The
store
API is mostly events based. As a user of this plugin, you will have to register listeners to changes happening to the products you register.The core of the listening mechanism is the
when()
method. It allows you to be notified of changes to one or a set of products using a query mechanism:store.when("product").updated(refreshScreen);
store.when("full version").owned(unlockApp);
store.when("subscription").approved(serverCheck);
store.when("downloadable content").downloaded(showContent);
etc.
The
updated
event is fired whenever one of the fields of a product is changed (its owned
status for instance).This event provides a generic way to track the status of the purchases, to unlock features and to refresh the views accordingly.
This section describes some of the main functions used in the demo. For complete API references, please refer to the repository.
The
verbosity
property defines how much the code in the store.js
file writes to the console. Available values:store.QUIET
or0

store.verbosity
Example
// Enable maximum logging level
store.verbosity = store.DEBUG;
Register a product to the store.
store.register(product);
Parameter
Name | Type | Description |
product | JSON Object | Product information |
Example
store.register({
id: 'consumable1', // id without package name!
alias: 'Extra Life',
type: store.CONSUMABLE
});
Load the product data from the servers and restore whatever has already been purchased by the user.
store.refresh();
Example
// ...
// register products and events handlers here
// ...
//
// then and only then, call refresh.
store.refresh();
Retrieve a product by its
id
or alias
.store.get(id/alias)
Name | Type | Description |
id | String | Product ID |
alias | String | Product name |
Example
var product = store.get("consumable1");
Register a callback for a product related event. For more details about this api, please refer to here.
store.when(query, event, callback)
Return Value
Promise
Example
store.when("subscription1", "approved", function(product) {
console.log("Subscription approved!");
});
Register an error handler.
store.error(callback);
Example
store.error(function(e){
console.log("ERROR " + e.code + ": " + e.message);
});
Register the callback to be called when the store is ready to be used.
If the store is already ready, callback is executed immediately.
store.ready()
without arguments will return the ready
status.store.ready(callback)
Example
store.ready(function() {
console.log("Store is ready");
});
