In the Upgrading the Design Editor topic, you can learn how to upgrade the web-to-print editor.
If you develop an application based on the Customer's Canvas SDK, then you need to update your application when, for example, a new version of the SDK introduces changes to the object model or API.
This topic describes how to update applications when you migrate to the SDK 5.0.0 and 5.31.0.
In Customer's Canvas 5.31, the object model was separated from the DesignAtoms package. To rebuild your application, you must additionally install the new package:
Install-Package Aurigma.DesignAtoms.Model
npm install @aurigma/design-atoms-model --save
After that, replace imports @aurigma/design-atoms/Model/<class>
with @aurigma/design-atoms-model/<class>
in your .ts code.
On the back end, the Math class was moved to the Aurigma.DesignAtoms.Model namespace.
In your .cs code, replace
using Aurigma.DesignAtoms.Common.Math;
with
using Aurigma.DesignAtoms.Model.Math;
For the complete list of deprecated and removed features, you can refer to the breaking-changes-v5.htm. Now, let's see what changes are required in your application.
In Customer's Canvas 4, you could access the Design Editor and the object model through the spEditor object in the eval function. Although you can still use this way, which is not recommended, the code executed in this function is likely to stop working because of changes in the IFrame API. In the current implementation, you have full access to the object model right through the IFrame API.
Let's see in what use cases you could use eval and how you can replace this function now.
Since the userId property has been removed from the object model in version 5, the following call returns undefined
.
let editor = await CustomersCanvas.IframeApi.loadEditor(iframe, product, config); console.log(await editor.eval("spEditor.model.product.userId"));
Instead, you can get the user ID from the runtime configuration as follows:
let editor = await CustomersCanvas.IframeApi.loadEditor(iframe, product, config); console.log(await editor.configuration.getUserId());
Instead of using the spEditor.model:
let productModel = await editor.eval(() => { return spEditor.model.product; });
You can now obtain a product model as follows:
let product = await editor.getProduct(); let productModel = await product.getProductModel();
Note that despite the previous way, the model obtained through getProductModel represents only a snapshop of the product loaded into the editor. If you change the model, you need to apply these changes to the product by using the setProductModel method.
product.setProductModel(newProductModel);
Instead of using the spEditor.productHandler object:
let item = spEditor.productHandler.getAllItems().find(x => x.name === "Logo");
For example, you can find an element by its name as follows:
let item = await product.getItemByName("Logo");
In Customer's Canvas 5, you can set a mockup to a surface only through the IMockupTemplate interface. You can use the setMockup method as follows:
let newProduct = await product.currentSurface.setMockup( { up: "stamp", down: "envelope" }, previewMockups: [{ down: "envelope" }] );
If your application uses the Web API for manipulating state files through the deprecated endpoint:
~/api/users/{userId}/{stateId}
Then you must replace it with the new endpoint:
~/api/users/{userId}/states/{stateId}
