modifyViewJsonLd( view_id, callback ) → {void}
-
Description
Lets you modify JSON-LD data embedded in the
<head>
element of a SuiteCommerce product details page. JSON-LD data on SuiteCommerce websites adheres to the structured data schemas, as specified on https://schema.org/Product.If your extension modifies a view or adds a child view on the product details page, you can use
modifyViewJsonLd()
to update the related JSON-LD. For example, if you add a child view that displays additional product information, you can update the JSON-LD to ensure the page and its metadata are consistent.In general, the embedded JSON-LD data should be consistent with the content in the view. SuiteCommerce creates JSON-LD data when a view is rendered. For this reason, you need to pass in a view ID to
modifyViewJsonLd()
when modifying JSON-LD data.Note: To use this method, JSON-LD must be selected as the markup type on the SuiteCommerce Configuration page in the NetSuite account. See Structured Data Markup in the NetSuite Help Center for more information.
In the following example, we create an instance of the Layout component and use
modifyViewJsonLd()
to add a property to the JSON-LD object. We pass in 'ProductDetails.Full.View' as the view ID and a function that returns a Promise. The_.extend
function enables you to copy an object and add new properties to it.var layout = container.getComponent('Layout'); layout.modifyViewJsonLd('ProductDetails.Full.View', function(json) { json = _.extend(json, { manufacturer: 'NetSuite Industrial' }); return jQuery.Deferred().resolve(json); });
Parameters
Name Type Description view_id
string The identifier of the view that will update the JSON-LD data. For example, if you use the Layout component to modify the ProductDetails.Full.View view in the base theme template, pass in "ProductDetails.Full.View" as the
view_id
.callback
function A function that modifies the JSON-LD data. It must return a Promise that resolves with an object.

getItemInfo() → {ItemInfo}
-
Description
Gets information about the item in the current product details page (PDP), which may include details such as the item quantity, shipping address, or fulfillment choice. Information may also include data from custom fields. The actual values returned will depend on how the item is configured in NetSuite. This method only works if the current view is a PDP.
The following example shows how to use this method and what a simplified version of the object returned might look like.
var pdp = container.getComponent("PDP"); var iteminfo = pdp.getItemInfo(); // Example of the object returned from getItemInfo() { "item": { "displayname": "Cotton Shirt", "internalid": 7101, "isinstock": true, "quantityavailable": 8, ... }, "options": [ { "cartOptionId": "custcol14", "itemOptionId": "custitem30", "label": "Size", "values": [ { "internalid": "2", "label": "Small" }, { "internalid": "4", "label": "Medium" } ] } ], "quantity": "1" }
You can use dot notation to access the object properties. Here is an explanation of some of the properties from the example above:
- item.internalid - The internal ID of the item in NetSuite.
- item.isinstock - Indicates if inventory is available.
- options.cartOptionId - The name of an option on the product details page. Use the value of this property as the first argument in
setOption()
when setting an option. - options.values.internalid - The internal ID of the option value. Use the value of this property as the second argument in
setOption()
when setting an option. - options.values.label - The label of the option as it appears on the product details page.
Note: This method may return price information for the item, but it will only return the price for the currently selected options and quantity. Use getPrice() to get additional price information.
Returns
-
getPrice() → {PriceInfo}
-
Description
Gets price information of the item based on the selected options and quantity. Price information includes the current unit price (according to the currently selected options and quantity) and the original unit price. The current price and original price of an item may differ, for example, when a volume discount is applied to the item. Price information is returned with both formatted values (with the currency sign) and unformatted values (without the currency sign).
var pdp = container.getComponent('PDP'); var itemPrice = pdp.getPrice(); // Example of the object returned { price: 35, price_formatted: $35, compare_price: 40, compare_price_formatted: $40 }
Note: You can also use the getItemInfo() method to get price information, however it will only return the current price for the selected options and quantity.
Returns

showMessage( data ) → {string}
-
Description
Shows a message in the notifications area of a SuiteCommerce page. The message is displayed by default in the Notifications placeholder (a DIV element in the base theme template with the custom data attribute
data-view="Notifications"
). You can also choose to display the message in any other placeholder that uses either of the following custom data attributes:data-view
ordata-cms-area
.Messages can be closed by the user, by setting a timeout in the method, or with the closeMessage() method. If you want to use
closeMessage()
, first assign the return value ofshowMessage()
to a variable, and then pass the variable tocloseMessage()
.In the following example, the message is shown and then closed after 5 seconds by setting a timeout.
var layout = container.getComponent('Layout'); if (layout) { var message_shown = false; layout.on('afterShowContent', function() { if (message_shown != false) { layout.showMessage({ message: '', type: 'info', selector: 'Notifications', timeout: 5000 }); message_shown = true; } }); }
In the following example, a message is shown if an invalid VAT number is entered. When the user enters a valid number, the message is closed.
var layout = container.getComponent('Layout'); var message_vat_no; $('#vat_number').blur(function() { var vat_number = $(this).val(); if (message_vat_no !== undefined) { layout.closeMessage(message_vat_no); } // checkVatNumber() returns false if the number entered is invalid. if (!checkVatNumber(vat_number)) { message_vat_no = layout.showMessage({ message: 'You must enter a VAT number to register as a business customer.', type: 'error' }); } });
Parameters
Name Type Description data
Object Data required to display the message.
data

