country
— all put in a local state.
After the form is filled, we simply save the address to the localStorage
and redirect the user to a new page. On the initial render of the new page, we get the shipping address from the localStorage
and store it to the local state.
To implement this screen, open the components/Shipping.tsx
file and add the following code:
// components/Shipping.tsx import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; type ShippingProps = {}; export const Shipping: React.FC<ShippingProps> = () => { const [address, setAddress] = useState<string>(''); const [city, setCity] = useState<string>(''); const [postalCode, setPostalCode] = useState<string>(''); const [country, setCountry] = useState<string>(''); const handleSaveShippingAddress = useCallback( (e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); localStorage.setItem('shippingAddress', JSON.stringify({ address, city, postalCode, country })); window.location.replace('/checkout?segment=payment'); }, [address, city, postalCode, country] ); useEffect(() => { // Once Page loads prefill info from storage const shippingStorage = localStorage.getItem('shippingAddress') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('shippingAddress') || '') : null; if (shippingStorage) { setAddress(shippingStorage?.address); setCity(shippingStorage?.city); setPostalCode(shippingStorage?.postalCode); setCountry(shippingStorage?.country); } }, []); return ( <div> <form onSubmit={handleSaveShippingAddress} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6 pb-28'> <Heading text='Shipping Address' variant='h3' /> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='address'>Address:</label> <input type='text' name='address' id='address' required placeholder='Enter address' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={address} onChange={(e) => { setAddress(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='city'>City:</label> <input type='text' name='city' id='city' required placeholder='Enter city' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={city} onChange={(e) => { setCity(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='postalCode'>Postal Code</label> <input type='text' name='postalCode' id='postalCode' required placeholder='Enter postal Code' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={postalCode} onChange={(e) => { setPostalCode(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='country'>Country</label> <input type='text' name='country' id='country' required placeholder='Enter country' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={country} onChange={(e) => { setCountry(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <Button>Save</Button> </form> </div> ); };
The payment page behaves in a similar way to the shipping page, but manages the payment method instead. We can open components/Payment.tsx
and add the following code:
// components/Payment.tsx import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; type PaymentProps = {}; export const Payment: React.FC<PaymentProps> = () => { const [paymentMethod, setPaymentMethod] = useState<string>('paystack'); const handleSavePaymentMethod = useCallback((e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => { e.preventDefault(); localStorage.setItem('paymentMethod', JSON.stringify({ paymentMethod })); window.location.replace('/checkout?segment=place-order'); }, []); useEffect(() => { // Once Page loads prefill info from storage const paymentMethodStorage = localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') || '') : null; if (paymentMethodStorage) { setPaymentMethod(paymentMethodStorage?.paymentMethod); } }, []); return ( <div> <form onSubmit={handleSavePaymentMethod} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6 pb-28'> <Heading text='Payment Method' variant='h3' /> <br /> <div className='flex gap-4'> <label htmlFor='paystack'>Address:</label> <input type='radio' name='paymentMethod' id='paystack' required className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg' value={'paystack'} checked={paymentMethod === 'paystack'} onChange={(e) => { setPaymentMethod(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <div className='flex gap-4'> <label htmlFor='paypal'>Paypal:</label> <input type='radio' name='paymentMethod' id='paypal' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg' value={'paypal'} checked={paymentMethod === 'paypal'} disabled onChange={(e) => { setPaymentMethod(e.target.value); }} /> </div> <br /> <Button>Save</Button> </form> </div> ); };
PlaceOrder
pageThe code for the components/PlaceOrder.tsx
file is as follows:
// components/PlaceOrder.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useState, useEffect, useMemo, useCallback } from 'react'; import { cart } from '../state/cart'; import type { ICartItem } from '../state/cart'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { errorPlaceOrder, loadingPlaceOrder, placeOrderRequest } from '../state/order'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; const formatWithDecimals = (value: number) => { return (Math.round(value * 100) / 100).toFixed(2); }; type PlaceOrderProps = {}; export const PlaceOrder: React.FC<PlaceOrderProps> = () => { const cartItems = useStore(cart); const loading = useStore(loadingPlaceOrder); const error = useStore(errorPlaceOrder); const [address, setAddress] = useState<string>(''); const [city, setCity] = useState<string>(''); const [postalCode, setPostalCode] = useState<string>(''); const [country, setCountry] = useState<string>(''); const [paymentMethod, setPaymentMethod] = useState<string>('paystack'); const priceSummation = useMemo(() => { const itemsPrice = formatWithDecimals( (cartItems || [])?.reduce((cummulation, item) => cummulation + item.price * item.qty, 0) ); // Calculate shipping fee const shippingFee = 50; // calculate tax fee const taxFee = 0; const totalPrice = formatWithDecimals(Number(itemsPrice) + Number(shippingFee) + Number(taxFee)); return { itemsPrice, shippingFee, taxFee, totalPrice, }; }, [cartItems]); const handlePlaceOrder = useCallback(async () => { if (!address || !city || !postalCode || !country || !paymentMethod) { return; } const shippingAddress = { address, city, postalCode, country }; await placeOrderRequest( cartItems || [], shippingAddress, paymentMethod, Number(priceSummation?.itemsPrice), priceSummation?.taxFee, Number(priceSummation?.totalPrice), priceSummation?.shippingFee ); }, [address, city, postalCode, country, paymentMethod, priceSummation, cartItems]); useEffect(() => { // Once Page loads prefill info from storage const shippingStorage = localStorage.getItem('shippingAddress') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('shippingAddress') || '') : null; if (shippingStorage) { setAddress(shippingStorage?.address); setCity(shippingStorage?.city); setPostalCode(shippingStorage?.postalCode); setCountry(shippingStorage?.country); } // Once Page loads prefill info from storage const paymentMethodStorage = localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') || '') : null; if (paymentMethodStorage) { setPaymentMethod(paymentMethodStorage?.paymentMethod); } }, []); return ( <div className='max-w-[900px] mx-auto py-6 pb-28'> {loading && <Loader variant='large' />} {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} <div className='flex gap-6 justify-center'> <div className='w-full max-w-[500px] flex-1'> <div className='border-b-2 p-4'> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl pt-6 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase text-gray-700'>Shipping Address </h2> <p className='text-gray-600'> {address}, {postalCode}, {city}, {country}. </p> </div> <div className='border-b-2 p-4'> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl pt-6 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase text-gray-700'>Payment Method </h2> <p className='text-gray-600 capitalize'>{paymentMethod}</p> </div> <div className='border-b-2 p-4'> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl pt-6 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase text-gray-700'>Order Items </h2> {cartItems?.map((cartItem, index) => ( <PlaceOrderItem cartItem={cartItem} key={`${cartItem?.name}${index}`} /> ))} </div> </div> <div className='w-[400px] py-6'> <div className=' text-gray-700'> <h2 className='text-xl md:text-2xl border-2 pb-2 mx-auto uppercase text-gray-700 p-4'>Order Summary</h2> </div> <div className='border-2 border-t-0 flex justify-between text-gray-600 p-2 py-4'> <p>Items Price:</p> <p className='text-left'>${priceSummation?.itemsPrice}</p> </div> <div className='border-2 border-t-0 flex justify-between text-gray-600 p-2 py-4'> <p>Shipping fee:</p> <p className='text-left'>${priceSummation?.shippingFee}</p> </div> <div className='border-2 border-t-0 flex justify-between text-gray-600 p-2 py-4'> <p>Tax fee:</p> <p className='text-left'>${priceSummation?.taxFee}</p> </div> <div className='border-2 border-t-0 flex justify-between text-gray-600 p-2 py-4'> <p>Total fee:</p> <p className='text-left'>${priceSummation?.totalPrice}</p> </div> <div className='text-sm flex gap-4 mx-auto border-2 border-t-0 px-4 pb-3 justify-center'> <Button size='small' type='button' disabled={!address || !city || !postalCode || !country || !paymentMethod || loading} onClick={handlePlaceOrder} > Place Order {loading && <Loader variant='small' />} </Button> </div> </div> </div> </div> ); }; type PlaceOrderItemProps = { cartItem: ICartItem; }; const PlaceOrderItem: React.FC<PlaceOrderItemProps> = ({ cartItem }) => { return ( <div className='text-gray-600 flex justify-between mb-4 items-end'> <div> <div style={{ width: '50px' }}> <img src={cartItem?.image} className='w-full h-full object-cover' /> </div> </div> <div> <p>{cartItem?.name}</p> </div> <div> {cartItem?.qty} x ${cartItem?.price} = ${cartItem?.qty * cartItem?.price} </div> </div> ); };
The PlaceOrder
page is where we take the details we have collected so far and save them to the server. After importing variables, we’ll define a utility function to round up numbers to two decimal places.
