[!WARNING] Theme Kit has been deprecated (and thus node-themekit). Theme developers should use Shopify CLI for Shopify theme development, as parts of Theme Kit will become unsupported and may stop working soon.

Usage

const themeKit = require('@shopify/themekit');

Examples

Run commands

This wrapper exposes a single function in its API which allows it to run any command available in the original Theme Kit CLI. Here are a collection of examples to run Theme Kit commands.

For a complete list of commands and args: shopify.github.io/themekit/commands.

Example 1

Remove specific files from development environment.

const themeKit = require('@shopify/themekit');

await themeKit.command('remove', {
  env: 'development',
  files: ['snippets/pagination.liquid', 'snippets/date.liquid']
});

Example 3

Deploy all files to staging environment.

const themeKit = require('@shopify/themekit');

themeKit.command('deploy', {
  env: 'staging'
});

Example 4

Deploy theme to production via NPM scripts.

Warning: This example will overwrite the theme based on your config.yml.

"dependencies": {
  "@shopify/themekit": "1.0.0"
},
"scripts": {
  "deploy": "shopify-themekit replace --env production"
}

API

command(command[, flags][, options])

Executes command with arguments using the Theme Kit binary.

• command <String>

  Theme Kit command to run.

• flags <Object>

  Flags to pass into the command.

  All flags specified in the Theme Kit documentation are available, but in camelCase rather than in --flagform.

  {
    noIgnore: true, // --no-ignore
    env: 'development' // --env=development
  }
  

  Additional flags:

  • files: Specify an array of target files to upload.
  • ignoredFiles: Like ignoredFile, but takes in an array of files to ignore.

• options <Object>

  {
    cwd: <String>,      // Hard-code a working directory to run the binary from
    logLevel: <String> // Set level additional output info | 'silent', 'error', 'all', 'silly'
  }
  

For a complete list of commands and flags, see the Theme Kit documentation.

CLI

$ shopify-themekit <args>

This CLI component of this package is intended to be used with NPM scripts. It functions exactly the same as the original Theme Kit binary. If you plan on using the command line interface heavily, please refer to the original Theme Kit repository.
