Storyblok Backup CLI

npm version license

A npx CLI tool to create a full backup of a space of the Storyblok CMS.

The script will fetch the following resources of a Storyblok space using the Management API and archive them in a zip file:

  • Stories
  • Components
  • Component groups
  • Assets (optionally incl. original files)
  • Asset folders
  • Datasources (incl. entries)
  • Space
  • Space Roles
  • Tasks
  • Activities
  • Presets
  • Field types
  • Workflow stages
  • Workflow stage changes
  • Custom workflows
  • Releases

Installation

# simply auto-download and run via npx
$ npx storyblok-backup

# or install globally
$ npm install -g storyblok-backup

# or install for project using npm
$ npm install storyblok-backup

# or install for project using yarn
$ yarn add storyblok-backup

# or install for project using pnpm
$ pnpm add storyblok-backup

Usage

Call npx storyblok-backup with the following options:

Options

--token <token>     (required) Personal OAuth access token created
                    in the account settings of a Stoyblok user.
                    (NOT the Access Token of a Space!)
--space <space_id>  (required) ID of the space to backup
--with-asset-files  Downloads all files (assets) of the space. Defaults to false.
--output-dir <dir>  Directory to write the backup to. Defaults to ./.output
                    (ATTENTION: Will fail if the directory already exists!)
--force             Force deletion and recreation of existing output directory.
--create-zip        Create a zip file of the backup. Defaults to false.
--zip-prefix <dir>  Prefix for the zip file. Defaults to 'backup'.
                    (The suffix will automatically be the current date.)
--verbose           Will show detailed output for every file written.
--help              Show this help

Minimal example

npx storyblok-backup --token 1234567890abcdef --space 12345

This will create the folder ./.output/backup and fetch all resources sorted into folders.

Maximal example

npx storyblok-backup \
    --token 1234567890abcdef \
    --space 12345 \
    --with-asset-files \
    --output-dir ./my-dir \
    --force \
    --create-zip \
    --zip-prefix daily \
    --verbose

This will create the folder ./my-dir/backup, fetch all resources (incl. the original file assets) sorted into folders, zip them to ./my-dir/daily-Y-m-d-H-i-s.zip, and log every written file to console.

Continuous Integration

You can e.g. use this script to create periodic backups of Storyblok spaces using GitHub Actions and artifacts.

Here would be an example for a weekly backup, that removes the artifacts/backups from previous runs and uploads a new one:

name: Weekly Storyblok Backup

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 0 * * 0'

jobs:
  backup:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      actions: write

    steps:
      - name: Perform Backup
        env:
          STORYBLOK_OAUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.STORYBLOK_OAUTH_TOKEN }}
          STORYBLOK_SPACE_ID: ${{ secrets.STORYBLOK_SPACE_ID }}
        run: npx storyblok-backup --token $STORYBLOK_OAUTH_TOKEN --space $STORYBLOK_SPACE_ID

      - name: Delete Old Artifacts
        uses: actions/github-script@v6
        id: artifact
        with:
          script: |
            const res = await github.rest.actions.listArtifactsForRepo({
                owner: context.repo.owner,
                repo: context.repo.repo,
            })

            res.data.artifacts
                .filter(({ name }) => name === 'weekly-backup')
                .forEach(({ id }) => {
                  github.rest.actions.deleteArtifact({
                      owner: context.repo.owner,
                      repo: context.repo.repo,
                      artifact_id: id,
                  })
                })

      - name: Upload Artifact
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
        with:
          name: weekly-backup
          path: .output

Make sure, to set the secrets STORYBLOK_OAUTH_TOKEN and STORYBLOK_SPACE_ID in your repository settings.

Note that artifact manipulation requires the actions: write permission for the workflow. The workflow above has this permission set already.

If you create multiple workflows for daily, weekly and monthly backups, by changing the cron-schedule and the two occurrences of the artifact name weekly-backup, you will always have exactly one daily, weekly and monthly backup.

Also keep in mind, that there is a limit on artifact storage and runner minutes (see GitHub docs).
