Create an API key

Coming Soon.

Configure an existing site

Note: Please make sure you already have an existing site on Blutui before proceeding. Learn how to create a site.

After obtaining an API key its time to pull your first project. Open your preferred terminal and create a new directory, for this example we will create a new project directory:

mkdir project
cd project

Inside the newly created project, it's time to setup a new courier.json configuration file, this config file is used by Blutui Courier to determine what project you are currently in. To create a new courier.json file run:

courier init -H [your-site-handle] -s [your-site-url] -t [your-api-token]

For example:

courier init -H sonic -s sonic.blutui.com -t o03fs...

You should now have a brand new courier.json configuration file. Now you can pull your site code from Blutui, this will allow you to build your site locally. To pull your site code from Blutui, run:

courier pull

You can run courier watch to watch for file changes and automatically sync to with your Blutui site.

TIP: If you use git we recommend adding .courier directory to your .gitignore file.
