Product Primary Collection

Official documentation here

To construct breadcrumbs and URL's it's useful to have a primary collection for each product, in case a product is part of multiple collections. This plugin extends Vendure's Product graphql type, adding a primaryCollection field that points to the primary collection of a product.

Primary collections can be selected in the Admin UI's product detail view.

This Plugin also exports PrimaryCollectionHelperService which can be used to assign primaryCollection's to products without existing values by running PrimaryCollectionHelperService.setPrimaryCollectionForAllProducts.
