Headless CMS CLI

Grutil

A helpful GraphQL utility

Please log any issues to Github issues.

The current version works with GraphCMS and downloads schemas, content, backs up your project to disk (including asset files) and allows simple rendering.

Functions

• Download
• Backup
• Render

@note this project was originally called cmsutil. It was later changed to avoid namespace collisions in some linux environments as there is a cryptography packaged called cmsutil. If you are currently running the old cmsutil please delete and reintsall grutil in its place.

Install

Once you have Go installed on your target environment, simply run the following to install

go get github.com/arroyo/grutil

Config

In your home directory create a folder called ".grutil" and put a text file called "config.yaml" in it.

There is an example config file in the repo.

It has been tested with YAML, but it is possible to use JSON or TOML (use the extensions .json and .toml respectively).

CMS_API_URL must start with https:// or http://

Envars

You can override the settings in your yaml config with the following environment variables

CMS_API_URL

CMS_API_KEY

Usage

Get a copy of your schema or content with the download command. Backup your entire project with the backup command. Render a GraphQL query against a template.

You can add optional --verbose and --debug flags to any command. Verbose will add more details of what is happening as the program runs. Debug is useful if you are having issues and want to see what API calls are happening behind the scenes. Debug will show the GraphQL query being made and the API response body.
