Issue

  • Locally, after making changes to fragments, I can promote those changes using the command npm run import.
  • Is there a similar way to promote code through the CLI?

Environment

  • Liferay PaaS

Resolution

  • The CLI tool cannot build fragments.
  • Instead, fragments should be built locally using npm run compress
  • Then added to the liferay/configs/environment/deploy folder in your local repo before pushing the changes to GitHub using the following steps:
    1. Add the fragment to the liferay/configs/environment/deploy folder in my local repo
    2. Push the changes to GitHub
    3. Deploy the build to my environment
    4. Check that the fragment is present
