notion-sdk-typescript-starter

This is a template repository for getting started with the Notion SDK and TypeScript.

To use this template, click the big green "Use this template" button in the upper-right corner. After some questions, GitHub will create a new clone under your account, and then you can get started customizing.

Features

  • TypeScript for type checking.
  • Prettier for code formatting.
  • A minimal GitHub Actions workflow that typechecks your code.
  • Dotenv for configuring your Notion API token.
  • Dependabot for ensuring your (and this template's!) dependencies are up to date.
  • Our lovely Notion SDK!

What to do after duplicating

  1. Make sure you've created a Notion integration and have a secret Notion token.
  2. Add your Notion token to a .env file at the root of this repository: echo "NOTION_TOKEN=[your token here]" > .env.
  3. Run npm install.
  4. Edit the database_id in index.ts from FIXME to be any database currently shared with your integration.
  5. Run npm start to run the script.

Now you can head over to our developer documentation for more information on using the Notion API!

NPM Scripts

This template has a few built-in NPM scripts:

Script Action
npm start Run index.ts.
npm run typecheck Type check using the TypeScript compiler.
npm run format Format using Prettier (also recommended: the Prettier VS Code extension if you're using VS code.)
npm run build Build JavaScript into the dist/ directory. You normally shouldn't need this if you're using npm start.