Then inside the component, we get:
cartItems
from cart
loading
from loadingPlaceOrder
error
from errorPlaceOrder
After, we’ll define states to hold the details that we will be fetching from the localStorage
. We’ll also have a priceSummation
memo to calculate the itemsPrice
, shippingFee
, taxFee
, and totalPrice
.
We’ll set up a handlePlaceOrder
function we can use to call the placeOrderRequest
function in state/order
. In the useEffect
Hook, we are simply getting the shippingAddress
and paymentMethod
from the localStorage
and setting it to the local state.
In the jsx
, we’re simply displaying the details of the order items. Notably, we have the PlaceOrderItem
component and a Place Order
button users can click to place their orders. Now that the order placement logic is done, let’s handle payments in the next section.
CheckoutCart
component and checkout.astro
pageThe CheckoutCart
component simply groups the shipping
, payment
, and place-order
pages. It also contains a local navbar for navigating between the pages. Most importantly, it accepts a segment
as a prop. The component should now look similar to this:
// components/CheckoutCart.tsx import React from 'react'; import { Payment } from './Payment'; import { PlaceOrder } from './PlaceOrder'; import { Shipping } from './Shipping'; type CheckoutCartProps = { segment: string; }; export const CheckoutCart: React.FC<CheckoutCartProps> = ({ segment }) => { return ( <section className='px-4 '> <div className='flex justify-center gap-6 mb-8'> <a href='/checkout?segment=shipping' className={segment !== 'shipping' ? 'text-gray-500' : 'text-gray-800'}> Shipping </a> <a href='/checkout?segment=payment' className={segment !== 'payment' ? 'text-gray-500' : 'text-gray-800'}> Payment </a> <a href='/checkout?segment=place-order' className={segment !== 'place-order' ? 'text-gray-500' : 'text-gray-800'} > Place Order </a> </div> <div> {segment === 'shipping' && <Shipping />} {segment === 'payment' && <Payment />} {segment === 'place-order' && <PlaceOrder />} </div> </section> ); };
Meanwhile, the pages/checkout.astro
page will extract the segment
from the url
and pass it to the CheckoutCart
component:
// pages/checkout.astro --- import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; import { CheckoutCart } from '../components/CheckoutCart'; const segment = Astro.url?.search?.split('=')[1] || 'shipping'; --- <Layout title='Checkout ' description='Checkout'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Checkout' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <CheckoutCart segment={segment} client:load /> </div> </Layout>
The checkout flow should now look similar to the below. First, the user will put in their shipping information:
Next up is the payment method:
Finally, there is the order summary screen where the user can place their order:
After clicking on the Place Order button in the page above, and once the order is successfully processed, users will be redirected to the order/:order-id
page. At the moment, this screen hasn’t been built, so it will throw an error or display a white screen. Let’s add the order details screen now.
Before we add the components/OrderDetails.tsx
screen, we must first implement the components/PaymentProcessor.tsx
component. This component will implement our desired payment platform — Paypal, Paystack, etc.
