GitHub Copilot Prompt: Make Existing Frontend Live with Tebex Plugin API

Current Situation

I have an existing React TypeScript frontend for a Minecraft server shop, but no buttons work and nothing is functional. I need to integrate Tebex Plugin API to make it fully functional with real data and working checkout.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React 18+ with TypeScript
• Build Tool: Vite
• Styling: Tailwind CSS
• API: Tebex Plugin API (https://plugin.tebex.io/)

Tebex Plugin API Configuration

Authentication

• Secret Key: I have the Tebex secret key ready
• Base URL: https://plugin.tebex.io/
• Authentication: X-Tebex-Secret: {SECRET_KEY} header (NOT Bearer token)

Key Plugin API Endpoints

GET /information - Get store info
GET /packages - Get all packages/products
POST /baskets - Create checkout basket
POST /baskets/{basketId}/packages - Add package to basket
GET /baskets/{basketId}/links - Get checkout URL

What I Need You To Do

1. Environment Setup

Create/update .env file:

VITE_TEBEX_SECRET_KEY=my_secret_key_here
VITE_TEBEX_API_URL=https://plugin.tebex.io

2. Complete API Service Implementation

Create src/services/tebexApi.ts with:

• Proper Plugin API authentication (X-Tebex-Secret header)
• All necessary API calls for fetching packages and checkout
• TypeScript interfaces for all responses
• Error handling and loading states
• Rate limiting considerations

3. Make Existing Components Functional

A. Product Display Components

• Connect existing product cards to real Tebex package data
• Display real prices, names, descriptions from Plugin API
• Add proper loading states while fetching packages
• Handle error states if API fails
• Group packages by categories (Ranks, Packages, Premium Money)

B. Make Checkout Process Work

• Connect existing checkout buttons to real functionality
• Add Minecraft username input validation
• Implement basket creation with Plugin API
• Add packages to basket
• Generate checkout URL and redirect to Tebex
• Add loading indicators during checkout process

4. TypeScript Interfaces Needed

Define interfaces for Tebex Plugin API responses:

// Example structures based on Plugin API docs
interface TebexPackage {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  price: number;
  // ... other fields from API
}

interface TebexBasket {
  ident: string;
  // ... other fields
}

5. State Management

Implement React hooks for:

• Loading packages from Plugin API
• Managing cart/basket state
• Handling checkout process
• Loading and error states
• User input (Minecraft username)

6. Checkout Flow Implementation

1. User browses packages (loaded from Plugin API)
2. User selects packages and enters Minecraft username
3. Create basket via POST /baskets
4. Add selected packages via POST /baskets/{basketId}/packages
5. Get checkout URL via GET /baskets/{basketId}/links
6. Redirect user to Tebex checkout URL
7. Handle return from Tebex (success/cancel pages)

7. Error Handling & UX

• Loading spinners during API calls
• Error messages for failed requests
• Input validation for Minecraft usernames
• Proper feedback during checkout process
• Handle API rate limits gracefully

Specific Requirements

API Integration Points

• Fetch real packages on component mount
• Real-time basket creation and management
• Proper error handling for all API calls
• Secure secret key handling (environment variables)

UI/UX Requirements

• Keep existing Tailwind styling
• Add loading states to existing components
• Make all buttons functional
• Add proper form validation
• Mobile-responsive design maintained

Security & Best Practices

• Never expose secret key in frontend bundle
• Validate all user inputs
• Handle API errors gracefully
• Follow React best practices
• Use proper TypeScript types

Expected Deliverables

Please provide:

1. Complete API service (tebexApi.ts) with all Plugin API calls
2. Updated React components that connect to real API data
3. Working checkout flow that creates baskets and redirects to Tebex
4. TypeScript interfaces for all API responses
5. Environment configuration for secret key
6. Error handling throughout the application
7. Loading states for better UX

Key Focus Areas

• Make existing frontend components work with real Tebex data
• Implement complete checkout flow with Plugin API
• Ensure all buttons and interactions are functional
• Maintain existing design while adding functionality
• Use Tebex Plugin API documentation: https://docs.tebex.io/plugin

Generate production-ready code that transforms my static frontend into a fully functional Tebex-integrated Minecraft server shop!
