OrderProcess

OrderProcess

An OrderProcess is used to define the way the order process works as in: what states an Order can be in, and how it may transition from one state to another. Using the onTransitionStart() hook, an OrderProcess can perform checks before allowing a state transition to occur, and the onTransitionEnd() hook allows logic to be executed after a state change.

For detailed description of the interface members, see the StateMachineConfig docs.

info

This is configured via the orderOptions.process property of your VendureConfig.

Signature
interface OrderProcess<State extends keyof CustomOrderStates | string> extends InjectableStrategy {
transitions?: Transitions<State, State | OrderState> & Partial<Transitions<OrderState | State>>;
onTransitionStart?: OnTransitionStartFn<State | OrderState, OrderTransitionData>;
onTransitionEnd?: OnTransitionEndFn<State | OrderState, OrderTransitionData>;
onTransitionError?: OnTransitionErrorFn<State | OrderState>;
}

DefaultOrderProcessOptions

Options which can be passed to the configureDefaultOrderProcess function to configure an instance of the default OrderProcess. By default, all options are set to true.

Signature
interface DefaultOrderProcessOptions {
checkModificationPayments?: boolean;
checkAdditionalPaymentsAmount?: boolean;
checkAllVariantsExist?: boolean;
arrangingPaymentRequiresContents?: boolean;
arrangingPaymentRequiresCustomer?: boolean;
arrangingPaymentRequiresShipping?: boolean;
arrangingPaymentRequiresStock?: boolean;
checkPaymentsCoverTotal?: boolean;
checkAllItemsBeforeCancel?: boolean;
checkFulfillmentStates?: boolean;
}

checkModificationPayments

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents an Order from transitioning out of the Modifying state if the Order price has changed and there is no Payment or Refund associated with the Modification.

checkAdditionalPaymentsAmount

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents an Order from transitioning out of the ArrangingAdditionalPayment state if the Order's Payments do not cover the full amount of totalWithTax.

checkAllVariantsExist

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents the transition from AddingItems to any other state (apart from Cancelled) if and of the ProductVariants no longer exists due to deletion.

arrangingPaymentRequiresContents

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the ArrangingPayment state if the active Order has no lines.

arrangingPaymentRequiresCustomer

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the ArrangingPayment state if the active Order has no customer associated with it.

arrangingPaymentRequiresShipping

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the ArrangingPayment state if the active Order has no shipping method set.

arrangingPaymentRequiresStock

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the ArrangingPayment state if there is insufficient saleable stock to cover the contents of the Order.

checkPaymentsCoverTotal

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the PaymentAuthorized or PaymentSettled states if the order totalWithTax amount is not covered by Payment(s) in the corresponding states.

checkAllItemsBeforeCancel

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the Cancelled state unless all OrderItems are already cancelled.

checkFulfillmentStates

property
boolean
default:
true

Prevents transition to the Shipped, PartiallyShipped, Delivered & PartiallyDelivered states unless there are corresponding Fulfillments in the correct states to allow this. E.g. Shipped only if all items in the Order are part of a Fulfillment which itself is in the Shipped state.

configureDefaultOrderProcess

Used to configure a customized instance of the default OrderProcess that ships with Vendure. Using this function allows you to turn off certain checks and constraints that are enabled by default.

import { configureDefaultOrderProcess, VendureConfig } from '@vendure/core';

const myCustomOrderProcess = configureDefaultOrderProcess({
// Disable the constraint that requires
// Orders to have a shipping method assigned
// before payment.
arrangingPaymentRequiresShipping: false,
});

export const config: VendureConfig = {
orderOptions: {
process: [myCustomOrderProcess],
},
};

The DefaultOrderProcessOptions type defines all available options. If you require even more customization, you can create your own implementation of the OrderProcess interface.

Signature
function configureDefaultOrderProcess(options: DefaultOrderProcessOptions): void

Parameters

options

defaultOrderProcess

This is the built-in OrderProcess that ships with Vendure. A customized version of this process can be created using the configureDefaultOrderProcess function, which allows you to pass in an object to enable/disable certain checks.

OrderStates

An interface to extend the OrderState type.

Signature
interface OrderStates {

}

OrderState

These are the default states of the Order process. They can be augmented and modified by using the OrderOptions process property, and by default the defaultOrderProcess will add the states

  • ArrangingPayment
  • PaymentAuthorized
  • PaymentSettled
  • PartiallyShipped
  • Shipped
  • PartiallyDelivered
  • Delivered
  • Modifying
  • ArrangingAdditionalPayment
Signature
type OrderState = | 'Created'
| 'Draft'
| 'AddingItems'
| 'Cancelled'

OrderTransitionData

This is the object passed to the OrderProcess state transition hooks.

Signature
interface OrderTransitionData {
ctx: RequestContext;
order: Order;
}
