# Travelling Man connector (`travellingman`)

- Source: https://travellingman.com · UK graphic-novel, manga and games chain (Leeds/York/Manchester/Newcastle, since 1991): manga (ISBN SKUs), graphic novels, S.H.Figuarts, trading figures, Funko, sealed Pokémon/MTG/Yu-Gi-Oh!/Lorcana/Digimon and Gunpla.
- Country/currency: GB / GBP · type: dealer · engine: api (Shopify storefront products.json (public JSON))
- Records: `listing` only (dealer asking prices; never sales — SPEC §111). One listing per variant (condition / size / finish), out-of-stock variants kept as `ended`.
- Refresh: every 24 h (NORMAL class) · historical depth: none (no sold archive).

## How it works
Metadata-only connector: `index.ts` instantiates the shared `ShopifyStoreConnector` adapter; everything source-specific lives in `meta.json` `config`:
collections → taxonomy slug (with brand/franchise/series), title/tag `rules` (first match wins), an `exclude` regex for accessories/apparel/events, and the shop currency. Anything unmapped is skipped, never guessed.

Collections read (15): `manga` → manga, `all-graphic-novels` → comics, `dragon-ball-figuarts` → action_figures, `trading-figures` → action_figures, `pokemon-moncolle` → action_figures, `funko` → funko, `blind-boxes` → designer_toys, `pokemon-tcg` → pokemon, `magic-the-gathering` → magic_the_gathering, `yugioh` → yugioh, `disney-lorcana` → disney_lorcana, `digimon-card-game` → digimon_tcg, `dragon-ball-super-tcg` → dragon_ball_tcg, `star-wars-unlimited` → star_wars_tcg, `gundam` → gundam.

## Access & compliance
See `accessNotes` in meta.json (robots findings, endpoints, rate limit, what is not fetched). Host policy: `connectors/domains.d/g4-shops-intl.json`.

## Fixtures & tests
`data/fixtures/travellingman/*.json` are live captures made with `connectors/api/_g4-shops-intl-lib/capture.ts` (trimmed payloads, expectations derived from the live record). `index.test.ts` runs the framework fixture suite, the g4 store invariants and a mapping unit test on titles observed live. Live probe: `pnpm tsx connectors/api/_g4-shops-intl-lib/smoke.ts travellingman`.
