Hi all!

I struggle make this tool running. I have my vars set inside .bash-profile

export ATLASSIAN_PAT="xxxxx"
export ATLASSIAN_URL="xxxxxx"

but I still receive this error

extrdose$ sudo confluence-markdown-exporter all-spaces /Users/extrdose/Documents/Wikis

Within the same CLI you are starting the tool in, can you run the following to verify that the env vars are available?

echo $ATLASSIAN_URL
echo $ATLASSIAN_PAT

[RSDosev]

Thank you for the fast reply. I really like the repo. Hopefully I will get it sorted

[Spenhouet]

When you use sudo, it does not load your user's shell environment (like ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc, etc.). So any environment variables defined there are not available under sudo.

You can see this by executing (there should be no output):

sudo bash -c 'echo $ATLASSIAN_URL'
sudo bash -c 'echo $ATLASSIAN_PAT'

Use sudo -E to preserve the env, see:

sudo -E bash -c 'echo $ATLASSIAN_URL'
sudo -E bash -c 'echo $ATLASSIAN_PAT'

You should be able to execute via:

sudo -E confluence-markdown-exporter all-spaces /Users/extrdose/Documents/Wikis

BUT I'd question why you need to do this via sudo. Maybe you can just execute without sudo.

[RSDosev]

You are right. I dont need sudo for this. I used it because without it the app stucks and there is nothing saved in the Users/extrdose/Documents/Wikis dir

[Spenhouet]

And with sudo it is not stuck?

[RSDosev]

With sudo I get the errors. With sudo -E it is stuck again

[RSDosev]

Even changed python version to 3.10 (was with 3.13 till now). Still stucks. Could it be because I use Confluence 9.2.4?

[Spenhouet]

You don't need sudo. So it being stuck is an issue.

Can you try just downloading a single page first:

confluence-markdown-exporter page <page-id>

Does that work or also stuck?

[RSDosev]

it stucks to all commands, scope, page...all of them

[Spenhouet]

How long did you wait with it being stuck?
Right now my best guess is that the it's a connection issue to your Confluence server and that "stuck" is the retry cycle.

[RSDosev]

I wait alot. Can the issue be that the confluence is accessible only through VPN?

[RSDosev]

Thank you for your patience and support. I think I spent enough time on this. I will do my agent using the confluence API and https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown tool. Wish you all the best, mate!

[Spenhouet]

@RSDosev Sorry to hear that you couldn't resolve your issue and sorry that I couldn't be of more help. Markitdown is a cool project. I hope it helps.
