Store search

Store search can be used to find stores near the user. We also provide multiple options to customize store search to fit your specific use case.

Implementation steps

1. importing the script

<script src="https://sdk.mealme.ai/script.js" defer></script>

2. Show popup modal

For example:

mealme.showStoreModal('YOUR_NAME', {});

Optional: passing location

If you want to show results for a specific location, you can pass address information so the user does not have to enter their address. Example usage:

mealme.showStoreModal('YOUR_NAME', {
            address: {
              street_num: '10',
              street_name: 'Example street',
              city: 'San francisco',
              state: 'CA',
              country: 'US',
              zipcode: '94000',
            },
            latitude: 37.7,
            longitude: 122.4,
          });

Additional optional customizations

The following optional query parameters are available to adjust the functionality of the SDK:

  • searchQuery - a default query for the search, pass for example searchQuery=subway for the initial search to be for subway
  • storeType- Pass either restaurant or grocery, don't include to have results with both
  • userId- Use your own identifier for userId if you want an order to be related to a certain user or group
  • hideSearchbarpassing true will hide the search field
  • isPickup - default value of the pickup toggle, true means it's a pickup order, false means it's a delivery order
  • hidePickupToggle - passing true will hide the pickup toggle
  • isOpen - default value of the open toggle, true means searching for only open stores, false means to search for all stores
  • searchRadius- Normally we gradually increase the radius until we find enough stores, pass if you want to override this and just do one specific search radius, is capped at 10 miles
  • hideOpenToggle - passing true will hide the open toggle
  • title- optional title that displays at the top of the page
  • error- If passed, an error snackbar will appear with this error when the page loads
  • storeIds- Comma separated store_id's, this will show only these stores in the interface and hide other options, a maximum of is 50 allowed.
  • desiredTime- If scheduled ordering is available, we will select the timeslot closest to this timestamp. Pass as unix time, for example: 1670000000
  • primaryColor - Changes the color theme of the SDK from the default orange color. Pass as hex without the #, for example &primaryColor=777777
  • disableCheckoutRedirect- Passing true prevents the tracking site from being opened in a new browser tab after checkout is completed

Example using customizations:
mealme.showStoreModal('YOUR_NAME', {
	title: 'Stores near you',
		hideOpenToggle: true,
		hidePickupToggle: true,
  });

Closing the modal popup

If you want to programmatically close the modal for another reason you can use:

window.mealme.closeModal()

Capturing events

We fire events that you can catch if you want to read the data.

The events fired from the store-search checkout flow are the following:

  • Store select
  • Checkout success
  • Checkout failure

If you want to capture events while having the SDK in an App, please follow these instructions, instead of the web examples given below.

When user selects a store

Code for listening to store click event:

<script>
  window.onmessage = (event) => {
    if (event.data.id === "mealme-store-select") {
      // Your code using event.data
    }
  };
</script>

Example content of event.data:
