Example Code

Explanation

Define Callback Functions:

handleUpdateSuccess: This function is called when the checkout is successfully updated. It logs the response data to the console and shows an alert indicating that the checkout has been updated.

handleUpdateError: This function is called if there is an error during the checkout update. It logs the error status and data to the console and displays an alert with an error message.

Define Checkout Data:

updatedCheckoutData: This object contains the updated details for the checkout session, including any new or modified information such as shipping address and cart items.

Call the _updateCheckout Method:

The _updateCheckout method is invoked with the updatedCheckoutData object, along with the handleUpdateSuccess and handleUpdateError callback functions. This initiates a request to update the checkout session with the provided data.

Detailed Flow

Prepare Data:

Construct the updatedCheckoutData object with the necessary updates to the checkout session, such as shipping address or cart modifications.

Send Update Request:

The method sends a POST request to the /api/checkout/update/{checkoutToken} endpoint with the updatedCheckoutData object in the request body. The checkoutToken is retrieved from localStorage.

Handle Response:

On Success: The handleUpdateSuccess callback function is invoked with the response data, allowing you to update the UI or perform further actions based on the successful update.

On Error: The handleUpdateError callback function is invoked with the error status and data, allowing you to handle the error appropriately, such as by showing an error message to the user.

Notes

Token Management: Ensure that localStorage.checkoutToken is correctly managed and not expired.

Data Validation: Verify that the updatedCheckoutData contains all necessary fields and is formatted correctly before making the API request.

Error Handling: Implement robust error handling to improve user experience and ensure that users are informed of any issues that occur during the update process.