For this tutorial, we’ll be using Paystack. In the components/PaymentProcessor.tsx
file, add the following code:
// components/PaymentProcessor.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { PaystackButton } from 'react-paystack'; import { authState } from '../state/auth'; import type { IPaymentResult } from '../state/order'; type PaymentResponseType = { reference: string; trans: string; status: string; message: string; transaction: string; trxref: string; redirecturl: string; }; type PaymentProcessorProps = { amount: number; onPlaceOrder(paymentResult: IPaymentResult): void; }; export const PaymentProcessor: React.FC<PaymentProcessorProps> = ({ amount, onPlaceOrder }) => { const user = useStore(authState); const [paymentMethod, setPaymentMethod] = useState<string>('paystack'); const config = { reference: new Date().getTime().toString(), email: user?.email, amount: amount * 100, //Amount is in the country's lowest currency. E.g Kobo, so 20000 kobo = N200 publicKey: 'Your public key', }; // you can call this function anything const handlePaystackSuccessAction = useCallback((reference: PaymentResponseType) => { // Place order here onPlaceOrder({ message: reference?.message, reference: reference?.reference, status: reference?.status, transactionId: reference?.transaction, }); }, []); // Mock payment const handleMockSuccessAction = useCallback(() => { // Place order here onPlaceOrder({ message: 'Approved', reference: 'Mock-1234', status: 'success', transactionId: 'Mock-1234', }); }, []); // you can call this function anything const handlePaystackCloseAction = useCallback(() => { // implementation for whatever you want to do when the Paystack dialog closed. console.log('closed'); }, []); const componentProps = { ...config, text: 'Make Payment', onSuccess: (reference: PaymentResponseType) => handlePaystackSuccessAction(reference), onClose: handlePaystackCloseAction, }; useEffect(() => { // Once Page loads prefill info from storage const paymentMethodStorage = localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') ? JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('paymentMethod') || '') : null; if (paymentMethodStorage) { setPaymentMethod(paymentMethodStorage?.paymentMethod); } }, []); return ( <div> {paymentMethod === 'paystack' && ( <PaystackButton {...componentProps} className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded-2xl px-5 py-2 text-lg md:text-xl font-medium w-full flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800' /> )} {/* USe this to mock payment */} {/* {paymentMethod === 'paystack' && ( <button onClick={handleMockSuccessAction} className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded-2xl px-5 py-2 text-lg md:text-xl font-medium w-full flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800' > Make payment </button> )} */} </div> ); };
The PaymentProcessor
component is used to process payment using a given platform. It accepts an amount
and an onPlaceOrder
callback function as props. The onPlaceOrder
callback accepts a payment result type defined in state/order.ts
and will be used to pass data back to our component’s parent.
Inside the PaymentProcessor
component, we extract the authState
and store it in a user
variable. We then define a paymentMethod
state, which we will update in the useEffect
Hook. We also define a config
object which contains the necessary as requested by the react-paystack
library.
Note that the step above might be a different for you if you use another payment platform.
Then, we define the handlePaystackSuccessAction
, which is automatically called when the payment is successful at Paystack. Finally, we assemble the values in the componentProps
, which we then pass to the PaystackButton
in the jsx
.
You can head over to Paystack’s website to create a new account, generate a public key, and replace the publicKey
placeholder in the config
object above. However, if you are having issues using Paystack, you use the handleMockSuccessAction
and the commented-out button
in the jsx
.
