contentful-clean-space

Delete all entries from a contentful space.

Contentful CLI doesn't have a command to delete all entries from a space without deleting the space itself. However, this can be very useful, e.g. for user contract testing.

Installation

Using npm:

npm install -g contentful-clean-space

Usage

contentful-clean-space
Options:
      --help           Show help                                       [boolean]
      --space-id       Contentful space id                   [string] [required]
      --env            Contentful environment                [string] [required]
      --accesstoken    Contentful access token               [string] [required]
      --batch-size     Number of parallel contentful requests
                                                           [number] [default: 5]
      --content-types  Delete content types as well   [boolean] [default: false]
      --assets         Delete assets as well          [boolean] [default: false]
  -y, --yes            Auto-confirm delete prompt     [boolean] [default: false]
  -v, --verbose                                       [boolean] [default: false]

All parameters can be provided from environment variables, too. To do that, just set an environment variable using UPPER_CASE casing.

Example Usage

To delete all entries, content types, as well as assets in the "master" environment, and without the safety prompt, use contentful-clean-space --space-id [space id] --accesstoken [personal access token] --content-types=true --assets=true --env master --yes=true

Using this tool is terrifying. Here's some ideas to make it less scary.

Hi,

This is extremely helpful but terrifying to use.

My use case is that I have a sandbox environment I need to clear out which shares a space with the master environment of a production site for a commercial entity.

This tool should provide more verbose feedback and change its default settings to make it less likely to accidentally the delete the master environment entries, which I am terrified might happen.

Please implement the following:

Please do NOT make master the default value for the --env option, or set any default value here, please make the user set this manually every time.
Please DO make the default value for the --yes confirmation prompt true by default.
Please DO print the environment name as a sanity check before deleting entries.
Please DO provide an example of a "safe" and "correct" CLI command. So far, I have not been able to get the --yes flag to work correctly, having tried --yes, --yes=true, and -y.

Thank you!
