Usage

Sync Version

from notion_client import Client
from notion_to_md import NotionToMarkdown


notion = Client(auth="your-auth-token")

n2m = NotionToMarkdown(notion)

# Export a page as a markdown blocks
md_blocks = n2m.page_to_markdown("page-id")

# Convert markdown blocks to string
md_str = n2m.to_markdown_string(md_blocks).get('parent')

# Write to a file
with open("output.md", "w") as f:
    f.write(md_str)

Async Version

import asyncio
from notion_client import AsyncClient
from notion_to_md import NotionToMarkdownAsync


notion = AsyncClient(auth="your-auth-token")

n2m = NotionToMarkdownAsync(notion)

# Export a page as a markdown blocks
md_blocks = asyncio.run(n2m.page_to_markdown("page-id"))

# Convert markdown blocks to string
md_str = n2m.to_markdown_string(md_blocks).get('parent')

# Write to a file
with open("output.md", "w") as f:
    f.write(md_str)
