Shopify CLI is a command-line tool that helps you build Shopify apps, themes, and custom storefronts. It provides functionality for initializing, building, developing, and deploying Shopify projects.

​
Requirements

The tool only runs when the following conditions are met:

​
File Types

  • Only processes pull requests changing *.liquid files

​
Configuration Files

  • Requires either .theme-check.yml or .theme-check.yaml configuration file in the project root

​
Directory Structure

  • Requires the standard Shopify theme directory structure at the project root:
    • assets/
    • config/
    • layout/
    • locales/
    • sections/
    • snippets/
    • templates/
If any of these requirements are not met, the tool will not run.

​
When we skip Shopify Theme Check

CodeRabbit will skip running Shopify Theme Check when:
  • No .liquid files are changed in the pull request.
  • The repository does not have the required Shopify theme directory structure.
  • No config file is found (.theme-check.yml or .theme-check.yaml).
  • Shopify Theme Check is already running in GitHub workflows.

​
Validation Rules

The tool checks for:

​
Theme Validation

  • Liquid syntax errors
  • Theme requirements compliance
  • Asset organization
  • Performance best practices
  • Accessibility standards
Note: The tool filters out UndefinedObject and MissingTemplate checks, reporting only errors and warnings for other issues.

​
Common Issues

The tool helps identify and fix:
  1. Theme Issues:
    • Invalid Liquid syntax
    • Missing required templates
    • Performance bottlenecks
    • Accessibility violations
  2. App Issues:
    • Invalid API usage
    • Missing dependencies
    • Configuration errors
