(static) getEntries(queryopt) → {Promise.<Entities.EntryCollection>} #

Gets a collection of Entries
Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
query Object <optional>
 Object with search parameters. Check the JS SDK tutorial and the REST API reference for more details.
Properties
Name Type Attributes Description
resolveLinks boolean <optional>
 When true, links to other Entries or Assets are resolved. Default: true.
Returns:
Promise for a collection of Entries
Type:
Promise.<Entities.EntryCollection>
Source:
Example
client.getEntries({content_type: 'contentTypeId'})
.then(entries => console.log(entries.items))

(static) getEntry(id, queryopt) → {Promise.<Entities.Entry>} #

Gets an Entry
Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
id string
query Object <optional>
 Object with search parameters. In this method it's only useful for `locale`.
Returns:
Promise for an Entry
Type:
Promise.<Entities.Entry>
Source:
Example
client.getEntry('entryId')
.then(entry => console.log(entry))

(static) getSpace() → {Promise.<Entities.Space>} #

Gets the Space which the client is currently configured to use
Returns:
Promise for a Space
Type:
Promise.<Entities.Space>
Source:
Example
client.getSpace()
.then(space => console.log(space))

(static) sync(query) → {Promise.<Sync.SyncCollection>} #

Synchronizes either all the content or only new content since last sync See Synchronization for more information. Important note: The the sync api endpoint does not support include or link resolution. However contentful.js is doing link resolution client side if you only make an initial sync. For the delta sync (using nextSyncToken) it is not possible since the sdk wont have access to all the data to make such an operation.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
query Object Query object for the sync call. One of initial or nextSyncToken always needs to be specified, but not both.
Properties
Name Type Attributes Description
initial boolean <nullable>
 Indicates if this is the first sync. Use it if you don't have a sync token.
nextSyncToken string <nullable>
 The token you got the last time you used this method. Ensures you only get changed content.
type string <optional>
 Filter by this type (Entry or Asset)
content_type string <optional>
 Filter by this content type id
resolveLinks boolean <optional>
 When true, links to other Entries or Assets are resolved. Default: true.
Returns:
Promise for the collection resulting of a sync operation
Type:
Promise.<Sync.SyncCollection>
Source:
Example
client.sync()
.then((response) => console.log(response.entries, response.assets, response.nextSyncToken))
