Shopify JavaScript Standards

JavaScript file structure, custom elements, and coding standards for Shopify theme development.

When to Use

• Writing JavaScript for Shopify theme sections
• Creating interactive components
• Setting up JavaScript file structure
• Using custom HTML elements

File Structure

Separate JavaScript Files

• JavaScript must live in a separate file in the assets/ directory
• Include it in the section using the asset_url filter

Including JavaScript in Sections

<script src="{{ 'section-logic.js' | asset_url }}" defer="defer"></script>

Always use defer to ensure scripts load after HTML parsing.

File Naming

Match JavaScript file names to section names:

sections/
  └── product-quick-view.liquid

assets/
  └── product-quick-view.js

JavaScript Rules

Variable Declarations

• Use only const and let
• Never use var
• Avoid global scope pollution

Example

// Good
const productId = document.querySelector('[data-product-id]').dataset.productId;
let isOpen = false;

// Bad
var productId = ...; // Never use var
window.myVariable = ...; // Avoid global pollution

Scope Management

Keep variables scoped to their usage:

// Good - scoped within function
function initProductCard() {
  const card = document.querySelector('.product-card');
  const button = card.querySelector('.product-card__button');
  // ...
}

// Bad - global variables
const card = document.querySelector('.product-card'); // Global scope

Custom Elements

Use Custom HTML Elements

Use custom HTML elements to encapsulate JavaScript logic and create reusable components.

Custom Element Structure

class ProductQuickView extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.init();
  }

  init() {
    this.button = this.querySelector('[data-trigger]');
    this.modal = this.querySelector('[data-modal]');
    this.closeButton = this.querySelector('[data-close]');

    this.button?.addEventListener('click', () => this.open());
    this.closeButton?.addEventListener('click', () => this.close());
  }

  open() {
    this.modal?.classList.add('is-open');
  }

  close() {
    this.modal?.classList.remove('is-open');
  }
}

customElements.define('product-quick-view', ProductQuickView);

Using Custom Elements in Liquid

<product-quick-view data-product-id="{{ product.id }}">
  <button data-trigger>Quick View</button>
  <div data-modal class="modal">
    <button data-close>Close</button>
    <!-- Modal content -->
  </div>
</product-quick-view>

Custom Element Benefits

• Encapsulation - logic is self-contained
• Reusability - use anywhere in the theme
• Lifecycle hooks - connectedCallback, disconnectedCallback
• Data attributes - pass data via data-* attributes

Lifecycle Hooks

class MyComponent extends HTMLElement {
  connectedCallback() {
    // Element added to DOM
    this.init();
  }

  disconnectedCallback() {
    // Element removed from DOM
    this.cleanup();
  }

  init() {
    // Setup logic
  }

  cleanup() {
    // Cleanup logic (remove event listeners, etc.)
  }
}

Data Attributes

Passing Data to JavaScript

• Use custom HTML tags when appropriate
• Pass dynamic data via data-* attributes
• Access data via dataset property

Example

<product-card
  data-product-id="{{ product.id }}"
  data-product-handle="{{ product.handle }}"
  data-variant-id="{{ product.selected_or_first_available_variant.id }}">
  <!-- Content -->
</product-card>

class ProductCard extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.productId = this.dataset.productId;
    this.productHandle = this.dataset.productHandle;
    this.variantId = this.dataset.variantId;
  }
}

Observers

Use Observers Only When Explicitly Requested

Use observers (IntersectionObserver, MutationObserver, etc.) only if explicitly requested by the user.

IntersectionObserver Example

// Only use if explicitly needed
class LazyImage extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries) => {
      entries.forEach(entry => {
        if (entry.isIntersecting) {
          this.loadImage();
          this.observer.unobserve(this);
        }
      });
    });
  }

  connectedCallback() {
    this.observer.observe(this);
  }

  loadImage() {
    const img = this.querySelector('img');
    img.src = img.dataset.src;
  }
}

Best Practices

Event Handling

class ProductForm extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.form = this.querySelector('form');
    this.form?.addEventListener('submit', this.handleSubmit.bind(this));
  }

  handleSubmit(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    // Handle form submission
  }

  disconnectedCallback() {
    // Clean up event listeners
    this.form?.removeEventListener('submit', this.handleSubmit);
  }
}

Error Handling

class ProductCard extends HTMLElement {
  init() {
    try {
      const button = this.querySelector('[data-add-to-cart]');
      if (!button) {
        console.warn('Add to cart button not found');
        return;
      }
      button.addEventListener('click', this.handleAddToCart.bind(this));
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error initializing product card:', error);
    }
  }
}

Complete Example

Section File

{{ 'product-card.css' | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}

<product-card
  data-product-id="{{ product.id }}"
  data-product-handle="{{ product.handle }}">
  <div class="product-card">
    {{ image | image_tag: widths: '360, 720, 1080', loading: 'lazy' }}
    <h3>{{ product.title }}</h3>
    <button data-add-to-cart>Add to Cart</button>
  </div>
</product-card>

<script src="{{ 'product-card.js' | asset_url }}" defer="defer"></script>

JavaScript File

class ProductCard extends HTMLElement {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.productId = this.dataset.productId;
    this.init();
  }

  init() {
    const button = this.querySelector('[data-add-to-cart]');
    button?.addEventListener('click', () => this.addToCart());
  }

  async addToCart() {
    try {
      const response = await fetch('/cart/add.js', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
        body: JSON.stringify({
          id: this.productId,
          quantity: 1
        })
      });
      // Handle response
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error adding to cart:', error);
    }
  }
}

customElements.define('product-card', ProductCard);

Instructions

1. Separate JS files - one file per section in assets/ directory
2. Use defer when including scripts
3. Use const and let - never var
4. Use custom elements to encapsulate logic
5. **Pass data via data-* attributes**
6. Avoid global scope pollution
7. Use observers only when explicitly requested
8. Clean up event listeners in disconnectedCallback
