The following are functions that are available for use within the Custom Shipping Code functionality available for Foxy stores.

• Chainable Functions: The javascript API is designed to be chainable - allowing you to string different function calls together to make more complex calls in a single line.
• Node.js: Note that we do update versions of Node regularly. If you have questions about the specific version we're using at a certain point in time, just ask. But when you update your code, be aware that updating your code will trigger a re-deploy behind the scenes, which may use a newer version of Node than your code previously used.

Add an additional shipping option

Parameters:

• id (Int) - The unique ID of the shipping rate, to a maximum of 11 digits
• price (Float) - The price, to 2 decimal places
• carrier (String) - The carrier name
• service_name (String) - The service name

Returns: Rates - The current rates object with the new rate included

Errors:

• A non-integer is passed for the id
• A non-float is passed for the price
• Both the carrier and service_name parameters are missing
• A rate with the specified id already exists

Examples:

• rates.add(10001, 15.95, 'FoxyPost', 'Standard');
• rates.add(10002, 40, '', 'Express Shipping');

Notes:

• The id needs to be at least 10000. If you pass an id less than that, it will be increased by 10000 - if an id of 15 is passed, the resulting ID will be 10015.
• At least the method or service_name needs to be included, but including both is optional.
• Any handling fees or flat rates from the categories present in the cart are not automatically added onto the specified price. To add those to your rates, see addHandling(), addFlatRate() and addHandlingAndFlatRate().

Filters the current rates object using the provided selector

Parameters:

• selector (Number, String or Array) - Can be the ID of a rate, a string containing the method and/or the service name (or a subset of) or an array of ID's.

Returns: Rates - A new rates object, filtered based on the provided selector

Examples:

• rates.filter(1); - Filter to the rate with an ID of 1
• rates.filter('FedEx'); - Filter to any rate with a method of “FedEx”
• rates.filter('Overnight'); - Filter to any rate with the text “Overnight” present
• rates.filter('USPS Ground'); - Filter to any “USPS” rates with a method containing “Ground”
• rates.filter([1,2,5,7]); - Filter to rates with an ID of 1,2,5 and 7

Notes:

• Strings are case-insensitive when matching

Set the rates in the current object to be hidden, preventing them from returning to the customer

Returns: Rates - The current rates object

Examples:

• rates.hide(); - Hide all rates
• rates.filter("express").hide(); - Hide all rates with “express” in the name

Notes:

• Hidden rates are still present to work with within the code (eg. still included if you filter for them later), but won't be included when returned to the customer if still hidden

Set the rates in the current object to be shown, ensuring they're returned to the customer

Returns: Rates - The current rates object

Examples:

• rates.show(); - Show all rates
• rates.filter("express").show(); - Show all rates with “express” in the name

Checks if rates exist in the current rates object, or if a given selector is present if one is passed

Returns: Boolean - true or false depending if any matching rates are found

Parameters:

• selector (Number, String or Array) [optional] - Can be the ID of a rate, a string containing the carrier and/or the service name (or a subset of) or an array of ID's.

Examples:

• rates.exists(); - will return true if there are any rates in the current object
• rates.exists('UPS'); - will return true if there are any rates from UPS
• rates.exists([1,2,5]); - will return true if at least a rate exists with an ID of either 1, 2 or 5

Notes:

• If passing an array of ID's, the match will return true if only one of the rates are present

Returns: Int - The number of rates in the current rates object

Examples:

• rates.count();

Get the current rate's ID

Returns: Int - The ID of the current rate

Examples:

Notes:

• If executed on a rates object with multiple rates, the ID of the first rate is returned

Set the current rate's ID

Parameters:

• value (Int) - the new ID for the rate

Returns: Rates or Rate - Either the individual rate or current rates object

Errors:

• Setting the ID on a rates object with multiple rates

Examples:

• rates.filter(10002).id(10003); - Updates the rate with an ID of 10002 to now have an ID of 10003

Note:

• It's not possible to change the ID of a rate from one of our native integrations, including USPS, FedEx or UPS.
• The id needs to be at least 10000. If you pass an id less than that, it will be increased by 10000 - if an id of 15 is passed, the resulting ID will be 10015.

Get the current rate's price

Returns: Float - The price of the current rate

Parameters:

• modifier String or Number - Can either be a number (which sets the price to match) or a string containing the operator and a number eg '+20' , '-10' , '*2' , '/2.5' , '=15'. You can also append the string with a % sign to make the operation based on a percentage, eg '+20%' - add 20%, '-20%' - less 20%, '/20%' - divide by 20%, '*20%' - multiply by 20%.

Returns: Rates or Rate - Either the individual rate or current rates object

Examples:

• rates.filter(1).price(5); - Will set rate with an ID of 1 to be $5
• rates.price('*2'); - Will set all rates to double their current price
• rates.filter('FedEx').price('+5'); - Will set all rates for FedEx to be $5 more than what they returned as
