Match ecommerce events specification

[BrandonJamesBorders]

Hey @OmG3r @ahmedbm27.

Glad to have found your app today. Somewhat new to PostHog and have a question. I noticed the events are the Shopify event names and don't match PostHog's specifications.

https://posthog.com/docs/data/event-spec/ecommerce-events

I'm not familiar with how much harder that makes things in PostHog, but perhaps in your index.ts you could implement an event string map?

const EVENT_MAP = {
  'product_added_to_cart': 'Product Added',
  'product_removed_from_cart': 'Product Removed'
} as const;

event: EVENT_MAP[event.name] || event.name 

In practice then....

        const distinctId = await resolveDistinctId();
        posthog.capture({
          ...(uuid ? { uuid: uuid } : {}),
          distinctId,
          event: EVENT_MAP[event.name] || event.name ,

Hey @BrandonJamesBorders

You are right - our app currently sends the event as structured in Shopify Web Pixels API.

Thank you for bringing this new documentation to our attention.

I think the best solution to support this feature is to add a toggle and allow users to choose which data structure they prefer (with PostHog spec as default).

I have created a new issue to track the progress on this feature here #7

I didn't even notice how new it was! Thanks for the consideration and adding it as a feature.