Having implemented the PaymentProcessor.tsx
component, we can go ahead and implement the OrderDetails
component:
// components/OrderDetails.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect } from 'react'; import { deliveryRequest, errorDelivery, errorGetOrder, errorPay, getOrderDetailsRequest, loadingDelivery, loadingGetOrder, loadingPay, orderGetState, payRequest, } from '../state/order'; import type { IPaymentResult } from '../state/order'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; import { PaymentProcessor } from './PaymentProcessor'; import { authState } from '../state/auth'; type OrderDetailsProps = { id: string; }; export const OrderDetails: React.FC<OrderDetailsProps> = ({ id }) => { const loadingOrder = useStore(loadingGetOrder); const errorOrder = useStore(errorGetOrder); const order = useStore(orderGetState); const user = useStore(authState); const isAdminLoggedIn = Boolean(user.isAdmin); const loadingPayment = useStore(loadingPay); const errorPayment = useStore(errorPay); const loadingDeliver = useStore(loadingDelivery); const errorDeliver = useStore(errorDelivery); const handleUpdatePaymentStatus = useCallback( async (paymentResult: IPaymentResult) => { // Make payment here payRequest(id, paymentResult).then(() => { getOrderDetailsRequest(id); }); }, [id] ); const handleUpdateDeliveryStatus = useCallback(async () => { // Approved delivery status deliveryRequest(id).then(() => { getOrderDetailsRequest(id); }); }, [id]); useEffect(() => { getOrderDetailsRequest(id); }, []); return ( <section className='max-w-[1000px] mx-auto'> {errorOrder && <Message variant='danger'>{errorOrder}</Message>} {loadingOrder && <Loader variant='large' />} <Heading text={`Order Details: ${order?._id}`} variant='h1' textAlign='center' /> <div className='grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 gap-8 pb-8'> <div> <article> <Heading text='Shipping' variant='h2' /> <p className='py-4 text-gray-600'> <strong>Name: </strong> {order?.user?.name} </p> <p className='pb-4 text-gray-600'> <strong>Email: </strong> <a href={`mailto:${order?.user?.email}`}>{order?.user?.email}</a> </p> <p className='pb-4 text-gray-600'> <strong>Address:</strong> {order?.shippingAddress?.address}, {order?.shippingAddress?.city} {order?.shippingAddress?.postalCode},{' '} {order?.shippingAddress?.country} </p> {order?.isDelivered ?

By this time, you may have noticed a striking pattern that has made creating this site really easy, despite the length of the tutorial. We start by importing dependencies and components, then define the props. Then we define states, create functions, and use the useEffect
Hook before rendering our jsx
.
For our current component, we accept an id
as part of the prop, then define loadingOrder
, errorOrder
, order
states that derive their values from loadingGetOrder
, errorGetOrder
, and orderGetState
, respectively. Then, we define the user
and the isAdminLoggedIn
state, among others.
We also have the handleUpdatePaymentStatus
function, which we pass to the PaymentProcessor.tsx
component. We then define the handleUpdateDeliveryStatus
function, which admins can use to mark an order as delivered. Finally, we use the getOrderDetailsRequest
API function in the useEffect
Hook.
In the jsx
, we render an error message with a message component and the loading component with a loading indicator. Then, we return the shipping address, payment method, and a list of orders, or an error message when no order item is available.
We also display the pricing and delivery information alongside the PaymentProcessor
and Mark As Delivered button that is visible to admins.
The next step is to use our component in the pages/order/[id].astro
component:
// pages/order/[id].astro --- import Layout from '../../layouts/Layout.astro'; import { OrderDetails } from '../../components/OrderDetails'; const id = Astro.url?.pathname?.split('/')[2]; --- <Layout title='Manage Order' description='Manage Order'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto px-4'> <OrderDetails client:load id={id || ''} /> </div> </Layout>
Our order screen should now look like the below:
This admin-only page will contain a table listing all the orders in the system. The table will also contain a link to view an order’s details and another button to mark the order as delivered. Open the components/AdminManageOrder.tsx
file and add the following:
import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect } from 'react'; import { FaCheck, FaTimes } from 'react-icons/fa'; import { deliveryRequest, errorDelivery, errorOrderList, listOrdersRequest, loadingDelivery, loadingOrderList, orderListState, } from '../state/order'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; type AdminManageOrdersProps = {}; export const AdminManageOrders: React.FC<AdminManageOrdersProps> = () => { const loadingDeliver = useStore(loadingDelivery); const errorDeliver = useStore(errorDelivery); const loadingList = useStore(loadingOrderList); const errorList = useStore(errorOrderList); const orderList = useStore(orderListState); const handleUpdateDeliveryStatus = useCallback(async (id: string) => { // Approved delivery status deliveryRequest(id).then(() => { listOrdersRequest(); }); }, []); useEffect(() => { listOrdersRequest(); }, []); return ( <div className='p-6'> {errorDeliver && <Message variant='danger'>{errorDeliver}</Message>} {loadingDeliver && <Loader