shopify

Hi I'm using the Shopify gem in my Shopify app and I'm looking for suggestions on how to handle the API connection to Shopify. I'm using webhooks and delayed_jobs so I need a way to open the connection outside of the controller. At the moment I added this method to my Shop model: def connect_to_store session = ShopifyAPI::Session.new(self.url, self.access_token) session.valid? ShopifyAPI::Base.activate_session(session) end So I can open the connection very easily, for example: Shop.find(1).connect_to_store ShopifyAPI::Shop.current.name The problem is that, inside my Product module, I need the

I need to implement our own custom product search in Shopify, but I have been unable to find out how exactly to do this. I am not talking about the template which shows the search result, but we need to write custom code to decide exactly which products should be shown on the search page, and their order. I can see there are a lot of apps out there which provides a custom search result/order so I guess it is possible to do, I was just unable to find any documentation about it. I already have all the data needed to produce the desired search result, so my only problem is how to integrate with
