Theme

Expected behavior

I have a github action that creates a shopify theme. On first run, I always see the following error when using context templates.

Existing issues: https://github.com/Shopify/cli/issues/3301 is the same issue but I can see was closed out

Actual behavior

The following error is observed: update templates/index.context.b2b.json: Parent filename 'index.json' does not exist. Please enter a valid filename

Verbose output

Reproduction steps

1. Create a file named index.context.b2b.json with content:

 "parent": "index.json",
  "context": {
    "b2b": true
  }

2. Push to a new theme: shopify theme push --unpublished --theme='test' --environment='development' --path=''. Note that this only happens when running a CI/CD integration and not from the command line
3. Observe the error update templates/index.context.b2b.json: Parent filename 'index.json' does not exist. Please enter a valid filename

Thank you for reporting this, @Jay-Plumb! Upgrading to Shopify 3.69.0 should resolve this issue.

This bug was occurring in the legacy implementation of the shopify theme push command (and Shopify CLI 3.68.x was still using the legacy one in some scenarios, as the logs show it's the legacy one running).

However, Shopify CLI 3.69.0 runs the new implementation of the push command in all scenarios by default, so you shouldn't experience this issue there.

With that in mind, I'm closing this one, but thank you for reporting it!