getStockInfo() → {Item.StockInfo}
-
Description
Gets information about the inventory of the item, such as whether the item is in stock, the quantity in stock, and the in-stock and out-of-stock messages. If the item is an inventory item, it returns the available quantity of the item. If the item is a matrix item and subitems are filtered (with getSelectedMatrixChilds()), it returns the sum of the available quantity of all the filtered subitems of the matrix item.
If the Store Pickup feature is enabled in the NetSuite account (see Store Pickup), this method also returns the quantity of inventory available for store pickup at each pickup location. The
stockPerLocation
property of the main object contains an array of objects, each of which contains the ID of the store pickup location and the quantity available.var pdp = container.getComponent('PDP'); var stockinfo = pdp.getStockInfo(); var totalstock = stockinfo.stock; var isinstock = stockinfo.isInStock;
Returns
-
setOption( cart_option_id, value ) → {Deferred.<Boolean>}
-
Description
Sets an option of the current product details page. This method only works if the current view is a PDP.
You need to pass two arguments to this method:
cart_option_id
- The ID of the option you want to set. You can get a list of all possiblecart_option_id
s by calling getItemInfo() first. getItemInfo() returns an object that contains anoptions
property, which contains an array with one object. Each object in the array corresponds to an option that can be set. Use the value of thecartOptionId
property in the object as thecart_option_id
argument in setOption().value
- The value of the option you want to set. You can get a list of all possible optionvalue
s by calling getItemInfo() first. getItemInfo() returns an object that contains anoptions
property, which contains an array with one object. Thevalues
property in the object contains an array of objects, each of which corresponds to an option value. Use the value of theinternalid
property in the object as thevalue
argument in setOption().
In the following example, the size option of an item is set to medium. The size option is represented by the
cart_option_id
with the valuecustcol14
. To set the size to medium, we pass '4', which is theinternalid
for the medium size of the item.var pdp = container.getComponent('PDP'); var iteminfo = pdp.getItemInfo(); pdp.setOption('custcol14', '4');
Parameters
Name Type Description cart_option_id
String The option identifier. You can get a list of option identifiers with getItemInfo().

The
addChildViews
method is flexible, but more complex thanaddChildView
. Use the simpler addChildView() where possible.checkout.addChildViews( checkout.WIZARD_VIEW , { 'Wizard.StepNavigation': { 'CheckoutView': { childViewIndex: 1 , childViewConstructor: function () { return new CheckoutExtensionView({checkout:checkout}); } } } } );

setQuantity( quantity ) → {Deferred}
-
Description
Updates the quantity of the item on the product details page. For example, if the quantity is currently 2 and you call
setQuantity(4)
, the quantity is changed to 4. This method only works if the current view is a PDP.var pdp = container.getComponent('PDP'); var newquantity = 2; pdp.on('beforeQuantityChange', function(event) { if (!_.isNumber(newquantity)) { alert('That is not a valid quantity.'); return false; } });

Returns
-
addChildView( data_view, view_constructor ) → {Void}
-
Description
Adds a child view to a view that already exists in the DOM. Child views can be added to elements that have the
data-view
ordata-cms-area
data attribute. If there are multiple elements in a template that have a data-view attribute value ofview_id
, the child view is added to all elements with that ID. Elements with the data-view attribute act as placeholders in the application. If there is content in the view (which is typically the case), the child view replaces the current content.If you want to add multiple views at the same time, or if you want to add a child view while preserving the current content in the existing view, use addChildViews.
layout.addChildView('Header.View', function () { return new HolidayBannerView({}); });
In the above example, the view
HolidayBannerView
will be added as a child view of an element in any template that has a data-view attribute ofHeader.View
.layout.addChildView('cms:header_banner_top', function () { return new HolidayBannerView({}); });
In the above example, a child view is added to a predefined SMT area called 'header_banner_top'. In the template, the header_banner_top SMT area might be in a div tag in the following way:
<div data-cms-area="header_banner_top"></div>
. Because header_banner_top is a predefined SMT area, thecms:
prefix is used before theview_id
argument.Parameters
Name Type Description data_view
String The view to which the child view will be added.
data_view
is the value of the 'data-view' or 'data-cms-area' data attributes of an element on the page. For example, the header logo view uses the following data-view data attribute:<div data-view="Header.Logo">
.view_constructor
SimpleChildViewConstructor An instance of a view. Use a constructor function to get an instance of a view.