variant='large' />} {errorList && <Message variant='danger'>{errorList}</Message>} {loadingList && <Loader variant='large' />} <div className='w-full my-8 max-w-[1800px] mx-auto overflow-auto'> <table className='table-auto border-4 w-full whitespace-nowrap'> <thead className='border-b-2'> <tr className='bg-gray-500 text-white '> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>ID</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>User</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Total</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2 whitespace-nowrap'>Payment status</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2 whitespace-nowrap'>Delivery Status</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Action</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> {orderList?.map((order) => { return ( <tr className='capitalize border-b-2' key={order?._id}> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{order?._id}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{order?.user?.name}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>${order?.totalPrice}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> {order?.isPaid ? ( <FaCheck className='text-green-500' size={20} /> ) : ( <FaTimes className='text-red-500' size={20} /> )} </td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> {order?.isDelivered ? ( <FaCheck className='text-green-500' size={20} /> ) : ( <FaTimes className='text-red-500' size={20} /> )} </td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> <span className='flex gap-4 justify-between'> {order?.isDelivered ? ( 'Delivered' ) : ( <button onClick={() => handleUpdateDeliveryStatus(order?._id)} disabled={loadingDeliver || order?.isDelivered || !order?.isPaid} className='bg-blue-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[200px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-blue-800 text-sm' > Mark As Delivered {loadingDeliver && <Loader variant='small' />} </button> )} <a href={`/order/${order?._id}`} className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[100px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800 text-sm' > View </a> </span> </td> </tr> ); })} </tbody> </table> </div> </div> ); };
In the component above, we define the loading
and error
states for marking an order as delivered and listing the orders. We also have a handleUpdateDeliveryStatus
function that we will use to mark an order as delivered. In the useEffect
Hook, we call the listOrdersRequest
function.
In the jsx
, we return a table that lists the order items we fetched.
Next, let’s use the components/AdminManageOrder.tsx
page in the pages/manage-orders.astro
page:
// pages/manage-orders.astro --- import { AdminManageOrders } from '../components/AdminManageOrders'; import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; --- <Layout title='Manage Orders' description='Manage orders'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Manage Orders' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <AdminManageOrders client:load /> </div> </Layout>
The page we built should look like the below:
This is another admin page, but one of the Action buttons will call a handleMakeAdmin
function that calls makeAdminRequest
to make a user an admin. Let’s start by building out the AdminManageUsers
component before using it in the /manage-users.astro
page:
// components/AdminManageUsers.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect } from 'react'; import { FaCheck } from 'react-icons/fa'; import { errorUpdateUser, errorUsers, loadingUpdateUser, loadingUsers, makeAdminRequest, usersRequest, usersState, } from '../state/user'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; type AdminManageUsersProps = {}; export const AdminManageUsers: React.FC<AdminManageUsersProps> = () => { const loadingList = useStore(loadingUsers); const errorList = useStore(errorUsers); const usersList = useStore(usersState); const loadingUpdate = useStore(loadingUpdateUser); const errorUpdate = useStore(errorUpdateUser); const handleMakeAdmin = useCallback((id: string) => { makeAdminRequest(id).then(() => { usersRequest(); }); }, []); useEffect(() => { usersRequest(); }, []); return ( <div className='p-6'> {errorList && <Message variant='danger'>{errorList}</Message>} {loadingList && <Loader variant='large' />} {errorUpdate && <Message variant='danger'>{errorUpdate}</Message>} {loadingUpdate && <Loader variant='large' />} <div className='w-full my-8 max-w-[1800px] mx-auto overflow-auto'> <table className='table-auto border-4 w-full whitespace-nowrap'> <thead className='border-b-2'> <tr className='bg-gray-500 text-white '> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>ID</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Name</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Email</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Admin</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> {usersList?.map((user) => { return ( <tr className='capitalize border-b-2' key={user?._id}> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{user?._id}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{user?.name}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{user?.email}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> <span className='flex gap-4 justify-between'> {user?.isAdmin ? ( <FaCheck className='text-green-500' size={20} /> ) : ( <button onClick={() => handleMakeAdmin(user?._id || '')} disabled={false} className='bg-blue-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[200px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-blue-800 text-sm' > Make Admin {loadingUpdate && <Loader variant='small' />} </button> )} </span> </td> </tr> ); })} </tbody> </table> </div> </div> ); };
