contenful management api projects

Contentful Management Api Training

A sample 'ticket' given by Melanie Bouic for me to practice with CMA:

---

The ticket

Contentful Platform

• Create a content model on contentful platform: Name "product" with the following fields: 

Field name	Field value	Required
Title	short text	true
Path	short text
Label	short tet
Introduction	long text
shop	reference accepting only specific values -"Shop"  with appearance: "entry Link"

Scripting

Creation of script

1. Communication with contentful management API
2. Populate the contentType with 1 content:

Field name	Field value
title	sensitve pampers
path	pampers.com/sensitive
label	wipes
introduction	{ introduction }

{ introduction } : Pampers Swaddlers diapers are the number one choice of hospitals, based on, protection, comfort, dryness and more. Buy now at Pampers.com

3. A function to create a field name "slug" - short text with the value found in the title field. Published the content. 
4. create a log file (log.txt) in the following format  DATE: Wed May 03 2023 10:47:22 GMT+0400 (Mauritius Standard Time) Published "filed Name"- id: "ID"
5. Create another another field called "US shop" in boolean type with default value true
6. append your log file with successful or unsuccessful response (in the same format above)
7. Delete the field "Shop"  append your log file with successful or unsuccessful response (in the same format above)

How to run the script

The main function is where you would run your tasks

Operations

Operations	Function	Parameters	Return
Connect to CMA	connect		env
Create an entry	createEntry	env, entry
Create a field	createField	env, field
Update a field	updateField	env, field
Delete a field	deleteField	env, field

**Note: **

Re-running the script as it is would cause an error, which will be catched in a catch statement and be logged to log.txt. Plausible scenario: Creating the same field twice.

• Since, the function createField does not check if the field already exists, an error will be caught and logged.
