How can I customize an instruction to import my own courses? Similar to tutor local importdemocourse, I can establish a similar course information warehouse on GitHub

You can use the [`import` management command](https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/blob/9e08c5e3d2d80d2da34240862aaa7193ea9fcbe4/cms/djangoapps/contentstore/management/commands/import.py) to import courses through the CLI.

```nohighlight
./manage.py cms import /path/to/your/course/exports

```
