Works on Open Mercato 0.9, the latest version

Not published by Open Mercato. Review the code before you install it. Open the repository.

  1. Run this in your app folder. It adds the module, registers it and creates its database tables.

    yarn mercato module add @northbound-run/sync-shopify@0.5.0 --allow-third-party && yarn generate && yarn db:migrate

    Or with create-mercato-module:

    npx create-mercato-module install @northbound-run/sync-shopify@0.5.0 && yarn generate && yarn db:migrate
  2. In the admin, open Roles (/backend/roles) and give its 3 permissions to the roles that need them.

  3. Restart the app.

Readme

This is the author's README, shortened. To install, use the steps in Install.

The catalog tests those steps. Install notes in the README may be out of date. The author declares Open Mercato >=0.6.6 <0.7.0. The catalog's test installed it on 0.9.

@northbound-run/sync-shopify

Sync a Shopify store into an Open Mercato app — products, collections, customers, orders and inventory — mapped onto Open Mercato's native catalog, customer and sales entities. Import-only, read-only against Shopify, and safe to run on a schedule.

The package registers five independent Data Sync integrations under one shared Shopify connection. Each can be enabled, scheduled and run on its own.

Show the full README
IntegrationShopify → Open MercatoNotes
Productsproducts, variants, pricesPer-product variant reconciliation; deletes handled on full sync
Collectionscollections → product categoriesMembership synced; smart-collection rules are not preserved
Customerscustomers, addressesAddresses reconciled per customer
Ordersorders, lines, discounts, payments, fulfillmentsTotals reconciled to the cent; limited to the last 60 days unless the app holds read_all_orders
Inventorydaily stock snapshots + out-of-stock historyOwns one table; enables demand-planning corrections

Requirements

  • An Open Mercato app on @open-mercato/core 0.6.x or later, with the integrations and data_sync modules enabled.
  • Node.js 24+ (native fetch, AbortSignal.timeout).
  • PostgreSQL (the framework's database).
  • A configured credential encryption key — Vault KMS or TENANT_DATA_ENCRYPTION_FALLBACK_KEY. Without one, storing the Shopify credentials fails outright (the framework encrypts them at rest).
  • For scheduled and background syncs: @open-mercato/queue on its Redis/BullMQ strategy and @open-mercato/scheduler. Without them the sync still runs on demand, but not unattended.

Install

yarn mercato module add @northbound-run/sync-shopify --allow-third-party
yarn db:migrate

module add registers the module in src/modules.ts and runs mercato generate. db:migrate applies the single migration this package ships (the inventory snapshot table).

The package declares @open-mercato/core / @open-mercato/shared as peer dependencies — your app provides them. This matters: the Data Sync adapter registry is process-global, so a second, nested copy of core installed under this package would leave the adapters invisible to queue workers.

The --allow-third-party flag is required because the package is not under the @open-mercato scope — it is a supply-chain opt-in, nothing more.


Connect a Shopify store

This module authenticates with Shopify's client credentials grant: your app exchanges its own client ID and secret for a short-lived access token, with no browser redirect and no user login. It is the grant Shopify intends for a server-to-server integration against a store you control, which is exactly the self-hosted case here.

Why no access token to paste? Newer Shopify apps do not expose a permanent Admin API token in the UI — only a client ID and client secret (the value beginning shpss_). The module mints and refreshes a 24-hour token from those automatically; you never handle the token yourself.

1. Create the app
  1. In the Shopify Dev Dashboard, create an app.
  2. Configure its Admin API access scopes (see below).
  3. Install the app on the store. The client credentials grant only works for a store the app is installed in.
  4. From the app's Settings → API credentials, copy the Client ID and Client secret.
2. Required scopes

Configure these on the app, then release a new app version — scope changes take effect only on release, and an already-installed app must re-approve them.

ScopeEnables
read_productsproducts, variants, prices — and collections
read_customerscustomers and addresses
read_ordersorders (last 60 days — see below)
read_inventoryinventory levels and unit cost
