This package is package is no longer maintained. I stopped using Notion.so some time ago and switched to Obsidian due to persistant problems with then Notion API.
An importer for Markdown files to Notion.so using notion-py
It provides these features over Notion.so's Markdown importer:
- Picking a Notion.so page to upload to (instead of them all uploading to the root)
- Code fences keep their original language (or as close as we can match it)
- Code fences are formatted properly
- Inline HTML is preserved
- (Optionally) Upload images that are memtioned in the HTML
<img>tags. - Markdown frontmatter is preserved
- Local image references will be uploaded from relative URLs
- Image alts are loaded as captions instead of as
TextBlocks - Handles nested lists properly
- Among other improvements...
Supports Python 3.6+
pip install md2notion- Then run like
python -m md2notion [token_v2] [page-url] [...markdown_path_glob_or_url] - The markdown at the given path will be added as a new child to the Notion.so note at
page-url
There are also some configuration options:
--clear-previous: If a child of the note atpage-urlhas the same name as what you're uploading, it will first be removed.--append: Instead of making a new child, it will append the markdown contents to the note atpage-url--html-img: Upload images that are memtioned in the HTML<img>tags.
pip install md2notion- In your Python file:
from notion.client import NotionClient
from notion.block import PageBlock
from md2notion.upload import upload
# Follow the instructions at https://github.com/jamalex/notion-py#quickstart to setup Notion.py
client = NotionClient(token_v2="<token_v2>")
page = client.get_block("https://www.notion.so/myorg/Test-c0d20a71c0944985ae96e661ccc99821")
with open("TestMarkdown.md", "r", encoding="utf-8") as mdFile:
newPage = page.children.add_new(PageBlock, title="TestMarkdown Upload")
upload(mdFile, newPage) #Appends the converted contents of TestMarkdown.md to newPageIf you need to process notion-py block descriptors after parsing from Markdown but before uploading, consider using convert and uploadBlock separately. Take a look at upload.py#upload() for more.
from md2notion.upload import convert, uploadBlock
rendered = convert(mdFile)
# Process the rendered array of `notion-py` block descriptors here
# (just dicts with some properties to pass to `notion-py`)
# Upload all the blocks
for blockDescriptor in rendered:
uploadBlock(blockDescriptor, page, mdFile.name)If you need to parse Markdown differently from the default, consider subclassing NotionPyRenderer (a BaseRenderer for mistletoe). You can then pass it to upload(..., notionPyRendererCls=NotionPyRenderer) as a parameter.
Here's an example that imports a Hexo blog (slghtly hacky).
import io
import os.path
import glob
from pathlib import Path
from notion.block import PageBlock
from notion.client import NotionClient
from md2notion.upload import upload
client = NotionClient(token_v2="<token_v2>")
page = client.get_block("https://www.notion.so/myorg/Test-c0d20a71c0944985ae96e661ccc99821")
for fp in glob.glob("../source/_posts/*.md", recursive=True):
with open(fp, "r", encoding="utf-8") as mdFile:
#Preprocess the Markdown frontmatter into yaml code fences
mdStr = mdFile.read()
mdChunks = mdStr.split("---")
mdStr = \
f"""```yaml
{mdChunks[1]}
`` `
{'---'.join(mdChunks[2:])}
"""
mdFile = io.StringIO(mdStr)
mdFile.__dict__["name"] = fp #Set this so we can resolve images later
pageName = os.path.basename(fp)[:40]
newPage = page.children.add_new(PageBlock, title=pageName)
print(f"Uploading {fp} to Notion.so at page {pageName}")
#Get the image relative to the markdown file in the flavor that Hexo
#stores its images (in a folder with the same name as the md file)
def convertImagePath(imagePath, mdFilePath):
return Path(mdFilePath).parent / Path(mdFilePath).stem / Path(imagePath)
upload(mdFile, newPage, imagePathFunc=convertImagePath)See CONTRIBUTING.md