Now, let’s add it to the pages/manage-users.astro
page:
// pages/manage-users.astro --- import { AdminManageUsers } from '../components/AdminManageUsers'; import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; --- <Layout title='Manage Users' description='Manage Users'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='Manage Users' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <AdminManageUsers client:load /> </div> </Layout>
The resulting page should now look like this:
The account page will contain a form for modifying a user’s profile and listing a user’s orders in a table. Open the components/Profile.tsx
file and add the following code:
// components/Profile.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useCallback, useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { FaCheck, FaTimes } from 'react-icons/fa'; import { errorMyOrderList, listMyOrdersRequest, loadingMyOrderList, myOrderListState } from '../state/order'; import { errorGetProfile, errorUpdateProfile, getProfileState, loadingGetProfile, loadingUpdateProfile, profileGetRequest, profileUpdateRequest, } from '../state/user'; import { Button } from './Button'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; type ProfileProps = {}; export const Profile: React.FC<ProfileProps> = () => { const loadingGet = useStore(loadingGetProfile); const errorGet = useStore(errorGetProfile); const profileGet = useStore(getProfileState); const loadingUpdate = useStore(loadingUpdateProfile); const errorUpdate = useStore(errorUpdateProfile); const loadingList = useStore(loadingMyOrderList); const errorList = useStore(errorMyOrderList); const orderList = useStore(myOrderListState); const [name, setName] = useState<string>(''); const [email, setEmail] = useState<string>(''); const handleUpdate = useCallback(async () => { profileUpdateRequest(name, email).then(() => { profileGetRequest(); }); }, [email, name]); useEffect(() => { profileGetRequest(); listMyOrdersRequest(); }, []); useEffect(() => { if (profileGet?.email) { setEmail(profileGet?.email); setName(profileGet?.name); } }, [profileGet]); return ( <section className='p-6'> <div className=' mx-auto'> <div className='max-w-[500px] '> {errorGet && <Message variant='danger'>{errorGet}</Message>} {loadingGet && <Loader variant='large' />} {errorUpdate && <Message variant='danger'>{errorUpdate}</Message>} {loadingUpdate && <Loader variant='large' />} <Heading text='Update Profile' variant='h2' /> <form onSubmit={handleUpdate} className='max-w-[500px] mx-auto py-6'> <div> <label htmlFor='name'>Name:</label> <input type='text' name='name' id='name' required placeholder='Enter name' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={name} onChange={(e) => setName(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <div> <label htmlFor='email'> Email:</label> <input type='email' name='email' id='email' required placeholder='Enter email' className='border-2 border-slate-400 p-2 rounded-lg w-full' value={email} onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)} /> </div> <br /> <Button>Save Changes</Button> </form> </div> <div className='max-w-[1800px] my-8 '> {errorList && <Message variant='danger'>{errorList}</Message>} {loadingList && <Loader variant='large' />} <div> <Heading text='My Orders' variant='h2' /> <div className='w-full py-6 overflow-auto'> <table className='table-auto border-4 w-full whitespace-nowrap'> <thead className='border-b-2'> <tr className='bg-gray-500 text-white '> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>ID</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Total</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2 whitespace-nowrap'>Payment status</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2 whitespace-nowrap'>Delivery Status</th> <th className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>Action</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> {orderList?.map((order) => { return ( <tr className='capitalize border-b-2' key={order?._id}> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{order?._id}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'>{order?.totalPrice}</td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> {order?.isPaid ? ( <FaCheck className='text-green-500' size={20} /> ) : ( <FaTimes className='text-red-500' size={20} /> )} </td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> {order?.isDelivered ? ( <FaCheck className='text-green-500' size={20} /> ) : ( <FaTimes className='text-red-500' size={20} /> )} </td> <td className='text-left border-r-2 px-4 py-2'> <span className='flex gap-4 justify-between'> <a href={`/order/${order?._id}`} className='bg-slate-900 text-white rounded px-4 py-2 w-full max-w-[100px] flex gap-3 justify-center cursor-pointer hover:bg-slate-800 text-sm' > View </a> </span> </td> </tr> ); })} </tbody> </table> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> ); };
In the component above, we extract three categories of global states: GetProfile
, UpdateProfile
, and MyOrderList
. Then, we defined two states for name
and email
.
