NotionHelper

NotionHelper is a Python library that provides a convenient interface for interacting with the Notion API. It simplifies common tasks such as managing databases, pages, and file uploads, allowing you to integrate Notion's powerful features into your applications with ease.

For help constructing the JSON for the properties, use the Notion API - JSON Builder Streamlit app.

Features

• Synchronous Operations: Uses notion-client and requests for straightforward API interactions.
• Database Management: Create, query, and retrieve Notion databases.
• Page Operations: Add new pages to databases and append content to existing pages.
• File Handling: Upload files and attach them to pages or page properties.
• Pandas Integration: Convert Notion database pages into a Pandas DataFrame for easy data manipulation.

Installation

To install NotionHelper, you can use pip:

pip install notionhelper

This will also install all the necessary dependencies, including notion-client, pandas, and requests.

Authentication

To use the Notion API, you need to create an integration and obtain an integration token.

1. Create an Integration: Go to My Integrations and create a new integration.
2. Get the Token: Copy the "Internal Integration Token".
3. Share with a Page/Database: For your integration to access a page or database, you must share it with your integration from the "Share" menu in Notion.

It is recommended to store your Notion token as an environment variable for security.

export NOTION_TOKEN="your_secret_token"

Usage

Here is an example of how to use the library:

import os
from notionhelper import NotionHelper

Initialize the NotionHelper class

notion_token = os.getenv("NOTION_TOKEN")

helper = NotionHelper(notion_token)

Retrieve a Database

database_id = "your_database_id"
database_schema = helper.get_database(database_id)
print(database_schema)

Create a New Page in a Database

page_properties = {
    "Name": {
        "title": [
            {
                "text": {
                    "content": "New Page from NotionHelper"
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}
new_page = helper.new_page_to_db(database_id, page_properties)
print(new_page)

Append Content to the New Page

blocks = [
    {
        "object": "block",
        "type": "heading_2",
        "heading_2": {
            "rich_text": [{"type": "text", "text": {"content": "Hello from NotionHelper!"}}]
        }
    },
    {
        "object": "block",
        "type": "paragraph",
        "paragraph": {
            "rich_text": [
                {
                    "type": "text",
                    "text": {
                        "content": "This content was appended synchronously."
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    }
]
helper.append_page_body(page_id, blocks)
print(f"Successfully appended content to page ID: {page_id}")

Get all pages as a Pandas DataFrame

  df = helper.get_all_pages_as_dataframe(database_id)
  print(df.head())

Upload a File and Attach to a Page

file_path = "path/to/your/file.pdf"  # Replace with your file path
upload_response = helper.upload_file(file_path)
file_upload_id = upload_response["id"]
# Replace with your page_id
page_id = "your_page_id"
attach_response = helper.attach_file_to_page(page_id, file_upload_id)
print(f"Successfully uploaded and attached file: {attach_response}")

Simplified File Operations

NotionHelper provides convenient one-step methods that combine file upload and attachment operations:

one_step_image_embed()

Uploads an image and embeds it in a Notion page in a single call, combining what would normally require:

1. Uploading the file
2. Embedding it in the page

page_id = "your_page_id"
image_path = "path/to/image.png"
response = helper.one_step_image_embed(page_id, image_path)
print(f"Successfully embedded image: {response}")

one_step_file_to_page()

Uploads a file and attaches it to a Notion page in one step, combining:

1. Uploading the file
2. Attaching it to the page

page_id = "your_page_id"
file_path = "path/to/document.pdf"
response = helper.one_step_file_to_page(page_id, file_path)
print(f"Successfully attached file: {response}")

one_step_file_to_page_property()

Uploads a file and attaches it to a specific Files & Media property on a page, combining:

1. Uploading the file
2. Attaching it to the page property

page_id = "your_page_id"
property_name = "Files"  # Name of your Files & Media property
file_path = "path/to/document.pdf"
file_name = "Custom Display Name.pdf"  # Optional display name
response = helper.one_step_file_to_page_property(page_id, property_name, file_path, file_name)
print(f"Successfully attached file to property: {response}")

These methods handle all the intermediate steps automatically, making file operations with Notion much simpler.
