Not clear an why the variant field are outside of the if statement above? From my understanding, it should be an all or nothing update. Meaning, all inventory fields across top level product variants and options

@willopez If I am reading the auto-publishing code correctly, then I don't see where it updates those two fields. It auto-publishes the others but not those. So I left them as always needing to be manually published.
I agree it may be best for it to work as you say, all fields, but I would treat that as a separate PR because it's a bigger change and I'm not sure what the ramifications would be.

OK, that sounds good. Lets create another issue to follow up on the other fields in the future.

Issue
By default, Reaction auto-publishes inventory quantity changes to the Catalog.
In some cases, due to syncing inventory with external systems, code may want to emit
"afterVariantUpdate"withfieldset to"inventoryInStock"but NOT have those changes auto-published to the Catalog.Solution
AUTO_PUBLISH_INVENTORY_FIELDS=falseenvironment variable can now be used to disable the auto-publishing. If you are editing the inventory "in stock" or "warn at" values manually in the operator UI, you'll see the "changes need publishing" and you'll have to click Publish.Breaking changes
None. The default is
true.Testing
Without the new ENV set, change the inventory in stock for an option in the UI. Verify:
With the new ENV set, change the inventory in stock for an option in the UI. Verify:
In either case, toggling inventory management or "allow backorder" should NOT result in any updates. Those changes must be manually published with the Publish button.
