custom_types are not automatically populated into prismic.io

@phillysnow

With prismic-cli v4 or v3 when we run

$ prismic theme --theme-url https://github.com/prismicio-community/nuxt-sm-tutorial-series --conf sm.json

Nothing is populated into prismic.io. No custom_types or no document. Probably it's normal because there is no such folder.

It could be cool to have at least the same thing than with :

$ prismic theme --theme-url https://github.com/prismicio/nuxtjs-website --conf nuxt.config.js

Into https://github.com/prismicio/nuxtjs-website/tree/a2eae05415a62161db7169bc43501030af3f9d43 we could see a folder custom_types and documents than populate custom_types and document into prismic.io.

So this is expected behaviour when it comes to Slice Machine sample projects, this is why in the install guide we have step

6. Push your Shared Slices to Prismic

https://prismic.io/docs/technologies/run-a-pre-configured-project-nuxtjs

There are plans to prepopulate content for Slice Machine themes in the future, but it's not being worked on at the minute.

Ok thanks @phillysnow for your answer :-)

[phillysnow]

No worries, although you're right, the custom types should be pushed initially, we're looking into this.

[JulioJu]

Ok thanks !

[phillysnow]

This should be good now, just upgrade the CLI to 4.0.2

[JulioJu]

It works, thanks !
