Communication with the website

How does Mealz communicate with my website ?

To make communication between Mealz and your website easier, we decided to gather all methods and variables you might need in one interface.

The object mealz is the interface you use to configure Mealz on the client, customize behavior, and access data you may need from your website.

When you fetch Mealz components from the SSR API (or GET /v3/core), the scripts in the response load and initialize window.mealz from the headers and parameters you passed. You then call window.mealz to access methods and variables.

The methods and variables in window.mealz are grouped in thematic categories, like window.mealz.user or window.mealz.recipes for example. See window.mealz for more details on the content of each category.
