# confluence.md

Push markdown files straight to a Confluence page.

## What it does?

`confluence.md` allows you to push any markdown file to Confluence. You can create
a new page (under given parent) or update an existing one.

## How to install?

It's as easy as:

```sh
$ pip install confluence.md

# If the above doesn't work, your `pip` command points to different
# python than installation than `python` command. If so, run:
$ python -m pip install confluence.md
```

## How to use it in command-line?

Markdown to Confluence

Example workflow:

#### 1. Create page

Create a new page under `--parent_id`:
```sh
$ confluence.md --user [email protected] \ # Atlassian username
--token 9a8dsadsh \ # API token or --password
--url https://your-domain.atlassian.net \ # Confluence instance URL
create \ # create or update
--file README.md \ # markdown file
--parent_id 182371 \ # parent page
--title "new title" # title for a new page
--add_meta # adds meta to source.md file
```

#### 2. Verify markdown

The page is created and the file is decorated with metadata:

```sh
$ head -n 3 markdown.md
---
confluence-url: https://your-domain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SP/pages/18237182/new+title
---
```

#### 3. Update page

Performing an update does not require providing `--page_id` and `--url`:

```sh
$ confluence.md --user [email protected] --token 9a8dsadsh update --file README.md
```

Doing an update with `--page_id` and `--url` is still possible.

Consider adding useful `--add_info` option.

## How to use it in a Python script?

ConfluenceMD wasn't designed to be used this way, but it's fairly simple to embed
it in a Python script. See this example:

```python
from md2cf.utils.confluencemd import ConfluenceMD

conf_md = ConfluenceMD(username=user,
md_file=md_file,
token=token,
url=url,
convert_jira=convert_jira)

# create new page under parent_id
new_page_id = conf_md.create_new("parent_id", "title")

# update existing page with given page_id
page_id = conf_md.update_existing("page_id")
```