We also created a handleUpdate
function that calls the profileUpdateRequest
. In the first useEffect
Hook, we call profileGetRequest
and listMyOrdersRequest
. In the second useEffect
Hook, we use the fetched profile values to update the name
and email
states.
Now, we will include our Profile.tsx
component inside our pages/account.astro
page:
// pages/account.astro --- import { Heading } from '../components/Heading'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; import { Profile } from '../components/Profile'; --- <Layout title='User Profile' description='User Profile'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <Heading text='User Profile' variant='h1' textAlign='center' client:load /> <Profile client:load /> </div> </Layout>
Our account page should now look like the below:
Now, we’ve built all the required pages for a functional ecommerce site. However, our site won’t be complete without a homepage.
Let’s start by updating the Showcase
, Product
, and ProductList
components. Update the components/Showcase.tsx
component file like so:
// components/Showcase.tsx import React from 'react'; type ShowcaseProps = {}; export const ShowCase: React.FC<ShowcaseProps> = () => { return ( <div className='border-2 border-slate-400 w-full max-w-[1800px] h-[500px] flex justify-center items-center text-3xl'> Showcase top products here or show any special ad here </div> ); };
Next, update the components/Product.tsx
file:
// components/Product.tsx import React from 'react'; import { type IProduct } from '../state/products'; import { Rating } from './Rating'; type ProductProps = { product: IProduct; }; export const Product: React.FC<ProductProps> = ({ product }) => { return ( <article className='my-3 p-3 rounded border w-[300px] bg-gray-100'> <a href={`/product/${product._id}`}> <img src={product.image} alt={product.name} className='w-full h-[350px] object-cover' /> </a> <div className='p-3'> <a href={`/product/${product._id}`} className='text-lg font-semibold text-blue-500 hover:underline'> {product.name} </a> <div className='text-gray-500'> <Rating value={product?.rating} text={`${product?.numReviews} reviews`} /> </div> <h3 className='text-2xl font-bold text-green-600'>${product.price}</h3> </div> </article> ); };
Now, update the components/ProductList.tsx
file:
// components/ProductList.tsx import { useStore } from '@nanostores/react'; import React, { useEffect } from 'react'; import { errorProductList, listProductRequest, loadingProductList, productListState } from '../state/products'; import { Heading } from './Heading'; import { Loader } from './Loader'; import { Message } from './Message'; import { Product } from './Product'; type ProductListProps = {}; export const ProductList: React.FC<ProductListProps> = () => { const loading = useStore(loadingProductList); const error = useStore(errorProductList); const productList = useStore(productListState); useEffect(() => { listProductRequest(); }, []); return ( <section className='my-8 px-5'> <Heading text='Amazing Products' /> {loading && <Loader variant='large' />} {error && <Message variant='danger'>{error}</Message>} <div className='flex justify-center'> <div className='flex flex-wrap gap-8 mx-auto max-w-[1800px] '> {productList?.products?.map((product) => { return <Product product={product} key={product?._id} />; })} </div> </div> </section> ); };
With that done, we can add the following code to the index.astro
file to build our homepage:
// pages/index.astro --- import { ProductList } from '../components/ProductList'; import { ShowCase } from '../components/Showcase'; import Layout from '../layouts/Layout.astro'; --- <Layout title='Astro Ecommerce' description='We sell high quality stuff'> <div class='max-w-[1800px] mx-auto'> <ShowCase client:load /> <ProductList client:load /> </div> </Layout>
Our homepage should now look similar to the below:
You can get the source code for the frontend on GitHub.
In this article, we focused on constructing an ecommerce site using Astro with React and TypeScript integrations. Additionally, we integrated the site with a custom server for a comprehensive understanding. We also delved into the significance of strong and static typings in frontend projects.
