How to use

First we will get some of the products from shopify

from shopify_sync.models import Product
products = Product.objects.sync_all(query="For bar")

sync_all passes all kwargs to the shopify_resource.find so we can then sync only the items that shopify returns from that search. Now we have all of the products stored locally. Now to update from Django

product = Product.objects.first()
product.title = "New Bar Foo"
product.save(push=True)

The save method on the objects also accepts the optional argument push which will push the updated model that is locally to Shopify. Now if a product was edited on shopify through some means other than this Django app, we will not have the current updated model. For this we need to sync

changed_product.sync()

the changed_product will get a local copy of the shopify_resource and then do a .reload() on it so that we make a request to shopify. Then we sync that back with our database.
