cleanup-notion.sh
does the following:
-
Removes UUID (Universally Unique Identifier), i.e., space + 32-digit alphanumeric characters, from filenames and directory names and their references in
*.md
and*.csv
contents. -
make
failed.txt
which contains the list of files and directories that failed to be renamed. -
(Need to uncomment
replace_space
) Replace%20
with_
in filenames and directory names and their references in*.md
and*.csv
contents.main() { remove_UUID # replace_space notice }
- Since the script is supposed to be run on MacOS, you may need to modify something if you gonna run it on a different OS.
- Please make a copy of your Exported directory before executing this script just in case!
- You might have files or directories with the same name except UUID in the same directory, in that case, their links in
.md
files won't work after executing the script. I recommend that you rename those files before exporting from notion.
-
Make sure you have installed
rename
:brew install rename
-
Put the unzipped notion backup as follows;
cleanup-notion | |-- cleanup-notion.sh |-- Export-...
-
Then, run the script:
sh cleanup-notion.sh
