How to configure Magento 2 Theme/Design via the Command-Line?












1















I'm doing some server configuration related tasks and was looking for a way to configure the theme of a store/website via the command-line.



I'm setting up a store with a custom theme (e.g. "Vendor/code") and I would like to activate it without entering the adminhtml website but set the theme on the command-line / in the shell / bash script.

  • Created custom theme, you want to set for store ?

  • @SHPatel: Yes, created a custom theme and then doing semi/automated deployments. Edited the question to reflect this better and have a bit more context.

I was not able to find a direct Magento CLI command so far, I could work around with a Bash and Magerun:



$ THEME_ID="$(n98-magerun2.phar dev:theme:list --format=csv 
| grep 'Vendor/code' | cut -d, -f1)"
; test -n "${THEME_ID}"
&& n98-magerun2.phar config:set design/theme/theme_id "${THEME_ID}"


This sequence sets the configuration path for the theme_id to the one of the named theme (by it's code, which is "Vendor/code" in the example).



In case the operation fails, this has a non-zero status.

    The only command related to themes out of the box in Magento 2 is php bin/magento theme:uninstall which can be used to uninstall a theme.



    I suggest you create your own command following the example in the sample module so you can develop your custom code to configure themes properly.



    Also I suggest you read the official documentation to create your own command: http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/extension-dev-guide/cli-cmds/cli-howto.html

    • I would consider creating a CLI command off-topic in the light of an answer (yes it's possible, and programming it yourself is always the solution of everything, and so its kinda superfluous for an answer here) - and consider that more a comment. But thanks for your efforts and your commentary.
