@somethingdigital/somethingdigital-shopify-deploybot v1.4.10

Shopify Deploybot

This is a node module to assist with deploying to Shopify stores. It's meant to be used with the Something Digital Azure Devops Pipelines.

By default, the deployed theme contains the deployment date and commit hash. However, because the theme title can be changed by the merchant, the deployment tooling injects a new file called deploybot-meta.json within the /assets. This file contains the date of deployment and the commit hash which was used during that deployment. This allows our tooling to know what version is deployed even after a theme name is changed in the admin. The file is accessible via Shopify theme code editor and also via the customer storefront for automated performance tooling.

Example:

{
  "commitHash": "d90cad85f0b786e405c3f6c53d8777b21bdc77fb",
  "deployDate": "Wed Jun 03 2020 17:54:27 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)"
}
