Task: PRD-618 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Outline:

We need to make a new shopify plugin for Netcomm. This plugin will be copy of their old plugin. Here are the feature list of old plugins:

eKomi Official Shopify Plugin for NetComm

This plugin will be made with new Shopify Designs (please check eKomi Plugins for reference ) .

Overview:

The plugin will run from the Plugin Dashboard system and serve Shopify as an API.
Research is required to implement the new generation of Shopify plugin which is an Embedded App.

The embedded app is served within the Shopify Admin Dashboard.
The app will provide installation and uninstallation functionality.
The main requirement within the app is to capture Netcomm and or eKomi configuration settings and persist that to a DB.

Affected Resources:

Netcomm and eKomi plugins. Shopify is changing and it will affect our future plugins.
Plugin Dashboard DB schema will be changed and a new table introduced for the plugin config settings.
Plugin Dashboard environment variables will have new variables added to their respective config files: list file changes outside of Plugin. System files.
