Can the CLI tool build and deploy fragments?

Note: please note that Liferay has renamed its Liferay Experience Could offerings to Liferay SaaS (formerly LXC) and Liferay PaaS (formerly LXC-SM).

Issue

• Locally, after making changes to fragments, I can promote those changes using the command npm run import.
• Is there a similar way to promote code through the CLI?

Environment

• Liferay PaaS

Resolution

• The CLI tool cannot build fragments.
• Instead, fragments should be built locally using npm run compress
• Then added to the liferay/configs/environment/deploy folder in your local repo before pushing the changes to GitHub using the following steps:
  1. Add the fragment to the liferay/configs/environment/deploy folder in my local repo
  2. Push the changes to GitHub
  3. Deploy the build to my environment
  4. Check that the fragment is present
