JavaScript File Structure
Action files share the following basic structure:
module.exports = function(context, callback) { // Your custom code here callback(); };
When you code the custom function for an action, you have access to two arguments:
callback
—This argument follows the established JavaScript callback pattern: it takes an error as the first argument (or null if there is no error) and a result as the second argument (if required).
context
—This argument provides the function access to relevant objects and methods that interface with Kibo eCommerce.
Context: HTTP
The following methods and objects are available to this action through the use of the context
argument.
REST API Operation
This action corresponds to the api/commerce/customer/addAccountAndLogin operation.
HTTP Request
POST api/commerce/customer/accounts/Add-Account-And-Login?responseFields={responseFields}
Request Body
Use context.request.body
to read/write the HTTP request body using this action.
Response Body
Use context.response.body
to write the HTTP response body using this action.
Delegated Authorization
The API operation that this action interacts with uses delegated authorization to verify that the caller has access to the requested API resource. If you use context.response.end() to exit the function early, you must manually specify the authorization of the caller to avoid an authorization error. To specify that the caller is authorized, use context.exec.setAuthorized(true). To specify the caller is not authorized, use context.exec.setAuthorized(false).
