A user is migrating to Shopify CLI 3.0 and needs to deploy extensions from a custom build folder instead of the default location. They attempted using the --path build argument with shopify app deploy, but the CLI only detected extensions at the root level, not inside the build directory.
Another user provided the solution: use the extension_directories field in the shopify.app.toml configuration file to specify custom extension directories. They included a link to the official Shopify documentation for additional details on app structure and extensions configuration.
I’m trying to migrate an app to the new 3.0 CLI. And my extensions are built to a different folder called build. I want the shopify CLI to look into that folder to find the expected extensions folder. I tried using the path argument but it still only detected the extensions folder when it is placed at the root and not inside the build folder.
This is how I used the command:
shopify app deploy --path build
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi!
You can specify a custom directory for your extensions with the extension_directories field in shopify.app.toml.
