# @openstapps/api-cli To get some data into a local `backend-node`-instance, you can run this as a standalone program to copy data of a remote `backend-node`-instance into your local one. Example to copy all Events of the b-tu instance: ```shell npm install npm run build node ./lib/cli.js copy Event https://stappsbe01.innocampus.tu-berlin.de http://localhost:3000 100 ``` Example to index all items from @openstapps/core test files to a backend: ```shell npm install npm run build node ./lib/cli.js e2e http://localhost:3000 ``` Example to clone the full database ```shell node app.js copy "*" https://mobile.app.uni-frankfurt.de http://localhost:3000 100 ``` ### Program arguments ```shell node ./lib/cli.js copy node ./lib/cli.js e2e ``` #### Options The source identifier for the bulk to use with the target instance (default is 'copy') ```shell -s, --bulkSource ``` The App version to use (unset by default) ```shell -a, --appVersion ``` The only available option for `e2e` command. File path to json test files each containing a SCThing. ```shell -s, --samples ``` ### Example execution with docker when backend is running on `localhost:3000`: ```shell docker run --net=host registry.gitlab.com/openstapps/api/cli copy Place https://stappsbe01.innocampus.tu-berlin.de http://localhost:3000 100 ``` Or using `e2e` command: ```shell docker run --net=host registry.gitlab.com/openstapps/api/cli e2e http://localhost:3000 ```
