Deploy environments

Thomas Kelly edited this page May 4, 2018 · 2 revisions

Manages the environment variables which are needed by Slate to interact with Shopify servers. Can create and run .env files used to store Slate environment variables for development.

By default, Slate will look for a .env file with environment variables.

Alternatively, users can specify --env with slate-tools scripts to use associated .env.{env} file. For example:

$ slate-tools start --env=production

will look for a .env.production file.

Default .env file format

# The myshopify.com URL to your Shopify store
SLATE_STORE=

# The API password generated from a Private App
SLATE_PASSWORD=

# The ID of the theme you wish to upload files too
SLATE_THEME_ID=

# A list of file patterns to ignore, with each list item seperated by ':'
SLATE_IGNORE_FILES=
