notion_scheduler

This tool allows the creation of---drumroll---recurring tasks in Notion!

This is done by defining a Notion database (which I will call the Scheduled database) that contains rules for recurring tasks. This tool reads these definitions and creates each occurrence of those tasks in your actual tasks database (which I will call the Tasks database).

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible if this tool causes any data loss in your Notion database. Always back up your data!

Installation

pip3 install notion-scheduler
notion_scheduler -h

You can also run this from source by installing all the requirements (see requirements.txt) and running ./notion_scheduler.py -h.

Tip: the --dry-run --log-level=verbose option set can be really useful to see what will happen before applying changes.

Fields required in the Scheduled database

The fields below are case insensitive.

Name of field Type of field Description
Title Text The title of the task
Recurrence Text The recurrence rule for the task (see recurrent for supported rules)
Not on Text A recurrent rule that describes dates to exclude
Start date Date The date from which notion_scheduler should start creating this task
Include time Checkbox Whether to include time in the created tasks (defined in the Recurrence field)
Duration Text If "Include time", how long should each created task last (see durations for syntax)? Empty means no end time.
Reminder Text A durations rule that describes when you should be reminded. Empty means no reminder.
Date field Text or Select The name of the date field of the Tasks database

Any additional fields defined in the Scheduled database will be copied over to each created task, as defined in the properties_to_sync configuration option (see below).

Configuration

The configuration file is located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/notion_scheduler/config.yml.

Options

The options below should be in YAML format in the configuration file.

Name of option Type Description
todo_collection_url str The url of the Tasks database.
scheduled_collection_url str The url of the Scheduled database.
token_v2 str Notion v2 token. Get by inspecting your browser's cookies on a Notion page.
properties_to_sync List[str] Additional properties to sync over from the Scheduled database.
tags_property str The Select field named by this option for which to add the tag scheduled_tag for each created task.
scheduled_tag str The tag to put in tags_property for each created task. Allows notion_scheduler to keep track of which tasks in the Tasks database it has generated, so that it can replace them with the updated ones on every run.
rescheduled_tag str If you ever manually reschedule a scheduled task in the Tasks database, remove the tag scheduled_tag from the field tags_property, and add the tag defined by this option. This allows control over which tasks notion_scheduler deletes on re-run (see command-line options).
status_property Optional[str] If this exists, set the Select field named by this option to status_before_today if a created task is scheduled for before today, or status_after_today if a created task is scheduled for on or after today.
status_before_today str See status_property
status_after_today str See status_property
