## Usage

To use the confluence-markdown-exporter, follow these steps:

### 1. Installation

Install python package via pip.

```sh
pip install confluence-markdown-exporter
```

### 2. Exporting

Run the exporter with the desired Confluence page ID or space key. Execute the console application by typing `confluence-markdown-exporter` and one of the commands `page`, `page-with-descendants`, `space`, `all-spaces` or `config`. If a command is unclear, you can always add `--help` to get additional information. 

> [!TIP]
> Instead of `confluence-markdown-exporter` you can also use the shorthand `cf-export`.

#### 2.1. Export Page

Export a single Confluence page by ID:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter page <page-id e.g. 645208921> <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

or by URL:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter page <page-url e.g. https://company.atlassian.net/MySpace/My+Page+Title> <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

#### 2.2. Export Page with Descendants

Export a Confluence page and all its descendant pages by page ID:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter page-with-descendants <page-id e.g. 645208921> <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

or by URL:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter page-with-descendants <page-url e.g. https://company.atlassian.net/MySpace/My+Page+Title> <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

#### 2.3. Export Space

Export all Confluence pages of a single Space:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter space <space-key e.g. MYSPACE> <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

#### 2.3. Export all Spaces

Export all Confluence pages across all spaces:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter all-spaces <output path e.g. ./output_path/>
```

### 3. Output

The exported Markdown file(s) will be saved in the specified `output` directory e.g.:

```sh
output_path/
└── MYSPACE/
   ├── MYSPACE.md
   └── MYSPACE/
      ├── My Confluence Page.md
      └── My Confluence Page/
            ├── My nested Confluence Page.md
            └── Another one.md
```

## Configuration

All configuration and authentication is stored in a single JSON file managed by the application. You do not need to manually edit this file.

### Interactive Configuration

To interactively view and change configuration, run:

```sh
confluence-markdown-exporter config
```

This will open a menu where you can:
- See all config options and their current values
- Select a config to change (including authentication)
- Reset all config to defaults
- Navigate directly to any config section (e.g. `auth.confluence`)

### Available Configuration Options

| Key | Description | Default |
|-----|-------------|---------|
| export.markdown_style | Markdown style: GFM or Obsidian | GFM |
| export.page_path | Path template for exported pages | {space_name}/{homepage_title}/{ancestor_titles}/{page_title}.md |
| export.attachment_path | Path template for attachments | {space_name}/attachments/{attachment_file_id}{attachment_extension} |
| retry_config.backoff_and_retry | Enable automatic retry with exponential backoff | True |
| retry_config.backoff_factor | Multiplier for exponential backoff | 2 |
| retry_config.max_backoff_seconds | Maximum seconds to wait between retries | 60 |
| retry_config.max_backoff_retries | Maximum number of retry attempts | 5 |
| retry_config.retry_status_codes | HTTP status codes that trigger a retry | [413, 429, 502, 503, 504] |
| auth.confluence.url | Confluence instance URL | "" |
| auth.confluence.username | Confluence username/email | "" |
| auth.confluence.api_token | Confluence API token | "" |
| auth.confluence.pat | Confluence Personal Access Token | "" |
| auth.jira.url | Jira instance URL | "" |
| auth.jira.username | Jira username/email | "" |
| auth.jira.api_token | Jira API token | "" |
| auth.jira.pat | Jira Personal Access Token | "" |

You can always view and change the current config with the interactive menu above.

### Custom Config File Location

By default, configuration is stored in a platform-specific application directory. You can override the config file location by setting the `CME_CONFIG_PATH` environment variable to the desired file path. If set, the application will read and write config from this file instead. Example:

```sh
export CME_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/your/custom_config.json
```

This is useful for using different configs for different environments or for scripting.

## Update

Update python package via pip.

```sh
pip install confluence-markdown-exporter --upgrade
```

## Compatibility

This package is not tested extensively. Please check all output and report any issue [here](https://github.com/Spenhouet/confluence-markdown-exporter/issues).
It generally was tested on:
- Confluence Cloud 1000.0.0-b5426ab8524f (2025-05-28)
- Confluence Server 8.5.20

## Known Issues
1. **Missing Attachment File ID on Server**: For some Confluence Server version/configuration the attachment file ID might not be provided (https://github.com/Spenhouet/confluence-markdown-exporter/issues/39). In the default configuration, this is used for the export path. Solution: Adjust the attachment path in the export config and use the `{attachment_id}` or `{attachment_title}` instead.
2. **Connection Issues when behind Proxy or VPN**: There might be connection issues if your Confluence Server is behind a proxy or VPN (https://github.com/Spenhouet/confluence-markdown-exporter/issues/38). If you experience issues, help to fix this is appreciated.
