If you prefer to use environment variables instead of command-line arguments:

1. Create a .env file with your Shopify credentials:

   SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_access_token
   MYSHOPIFY_DOMAIN=your-store.myshopify.com
   

2. Run the server with npx:

   npx shopify-mcp
   

Direct Installation (Optional)

If you want to install the package globally:

npm install -g shopify-mcp

Then run it:

shopify-mcp --accessToken=<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN> --domain=<YOUR_SHOP>.myshopify.com

⚠️ Important: If you see errors about "SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable is required" when using command-line arguments, you might have a different package installed. Make sure you're using shopify-mcp, not shopify-mcp-server.
