The Kontent.ai CLI boilerplate aims to help with your first migration code. We've provided sample migration scripts in the Migrations folder. These scripts are written in Javascript and Typescript to show you the basic operations.

If you are missing your use case, you might find answers in the Management API reference.

The Kontent.ai CLI tool supports only Javascript files, so if you write your migrations in Typescript or any other language you have to transpile your code before running.

npm install

Before you run your migrations, you need to store some information about the environment locally.

The environment is defined as a named pair of values. For example, "DEV" environment can be defined as a pair of a specific environment ID and Management API key. This named pair of values is stored within your local repository in a configuration file named .environments.json.

# Adds a 'DEV' environment reference.
kontent environment add --name DEV --environment-id "<YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_GUID>" --api-key "<YOUR_MANAGAMENT_API_KEY>"

If you've set up an environment using the method above, you can use the prepared scripts to run all migrations in the Migrations directory.

# Executes all migration scripts in the 'Migrations' folder to the 'DEV' environment reference within your Kontent project. 
npm run migrate:all

If you want to run a specific migration you can use also script defined in packages.json

# Executes a migration script named 'my_migration'.
npm run migrate "my_migration"
