• Claude Desktop application

Installation

Standard Installation

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/mourigenta/shopify-mcp-server.git
cd shopify-mcp-server

# 2. Set up environment with network resilience
./setup_test_env.sh
# Or with custom options:
# INSTALL_TIMEOUT=300 INSTALL_RETRY=5 ./setup_test_env.sh

# 3. Configure your Shopify credentials
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials

Installation in Restricted Networks

# For environments with network restrictions:

# 1. Behind a proxy
export PIP_PROXY=http://your-proxy:port
./setup_test_env.sh

# 2. Limited network connectivity
INSTALL_TIMEOUT=300 INSTALL_RETRY=10 ./setup_test_env.sh

# 3. Offline installation
# First, download packages on a connected machine:
pip download -r requirements.txt -d vendor/
# Then on the target machine:
OFFLINE_MODE=1 ./setup_test_env.sh

# 4. Minimal installation (core features only)
INSTALL_OPTIONAL=0 INSTALL_DEV=0 ./setup_test_env.sh

Dependency Installation Options

# Core dependencies only (minimal functionality)
pip install -r requirements-base.txt

# Extended dependencies (recommended)
pip install -r requirements-extended.txt

# Full installation (all features)
pip install -r requirements.txt

Configuration

Configure your Shopify credentials in .env:

SHOPIFY_SHOP_NAME=your-shop-name
SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token
SHOPIFY_API_VERSION=2024-01

See Environment Setup Guide for detailed instructions.

🛠️ Available Tools

REST API Tools

• get_orders_summary: Order statistics and revenue
• get_sales_analytics: Sales trends and analytics
• get_product_performance: Top performing products

GraphQL API Tools

• get_shop_info_graphql: Comprehensive shop information
• get_products_graphql: Efficient product data fetching
• get_inventory_levels_graphql: Location-aware inventory tracking

When to Use Which?

Use GraphQL for:

• Complex queries with related data
• Mobile apps with bandwidth constraints
• Selective field fetching

Use REST for:

• Simple CRUD operations
• Cached content
• Legacy integrations

See GraphQL vs REST Guide for detailed comparisons.

🧪 Testing

Run the comprehensive test suite:

# Run all tests with automatic dependency detection
python run_adaptive_tests.py

# Run with coverage report
./run_tests.sh --coverage

# Run specific test file
python -m pytest test_graphql_client.py

# Check environment and dependencies
python test_imports.py

🔧 Troubleshooting

Network Issues

If you encounter dependency installation failures:

1. Check proxy settings: export PIP_PROXY=http://proxy:port
2. Increase timeout: INSTALL_TIMEOUT=300 ./setup_test_env.sh
3. Use offline mode: See docs/NETWORK_TROUBLESHOOTING.md
4. Disable retries: INSTALL_RETRY_DISABLED=1 ./setup_test_env.sh

Common Issues

• Import errors: Run python test_imports.py for specific instructions
• SSL errors: Update certificates or use trusted sources
• Timeout errors: Increase INSTALL_TIMEOUT environment variable

🐳 Docker Support

Deploy with Docker:

# Build and run
docker-compose up

# Production deployment
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up
