Overview

The Content Island CLI allows you to quickly bootstrap codebase solutions and connect them to your Content Island projects.

Currently, the following template is available:

• Starlight Template

Additional templates will be added soon.

Using the Starlight Template

Prerequisites

• A Content Island account (free plans are available).
• A new Content Island project created with the Starlight template.

Step 1 --- Create a Starlight project

Run the following command to create a new Starlight project and install its dependencies:

npm create astro@latest -- --template starlight

Step 2 --- Connect your Content Island project

Once your Starlight project has been created, connect it to your Content Island project:

npm create contentisland@latest

When prompted, provide your Content Island Project API token. You can copy this token from the General tab of your Content Island project settings.

Step 3 --- Sync your content

The CLI will automatically replace the contents of the content/docs folder with the content from your Content Island project.

You can then run your project locally:

npm run dev

Step 4 --- Update content

Manage your content directly in Content Island---add, edit, or delete folders and pages. To update your local Starlight project with the latest content, run:

npm create contentisland@latest update
