How to sync Contentful data with backend models?

The project expects Contentful to contain a demoItem model type with certain fields. In order to make the configuration process easier for you we've prepared a simple Contentful migration that creates said model.

caution

For now Contentful migrations are not run in CI/CD pipeline and are far from being complete to use as a production migration flow.

Get Contentful management API access token​

You can follow official documentation to acquire necessary Management API access key required to run a Contentful migration script.

Configure environmental variables​

Set environmental variables in the packages/contentful/.env file. If it doesn't exist create it using packages/contentful/.env.example first.

CONTENTFUL_SPACE_ID=<CHANGE_ME>
CONTENTFUL_ACCESS_TOKEN=<CHANGE_ME>
CONTENTFUL_ENVIRONMENT=<CHANGE_ME>

Run the command​

Run following command from the root of the project:
