Customer normalizer
The normalizeCustomer function is used to map a BigCommerce Customer into the unified SfCustomer data model.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
customer | Customer | BigCommerce Customer |
Extending
The SfCustomer model is returned from Unified Methods such as RegisterCustomer, LoginCustomer and GetCustomer. If the SfCustomer structure doesn't contain the information you need for your Storefront, you can extend its logic using the defineNormalizers function. The following example demonstrates how to extend SfCustomer with a company field.
import { normalizers as normalizersBC, defineNormalizers } from "@vsf-enterprise/unified-api-bigcommerce";
const normalizers = defineNormalizers<typeof normalizersBC>()({
...normalizersBC,
normalizeCustomer: (customer) => ({
...normalizersBC.normalizeCustomer(customer),
company: customer.company,
}),
});

export const normalizeCustomer = defineNormalizer.normalizeCustomer((user) => {
if (!user.id) {
throw new Error("User id is required");
}
return {
id: user.id.toString(),
firstName: user.first_name,
lastName: user.last_name,
email: user.email,
};
});
