Contentstack DataSync Manager
Contentstack DataSync lets you sync your Contentstack data with your database, enabling you to save data locally and serve content directly from your database. It is a combination of four powerful modules that is DataSync Webhook Listener, DataSync Manager, DataSync Asset Store Filesystem, DataSync Content Store — Filesystem and MongoDB.
The DataSync Manager is one of the four important components of Contentstack DataSync. When any publish, unpublish, or delete operations are performed on assets or content, the DataSync Manager fetches the data and sends it to Content Store. It uses Contentstack's Sync APIs to sync data from Contentstack with your preferred database — Filesystem and MongoDB in our case.
Prerequisite
- nodejs v8+
Usage
This is how DataSync Manager works with DataSync boilerplate:
const assetStore = require('@contentstack/datasync-asset-store-filesystem')
const contentStore = require('@contentstack/datasync-content-store-filesystem')
const listener = require('@contentstack/webhook-listener')
const syncManager = require('@contentstack/datasync-manager') // <--
const config = require('./config')
// Set asset, content store, listener and config to Datasync Manager
syncManager.setAssetStore(assetStore)
syncManager.setContentStore(contentStore)
syncManager.setListener(listener)
syncManager.setConfig(config)
// start DataSync manager
syncManager.start()
.then(() => {
console.log('Contentstack sync started successfully!')
})
.catch(console.error)
You can replace @contentstack/datasync-content-store-filesystem used above, with @contentstack/datasync-content-store-mongodb and switch content store databases.
