Contentful::Management

Ruby client for the Contentful Content Management API.

Contentful provides a content infrastructure for digital teams to power content in websites, apps, and devices. Unlike a CMS, Contentful was built to integrate with the modern software stack. It offers a central hub for structured content, powerful management and delivery APIs, and a customizable web app that enable developers and content creators to ship digital products faster.

Setup

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'contentful-management'

Usage

Examples

Some examples can be found in the examples/ directory or you take a look at this extended example script.

Client

At the beginning the API client instance should be created for each thread that is going to be used in your application:

require 'contentful/management'

client = Contentful::Management::Client.new('access_token')

The access token can easily be created through the management api documentation.

Spaces

Retrieving all spaces:

spaces = client.spaces.all

Retrieving one space by ID:

blog_space = client.spaces.find('blog_space_id')

Destroying a space:

blog_space.destroy

Creating a space:

blog_space = client.spaces.new
blog_space.name = 'Blog Space'
blog_space.save

or

blog_space = client.spaces.create(name: 'Blog Space')

or in the context of the organization (if you have multiple organizations within your account):

blog_space = client.spaces.create(name: 'Blog Space', organization_id: 'organization_id')

If you want to create a default locale different from en-US:

blog_space = client.spaces.create(name: 'Blog Space', default_locale: 'de-DE')

Updating a space:

blog_space.update(name: 'New Blog Space')

or

blog_space.name = 'New Blog Space'
blog_space.save

Environments

Retrieving all environments:

environments = client.environments('space_id').all

Or if you already have a fetched space:

environments = space.environments.all

Retrieving one environment by ID:

environment = client.environments('space_id').find('master')

Destroying a environment:

environment.destroy

Creating an environment:

environment = client.environments('space_id').new
environment.id = 'dev'
environment.name = 'Development'
environment.save

or

environment = client.environments(space_id).create(id: 'dev', name: 'Development')

Creating an evironment with a different source:

environment = client.environments(space_id).create(id: 'dev', name: 'Development', source_environment_id: 'other_environment')

Updating a environment:

environment.update(name: 'New Blog environment')

or

environment.name = 'Dev'
environment.save

Assets

Retrieving all assets from the environment:

blog_post_assets = environment.assets.all

Retrieving an asset by id:

blog_post_asset = environment.assets.find('asset_id')

Creating a file:

image_file = Contentful::Management::File.new
image_file.properties[:contentType] = 'image/jpeg'
image_file.properties[:fileName] = 'example.jpg'
image_file.properties[:upload] = 'http://www.example.com/example.jpg'

Creating an asset:

my_image_asset = environment.assets.create(title: 'My Image', description: 'My Image Description', file: image_file)

or an asset with multiple locales

my_image_localized_asset = environment.assets.new
my_image_localized_asset.title_with_locales= {'en-US' => 'title', 'pl' => 'pl title'}
my_image_localized_asset.description_with_locales= {'en-US' => 'description', 'pl' => 'pl description'}
en_file = Contentful::Management::File.new
en_file.properties[:contentType] = 'image/jpeg'
en_file.properties[:fileName] = 'pic1.jpg'
en_file.properties[:upload] = 'http://www.example.com/pic1.jpg'
pl_file = Contentful::Management::File.new
pl_file.properties[:contentType] = 'image/jpeg'
pl_file.properties[:fileName] = 'pic2.jpg'
pl_file.properties[:upload] = 'http://www.example.com/pic2.jpg'
asset.file_with_locales= {'en-US' => en_file, 'pl' => pl_file}
asset.save

Process an asset file after create:

asset.process_file

Updating an asset:

default locale

my_image_asset.update(title: 'My Image', description: 'My Image Description', file: image_file)

another locale (we can switch locales for the object, so then all fields are in context of selected locale)

my_image_asset.locale = 'nl'
my_image_asset.update(title: 'NL Title', description: 'NL Description', file: nl_image)

field with multiple locales

my_image_asset.title_with_locales = {'en-US' => 'US Title', 'nl' => 'NL Title'}
my_image_asset.save

Destroying an asset:

my_image_asset.destroy

Archiving or unarchiving an asset:

my_image_asset.archive
my_image_asset.unarchive

Checking if an asset is archived:

my_image_asset.archived?

Publishing or unpublishing an asset:

my_image_asset.publish
my_image_asset.unpublish

Checking if an asset is published:

my_image_asset.published?

Checking if has been updated from last published version:

my_image_asset.updated?

File Uploads

Creating an upload from a file path:

upload = client.uploads('space_id').create('/path/to/file.md')

Alternatively, create it from an ::IO object:

File.open('/path/to/file.md', 'rb') do |file|
  upload = client.uploads('space_id').create(file)
end

Finding an upload:

upload = client.uploads('space_id').find('upload_id')

Deleting an upload:

upload.destroy

Associating an upload with an asset:

# We find or create an upload:
upload = client.uploads('space_id').find('upload_id')

# We create a File object with the associated upload:
file = Contentful::Management::File.new
file.properties[:contentType] = 'text/plain'
file.properties[:fileName] = 'file.md'
file.properties[:uploadFrom] = upload.to_link_json  # We create the Link from the upload.

# We create an asset with the associated file:
asset = client.assets('space_id', 'environment_id').create(title: 'My Upload', file: file)
asset.process_file  # We process the file, to generate an URL for our upload.

Entries

Retrieving all entries from the environment:

entries = environment.entries.all

Retrieving all entries from the environment with given content type:

entries = environment.entries.all(content_type: content_type.id)

or

entries = content_type.entries.all

Retrieving an entry by ID:

entry = environment.entries.find('entry_id')

Retrieving entries by any other field value:

entries = environment.entries.all(content_type: content_type.id, 'fields.fieldName' => 'value')

Note: all search parameters are supported.

Creating a location:

location = Location.new
location.lat = 22.44
location.lon = 33.33

Creating an entry:

with a default locale

my_entry = blog_post_content_type.entries.create(post_title: 'Title', assets_array_field: [image_asset_1, ...], entries_array_field: [entry_1, ...], location_field: location)

with multiple locales

my_entry = blog_post_content_type.entries.new
my_entry.post_title_with_locales = {'en-US' => 'EN Title', 'pl' => 'PL Title'}
my_entry.save

Updating an entry:

with a default locale

my_entry.update(params)

with another locale

entry.locale = 'nl'
entry.update(params)

with multiple locales

my_entry.post_title_with_locales = {'en-US' => 'EN Title', 'pl' => 'PL Title'}
my_entry.save

Destroying an entry:

my_entry.destroy

Archiving or unarchiving the entry:

my_entry.archive
my_entry.unarchive

Checking if the entry is archived:

my_entry.archived?

Publishing or unpublishing the entry:

my_entry.publish
my_entry.unpublish

Checking if the entry is published:

my_entry.published?

Checking if the entry has been updated from last publish:

my_entry.updated?

Entries created with empty fields, will not return those fields in the response. Therefore, entries that don't have cache enabled, will need to make an extra request to fetch the content type and fill the missing fields. To allow for content type caching:

Enable content type cache at client instantiation time

Query entries through environment.entries.find instead of Entry.find(environment_id, entry_id)

Content Types

Retrieving all content types from a environment:

blog_post_content_type.fields.add(field)

or

blog_post_content_type.fields.create(id: 'title_field_id', name: 'Post Title', type: 'Text')

if the field_id exists, the related field will be updated.

or the field of link type:

blog_post_content_type.fields.create(id: 'my_entry_link_field', name: 'My Entry Link Field', type: 'Link', link_type: 'Entry')

Logging

Logging is disabled by default, it can be enabled by setting a logger instance and a logging severity.

client = Contentful::Management::Client.new('access_token', logger: logger_instance, log_level: Logger::DEBUG)

Example loggers:

Rails.logger
Logger.new('logfile.log')

The default severity is set to INFO and logs only the request attributes (headers, parameters and url). Setting it to DEBUG will also log the raw JSON response.

Raise Errors

If :raise_errors is set to true, an Exception will be raised in case of an error. The default is false, in this case a Contentful::Management::Error object will be returned.

client = Contentful::Management::Client.new('access_token', raise_errors: true)

Content Type Cache

This allows for fetching content types for your environment at client instantiation time, which prevents extra requests per entry. To enable this, in your client instantiation do:

client = Contentful::Management::Client.new(token, dynamic_entries: {'my_space_id' => 'my_environment_id'})

You can enable the cache for as many environments as you want. If no environment is added, content types will be fetched upon environment find.

To completely disable this feature, upon client instantiation do:

client = Contentful::Management::Client.new(token, disable_content_type_caching: true)

Proxy Support

This allows for using the CMA SDK through a proxy, for this, your proxy must support HTTPS and your server must have a valid signed certificate.

To enable this, in your client instantiation do:

PROXY_HOST = 'localhost'
PROXY_PORT = 8888

# Just host/port
client = Contributing::Management::Client.new(
  token,
  proxy_host: PROXY_HOST,
  proxy_port: PROXY_PORT
)

# With username/password
client = Contributing::Management::Client.new(
  token,
  proxy_host: PROXY_HOST,
  proxy_port: PROXY_PORT,
  proxy_username: 'YOUR_USERNAME',
  proxy_password: 'YOUR_PASSWORD'
)

Rate limit management

With the following configuration options you can handle how rate limits are handled within your applications.

:max_rate_limit_retries

To increase or decrease the retry attempts after a 429 Rate Limit error. Default value is 1. Using 0 will disable retry behaviour. Each retry will be attempted after the value (in seconds) of the X-Contentful-RateLimit-Reset header, which contains the amount of seconds until the next non rate limited request is available, has passed. This is blocking per execution thread.

:max_rate_limit_wait

Maximum time to wait for next available request (in seconds). Default value is 60 seconds. Keep in mind that if you hit the houly rate limit maximum, you can have up to 60 minutes of blocked requests. It is set to a default of 60 seconds in order to avoid blocking processes for too long, as rate limit retry behaviour is blocking per execution thread.
