The cute content and its respective command options represents the real workhorse of the cute tool. It essentially presents the user with a suite of bulk operation options to interact with their content in Contentful.
Content can easily be downloaded from your Contentful space in one of several popular formats including Excel, comma separated (CSV), tab separated (TSV), JSON and YAML. If no format is specified, the downloaded file with default to the Excel format.
cute content download --content-type <contentType>
cute content download --content-type <contentType> --format [excel|csv|tsv|json|yaml]
Issuing any content download command will yield a result similar to the display below.
Typing cute download --help will list all currently available options and usage.
USAGE:
cute content download [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-c, --content-type-id <ID> The Contentful content type id
-l, --locale <CODE> The locale code (eg. 'en') to apply the command to. Default is all
-f, --format <FORMAT> The output format for the download operation (Excel/CSV/TSV/JSON/YAML)
-p, --path <PATH> The output path and filename for the download operation
You can upload content from a local file to your Contentful space. The local file can be a previously downloaded and updated Excel, CSV, TSV, JSON or YAML file.
cute will prompt you to confirm a 2-digit code to prevent you from updating your content accidentally.
Typing cute content upload --help will show the full usage and options.
USAGE:
cute content upload [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-c, --content-type-id <ID> The Contentful content type id
-l, --locale <CODE> The locale code (eg. 'en') to apply the command to. Default is all
-p, --path <PATH> The local path to the file containing the data to sync
-f, --format <FORMAT> The format of the file specified in '--path' (Excel/CSV/TSV/JSON/YAML)
-m, --match-field <NAME> The optional name of the field to match in addition to the entry id
-a, --apply Apply and publish all the calculated changes. The default behaviour is to only list the detected changes
cute supports structural subtyping through the type scaffold command option. You can export TypeScript (TS) or .NET (CS) interface declarations, or a simple Excel file with individual worksheets detailing your content model. This feature is especially useful to keep your JavaScript or .NET projects in sync with your content types.
USAGE:
cute type scaffold [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-c, --content-type Specifies the content type to generate types for. Default is all
-o, --output The local path to output the generated types to
-l, --language The language to generate types for (TypeScript/CSharp)
-n, --namespace The optional namespace for the generated type
You can generate content using OpenAI Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) using the bulk operation feature of cute.
OpenAI ChatGPT uses a state-of-the-art Large Language Model (LLM) to generate text that is difficult to distinguish from human-written content.
Prompts and system messages that are generally used to interact with ChatGPT are configured and persisted in your Contentful space. This is especially useful as your AI prompts are persisted and backed up in the cloud right alongside your content.
Prompts can be added and configured in the 🤖 Cute / ContentGenerate section your Contentful space. A typical prompt entry has an id, a system message, a prompt, points to a content type and field. Something like :-
| Title | Note |
|---|---|
| title | A short title by which the prompt entry is referred to. |
| systemMessage | Used to communicate instructions or provide context to the model at the beginning of a conversation. |
| prompt | A question or instruction that you issue to ChatGPT. This prompt is used to generate an appropriate response. |
| deploymentModel | Select which Large Language Model (LLM) is used for your interaction. |
| maxTokenLimit | The maximum tokens to be used for the interaction |
| temperature | Controls the randomness of the generated response. A higher temperature value increases randomness, making the responses more diverse and creative, while a lower value makes them more focused and deterministic. |
| topP | Controls the diversity of the generated output by truncating the probability distribution of words. It functions as a filter to determine the number of words or phrases the language model examines while predicting the next word. For instance, when the Top P value is set at 0.4, the model only considers 40% of the most probable words or phrases. A higher Top P value results in more diverse creative responses. A lower value will result in more focused and coherent responses. |
| frequencyPenalty | Controls the repetitiveness of words in generated responses. Increasing this value is like telling ChatGPT not to use the same words too often. |
| presencePenalty | Manages the appearance of words in generated text based on their position, rather than frequency. This parameter encourages ChatGPT to employ a more diverse vocabulary |
| cuteDataQueryEntry | A link to the associated data query in 🤖 Cute / DataQuery |
| promptOutputContentField | The target field of the content entry where the generated response is stored. |
DESCRIPTION:
