Shopify Migration Scripts

This project is still under active development

Overview

The scripts will migrate over the following from your Shopify store, to your Swell store:

Products
Variants
Orders
Customers

Depending on the configuration of your store, you might need to modify the scripts to suit your requirements.

Swell also has native import functionality for Products and Customers, and these can be imported by CSV or JSON. To import Products or Customers, click import when viewing products or customers from the Swell dashboard.

Setup Instructions

Clone the repo
npm install
Create a Shopify Private App
- Instructions: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/apps/app-types/custom-apps

Create a .env file, use the .env.template file to create the following variables

SWELL_API_KEY={secret_key}
SWELL_STORE_ID=
SHOPIFY_HOST={store_name}.myshopify.com
SHOPIFY_API_VERSION=
SHOPIFY_API_KEY=
SHOPIFY_PASSWORD={shppa_...}

Run scripts with the following command from the root directory: npm run customers

Pass in the file names to run the different scripts. The correct order should be:
1. npm run customers
2. npm run products
3. npm run orders

Disclaimers

Currently, Shopify limits requests to 250 records. If you need to migrate over more records, you will need to make recursive or paginated calls for each of the scripts

Products

In order to switch over the image hosting from Shopify to Swell, you'll have to export the products and re-import them from your Swell store.
1. Select All products from your Swell dashboard
2. Select the checkboxes for the items you want to export
3. Click export > CSV > Export
4. Click import > Select the exported CSV > Ensure Overwrite existing products is selected > Upload. This will ensure your product images are hosted on Swell when you deactivate your Shopify store.

Orders

Ensure that your orders are unarchived before exporting.

Customers

Due to the limitations of Shopify's API, passwords cannot be migrated over.
Credit card information is not transfered over with this script.
