These are my experience when I have been working on this tool:

  • Using Gulp to Automate & Enhance the Development Workflow.
  • Using Parcel to Bundle all SCSS, JavaScript, Font, Image, ... Assets.
  • Using LiveReload to Reload the Browser Automatically When Saving the Files.
  • Using PostCSS to Make CSS Code Compatible with Old Browsers.

Configuration

To config the project, you need to copy and rename the config.yml.example file to the config.yml file. Then update the store, password, theme_id properties.

There are sections in the config.yml file:

  • The development section is for your development branch.
  • The production section is for your production branch.
  • The feature section is for your feature branch.
development:
  store: store-name.myshopify.com
  password: store-admin-api-password
  theme_id: store-theme-id

production:
  store: store-name.myshopify.com
  password: store-admin-api-password
  theme_id: store-theme-id

feature:
  store: store-name.myshopify.com
  password: store-admin-api-password
  theme_id: store-theme-id

Store Property

To fill the store property, you copy your store's hostname and paste it to the config.yml file.

Password Property

To fill the password property, please follow these steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, click Apps.
  2. Near the bottom of the page, click Manage private apps.
  3. If private app development is disabled, then click Enable private app development. Only the store owner can enable private app development.
  4. Click Create new private app.
  5. In the App details section, fill out the app name and your email address.
  6. In the Admin API section, click Show inactive Admin API permissions.
  7. Scroll to the Themes section and select Read and write from the dropdown.
  8. Click Save.
  9. Read the private app confirmation dialog, then click Create app.
  10. In the Admin API section of the App, copy the password and paste it into the config.yml file.

Theme ID Property

To fill the theme_id property, please follow these steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, click Online Store.
  2. At the top of the Online Store menu, click Themes.
  3. In the Current theme section, click Actions and select Duplicate to backup your current theme.
  4. Next, click the Customize button.
  5. There is a link like this https://store-name.myshopify.com/admin/themes/[theme_id]/editor on your browser's address bar. Copy the theme_id and paste it into the config.yml file.

Usage
