Script to Make Pages

I find it easier to make page json if I add the Item ids and Journal Actions once I have the Title and Story done. This example makes a bunch of map pages using this technique with no external dependents. github

An export file contains keys-value pairs where the keys are page slugs and the values are page json. We'll look at one by exporting about.fed.wiki, a small site. export

We will code our example in Deno as a script we will run at the command line. We will post the script and the export file it produces as assets on this page. Click to download either. Install Deno to run the script yourself. deno

It is unusual to fork the ghost page that offers to import exported pages. I have done so here so that you can more easily view the script results.

Since ES6 variables are preferably declared with let or const rather than the traditional var. Const means only that a variable won't be reassigned in the current scope, not that the objects it holds won't vary. Deno's lint prefers const over let so we will go along.
