Installation

To install the plugin and add it to your project, run:

> You don't need to run this command if you start Sourcebit using the interactive setup process, as the CLI will install the plugin for you and add it as a dependency to your project.

- As part of a .env file, with the value of the _Env variable_ column separated by the value with an equals sign (e.g. MY_VARIABLE=my-value);
- As a CLI parameter, when running the sourcebit fetch command, using the value of the _Parameter_ column as the name of the parameter (e.g. sourcebit fetch --my-parameter).

📤 Output

This plugin adds normalized entries to the objects data bucket and normalized model objects to the models data bucket.

Limitations

- There's a Sourcebit's limitation that the entry field for an asset can contain just one asset, therefore, only one asset per asset element is supported right now.
- Entry's metadata createdAt contains last_modified value from Delivery API since Delivery API does not contain created at` information.

Release new version

Change version in package.json to 1.2.3 and push a commit with the message Release 1.2.3, the npm-publish action will create a new tag v1.2.3 and publish the package to the npm registry.
