URL Parameters

The marketplace page uses URL parameters for state management:

/marketplace?type=Reforestation&sort=price-asc&search=amazon&page=2
  • type - Project type filter (optional)
  • sort - Sort option (optional, default: date-newest)
  • search - Search query (optional)
  • page - Page number (optional, default: 1)

Integration Points

Authentication (TODO)

Replace currentUserId={null} in app/marketplace/page.tsx with actual user ID from auth context:

import { useAuth } from "@/contexts/AuthContext";

const { userId } = useAuth();

<MarketplaceGrid
  listings={data.listings}
  currentUserId={userId}
/>

Purchase Flow (TODO)

Implement purchase handler in app/marketplace/[id]/page.tsx:

const handlePurchase = () => {
  router.push(`/marketplace/${listing.id}/purchase`);
};

Real API (TODO)

Replace mock data in app/marketplace/page.tsx:

import { fetchMarketplaceListings } from '@/lib/api/marketplace';

const data = await fetchMarketplaceListings({
  page: currentPage,
  projectType: selectedType,
  sortBy,
  searchQuery,
});
