overwolf.utils.openStore is not working

Issues - Platform and API
#1

Issue Description:
I’ve tested the new API called overwolf.utils.openStore and it doesn’t work as expected.
by calling (from my app):

overwolf.utils.openStore({
    page:overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.ReviewsPage
  });

I expect to land @ my app’s review page.
instead, I get this screen:

you can see that there’s an error, black on dark background.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. OW store window is closed.
  2. open an app
  3. input the following command in the app’s devtools:
overwolf.utils.openStore({
    page:overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.ReviewsPage
  });
  1. Bug Reproduced

Overwolf Client Version: 0.153.0.13

Do you currently have a workaround? partially. we’re using the old API to get to my app’s page but it doesn’t support navigation to reviews page

I have it implemented as

		// Open App Store on Review click
		$(document).on('click', '#review_the_app', function(e){
			e.preventDefault();
			overwolf.utils.openStore({
				page:overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.ReviewsPage,
				uid:"decddmhlpdgkcihhfbahfkafojbjckglidmilgoh"
			});
		});

And upon click in version 0.149 I’m just brought to the app store main landing page.
Upon click in version 0.153 I get the same error as @shir.brass:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://storeclient.overwolf.com:8080/decddmhlpdgkcihhfbahfkafojbjckglidmilgoh/reviews

So yeah, it’s not working correctly at the moment, for sure.

The ReviewsPage enum was introduced in Overwolf version 0.153.
The bug happens when the store is closed (if it is already opened, it will work).

A fix will be added for the upcoming version.

on my side, with 0.153, first time went to app page, second time to reviews page.

Yeah it’s a bug, we’ll fix it for the next iteration, Like Tom said before it only happens when the store is closed.

You can use this function as a workaround until we fix it in the next iteration.

const qaWorkaround = () => {
  overwolf.utils.openStore({
    page: overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.LoginPage
  });

  setTimeout(() => {
    overwolf.utils.openStore({
      page: overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.ReviewsPage
    });
  }, 1500);
}

@shir.brass Please check on 0.155. It should be fixed. update me.

@eransharv I have attempted to reproduce the issue and I can confirm that the issue is now resolved.

we’ll fully integrate it from our end once 0.155’s phasing will be sufficient

@eransharv just to confirm: The version 0.155.0.10 that’s currently available to 50% of users, that’s the build that includes this fix, correct?

Yes. If you didn’t get the update and want to get it now - try to relaunch OW. That might give you the updated version (not sure about that, but worth trying). OR - use the Developers channel…

#12

With version 0.156.0.19 this seems to be broken somewhat again.

overwolf.utils.openStore({
	page: overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.ReviewsPage
});

basically just does the same as

overwolf.utils.openStore({
	page: overwolf.utils.enums.eStorePage.OneAppPage
});

It does not open the Reviews tab.

The workaround with setTimeout also no longer works.

@eransharv Could you change the status from done to in-progress ?

@Bl0n Actually I’m on 0.156.19 and it’s not reproducible.
Is it reproducuible with your app %100 of the cases?

#16

So me and Heaser worked on this via Discord just now.

It looks like it’s specific to my account, because I have a test-subscription to my app, without the app having a published subscription. This throws an error in the app store which then causes the Reviews-tab from not opening.

When I’m logged out, the function works as intended.

This can be set to done again I think!
