Migrate Squarespace XML

Squarespace has a migration path via WordPress which results in a xml with all content. This tool processes that XML file, and generates a zip file you can import into a Ghost installation.

Install

To install the CLI, which is required for the Usage commands below:

npm install --global @tryghost/migrate

To use this package in your own project:

npm install @tryghost/mg-squarespace-xml --save

or

yarn add @tryghost/mg-squarespace-xml

Usage

To run a Squarespace migration, the required command is:

migrate squarespace --pathToFile /path/to/file.xml

It's possible to pass more options, in order to achieve a better migration file for Ghost:

  • --pathToFile (required)
    • Path to xml file
    • string - default: null
  • -V --verbose
    • bool - default: false
    • Show verbose output
  • --zip
    • bool - default: true
    • Create a zip file
  • -s --scrape
    • Configure scraping tasks
    • string - default: all
    • Choices: all, img, web, media, files, none
  • --sizeLimit
    • number - default: false
    • Media files larger than this size (defined in MB [i.e. 5]) will be flagged as oversize
  • --drafts
    • bool - default: true
    • Import draft posts
  • --posts
    • bool - default: true
    • Import Squarespace posts
  • --pages
    • bool - default: false
    • Import Squarespace pages
  • --tags
    • bool - default: true
    • Set to false if you don't want to import WordPress tags, only categories
  • --addTag
    • string - default: null
    • Provide a tag name which should be added to every post in this migration
  • --fallBackHTMLCard
    • bool - default: true
    • Fall back to convert to HTMLCard, if standard Mobiledoc convert fails
  • --cache
    • Persist local cache after migration is complete (Only if --zip is true)
    • bool - default: true

A more complex migration command could look like this:

migrate squarespace --pathToFile /path/to/file.xml --pages true --addTag News
