3. Command line option:

   funcli --token your_api_key_here spaces list

Base URL

funcli --base-url http://localhost:3000 spaces list

Get space details

funcli spaces get <space-npi>

Shows space information with hierarchical document structure.

Options:

• -j, --json - Output as JSON

funcli spaces create "Restricted Space" -a restricted

Note: When a space is created, a home document is automatically created for it.

Documents

List documents in a space

funcli documents list <space-npi>

Options:

• -j, --json - Output as JSON

Example:

funcli documents list z2zK66AaEF

Example output:

Documents:

Meeting Notes (abc123)

Get document content

funcli documents get <document-npi>

Retrieves document content in Markdown format.

Options:

• -f, --format <format> - Output format: markdown (default) or json

Example:

# Markdown format (default)
funcli documents get abc123

# JSON format (with metadata)
funcli documents get abc123 --format json

Create a new document

funcli documents create <space-npi> [file]

Creates a new document from a markdown file, Word/OpenOffice file, or stdin. Supports frontmatter for metadata.

Arguments:

• <space-npi> - Space NPI where the document will be created
• [file] - Path to file (optional, reads markdown from stdin if omitted)
  • Markdown files: .md
  • Word/OpenOffice files: .docx, .doc, .odt, .rtf, .txt

Options:

• -p, --parent <npi> - Parent document NPI (for nested documents)
• -t, --title <title> - Document title (overrides frontmatter and filename)

Frontmatter Support:

You can include metadata in your markdown file using YAML frontmatter:

---
title: My Document Title
parentId: abc123
---

# Document content starts here

Title Resolution Priority:

1. CLI option (--title)
2. Frontmatter (title)
3. Filename (without extension)
4. "Untitled" (fallback)

Parent Resolution Priority:

1. CLI option (--parent)
2. Frontmatter (parentId)
3. None (document created at space root)

Examples:

# Create from markdown file (title from frontmatter or filename)
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF my-document.md

# Create from Word document
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF report.docx

# Create from OpenOffice document
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF document.odt

# Create from file with custom title
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF my-document.md --title "Custom Title"

# Create nested document (under parent)
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF child.md --parent abc123

# Create nested Word document
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF section.docx --parent abc123 --title "Section 1"

# Create from stdin (markdown only)
echo "# My Document\n\nContent here" | funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF

# Create from stdin with title
cat document.md | funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF --title "New Document"

Example with frontmatter:

# my-document.md
---
title: API Documentation
parentId: def456
---

# API Reference

This document contains API documentation...

funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF my-document.md
# Creates "API Documentation" as child of def456

Update a document

funcli documents update <document-npi> [file]

Updates an existing document with new markdown content from a file or stdin. This creates a new version of the document while preserving its history.

Arguments:

• <document-npi> - NPI of the document to update
• [file] - Path to markdown file (optional, reads from stdin if omitted)

Frontmatter Support:

The update command supports YAML frontmatter for tags, just like the create command:

---
tags:
  - updated/tag1
  - updated/tag2
---

# Updated content starts here

Note: Tags from frontmatter will replace any existing tags on the document.

Examples:

# Update from file
funcli documents update abc123 updated-content.md

# Update from stdin
echo "# Updated Content\n\nNew text here" | funcli documents update abc123

# Update from stdin (multiline)
cat updated-document.md | funcli documents update abc123

# Update with tags from frontmatter
funcli documents update abc123 document-with-tags.md

Example with frontmatter:

# updated-content.md
---
tags:
  - version/2.0
  - status/reviewed
---

# Updated API Documentation

This document has been updated with new information...

funcli documents update abc123 updated-content.md
# Updates document abc123 and replaces tags with "version/2.0" and "status/reviewed"

Notes:

• Creates a new version of the document (preserves history)
• Updates the document's sync state for real-time collaboration
• Tags from frontmatter replace existing tags
• Does not change document title or hierarchy position

Import documents from directory

funcli documents import <space-npi> <directory>

Imports all markdown files from a directory, maintaining the folder hierarchy as nested documents.

Arguments:

• <space-npi> - Space NPI where documents will be imported
• <directory> - Path to directory containing markdown files

Behavior:

• Recursively traverses the directory
• Creates a document for each subdirectory (using directory name as title)
• Creates a document for each .md file (with full content)
• Maintains parent-child relationships based on folder structure
• Skips non-markdown files (.png, .jpg, .pdf, etc.)
• Processes frontmatter in markdown files

Directory Structure Example:

Notes/
├── README.md
├── Projects/
│   ├── Project A.md
│   └── Project B.md
└── Ideas/
    └── Future Ideas.md

Result: Creates documents with this hierarchy:

• README (root level)
• Projects (root level)
  • Project A (child of Projects)
  • Project B (child of Projects)
• Ideas (root level)
  • Future Ideas (child of Ideas)

Examples:

# Import entire directory
funcli documents import z2zK66AaEF ./my-notes

# Import with relative path
funcli documents import z2zK66AaEF ../documentation

# Import with absolute path
funcli documents import z2zK66AaEF /home/user/Documents/notes

Output:

Starting import from: ./my-notes
Target space: z2zK66AaEF

Import Summary:
✓ Successful: 15
⊘ Skipped: 3
  Total processed: 15

Notes:

• Large directories may take some time to import
• Failed imports will be reported with error details
• Non-markdown files are automatically skipped
• Folder names become document titles
• File names (without .md) become document titles

Examples

Export a document to a file

funcli documents get abc123 > document.md

Create and import documents

# Create a simple document
echo "# My Notes\n\nSome content" | funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF --title "Daily Notes"

# Import an existing markdown file
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF README.md

# Import a Word document
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF report.docx

# Import an OpenOffice document
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF document.odt --title "Important Document"

# Update an existing document
funcli documents update abc123 updated-content.md

# Update from stdin
cat changes.md | funcli documents update abc123

# Create a nested document hierarchy
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF parent.md
# Note the NPI of the created document, then:
funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF child.md --parent <parent-npi>

# Batch import markdown documents
for file in docs/*.md; do
  funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF "$file"
done

# Batch import Word documents
for file in reports/*.docx; do
  funcli documents create z2zK66AaEF "$file"
done

Search for a space and get its documents

# List all spaces and find the one you want
funcli spaces list

# Get documents from that space
funcli documents list EsTSuqOvx-

# Read a specific document
funcli documents get def456

Use with jq for JSON processing

# Get all document titles from a space
funcli documents list z2zK66AaEF --json | jq -r '.[].title'

# Get document with metadata
funcli documents get abc123 --format json | jq '.title, .created_at'

Pipe to other tools

# Convert document to PDF using pandoc
funcli documents get abc123 | pandoc -f markdown -o document.pdf

# Search within document content
funcli documents get abc123 | grep "TODO"
