Release FastStore Release Notes - March 2022 · vtex/faststore

FastStore UI

🎉 New Dropdown molecule - #1178
Use the Dropdown component as an options menu or a dropdown select.

🐛 Fixed setSession function type - #1172
Now the ContextValue of the setSession function receives a session: Partial<Session> argument. With the fix, it's possible to pass partial information of a session. For example:

const { setSession } = useSession()
setSession({ postalCode: 'foo' })

✨ Improve the performance of useStorage hook - #1186
The setTimeout function was created to prevent the creation of tasks that take longer than 50ms to process. The function improves the performance of the useStorage hook by wrapping two of its tasks: the async promise and the set state of an item.
✨ Add setFacets function to the search context - #1189
The setFacets function sets all selected facets without any processing, allowing full control of the selected facets.

🐛 Added missing totalCount field to pageInfo in allCollections query - #1173
Now the resolver for the allCollections query returns the number of valid collections in the store when a user asks for pageInfo.totalCount field.
🎉 New Session query - #1176
The Session query returns only the channel and country values. The addition of this query enables VTEX regionalization, which requires the regionId located within the channel.
🎉 Add local server and GraphQL tests - #1179
The @faststore/api package now comes with an Express GraphQL Server setup allowing you to test the API without having to link the package to a store.
✨ hideUnavaibleitems parameter in the search API - #1180
The Search API now has a parameter called hideUnavailableItems. This parameter either hides (true) or displays (false) an out-of-stock product.
🐛 Removed frontend computation to the backend - #1184
Offers are now sorted according to the order of the offers array.
✨ Returning null as profile - #1190
Now the API returns null for the person query when executed by an anonymous user, avoiding a mismatch with the default user session values, preventing the session of the anonymous user from being reset, and lowering the Total Blocking Time (TBT) metric.
