How to Create a Fulfillment Provider?

A fulfillment provider is a TypeScript or JavaScript class that extends the AbstractFulfillmentProviderService class imported from @medusajs/utils. You can create it part of your Medusa application codebase, in a plugin, or in a provider module.

Configure Fulfillment Providers

The Fulfillment Module accepts a providers option that allows you to register providers in your application. When the Medusa application starts, it registers these modules and adds records of the FulfillmentProvider for them.
