Implementation Reference
- src/services/printify-shops.ts:120-168 (handler)The core handler function `switchPrintifyShop` that performs shop validation, switches the current shop using the Printify client, and formats the response.export async function switchPrintifyShop(printifyClient: PrintifyAPI, shopId: string) { try { // Validate client is initialized if (!printifyClient) { throw new Error('Printify API client is not initialized. The PRINTIFY_API_KEY environment variable may not be set.'); } // Get shops and find the requested shop const shops = await printifyClient.getShops(); const shop = shops.find((s: any) => s.id.toString() === shopId); if (!shop) { throw new Error(`Shop with ID ${shopId} not found. Use the list-shops tool to see available shops.`); } // Switch to the requested shop printifyClient.setShopId(shopId); return { success: true, shop, response: { content: [{ type: "text", text: `Switched to shop: ${shop.title} (ID: ${shop.id}, Channel: ${shop.sales_channel})` }] } }; } catch (error: any) { console.error('Error switching Printify shop:', error); return { success: false, error, errorResponse: formatErrorResponse( error, 'Switch Printify Shop', { ShopId: shopId }, [ 'Check that the shop ID is valid', 'Use the list-shops tool to see available shops', 'Ensure your Printify account is properly connected' ] ) }; } }
