Since we will be using the

`updateLocation`
mutation to update location->openingSchdule, we can write a custom UI Component that can display the opening schedule on the UI to allow users to update the opening schedule details.

Here is the list of actions to implement the feature:

  • Determine if it is feasible via web app and GraphQL.
  • Check and add new permissions for the user.
  • Add a reference route in setting:
    `fc.mystique.manifest.store`
  • Create a new manifest:
    `fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.storelocation`
    to view and enable user mutation action
  • Create an
    `OpeningSchedule`
    Component that maps to the new manifest


By looking at the GraphQL docs, updateLocation mutation can update the openingSchedule.

Next, I knew we need

`LOCATION_VIEW`
,
`LOCATION_UPDATE`
,
`OPENINGSCHEDULE_VIEW`
and
`OPENINGSCHEDULE_UPDATE`
permissions so I create a new Role:

1POST {{fluentApiHost}}/graphql

5mutation createStoreRole {
6    createRole (
7        input: {
8            name: "STORE_LOCATION_HOUR",
9            permissions: [
10                { name: "LOCATION_VIEW" },
11                { name: "LOCATION_UPDATE" },
12                { name: "OPENINGSCHEDULE_VIEW" },
13                { name: "OPENINGSCHEDULE_UPDATE" }
14            ]
15        }
16    ) {
17        id
18        name
19    }
20}

Once the new role is created, assign the new role to my store manager by using

`updateUser`
mutation:

Next, add the manifest reference link that you are about to create in the store setting:

`fc.mystique.manifest.store`

Name: fc.mystique.manifest.store.fragment.storelocation - blank page

Description:

Note:

I have added             

`"roles": [`

`                "STORE_LOCATION_HOUR"`

`            ],`

In the route section, only users who have the STORE_LOCATION_HOUR can see this page.

In the actions -> primary section,  I have included an override, which will call the OpeningSchedule component (which we will create in the next step).


Open fluent STORE and navigate to the location detail screen:

No alt provided

The default update location mutation does provide a high-level UI for updating the opening schedule. However, I want more control over the UI field display, so I will write a custom component.

No alt provided


Open up the component SDK and create a new file:

`OpeningSchedule.tsx`
:
