Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@1984vc/notion_mdx

CI

A CLI tool to export Notion database pages to MDX files with frontmatter metadata.

Features

  • Export all pages from a Notion database to MDX files
  • Preserves page metadata in frontmatter
  • Maintains Notion content structure using notion-to-md
  • Generates clean filenames from page titles
  • Includes creation and last edited timestamps
  • Supports internal link transformations
  • Optional JSON export for raw data

Prerequisites

  • Node.js >= 14.0.0
  • A Notion integration token
  • Access to the Notion database you want to export

Installation

You can install this CLI tool globally using npm:

npm install -g @1984vc/[email protected]

Or locally in your project:

npm add -D @1984vc/[email protected]

Setup

  1. Create a Notion integration at https://www.notion.so/my-integrations
  2. Copy the integration token
  3. Set the token as an environment variable:
export NOTION_TOKEN=your_integration_token
  1. Share your Notion database with the integration (click 'Share' in Notion and add your integration)

Usage

Export to MDX

notion_mdx export-mdx --id <database_id> -o <output_path> [options]

Options:

  • --id: Required. The Notion database ID
  • -o, --output: Required. The output directory path for MDX files
  • --include-json: Optional. Include raw JSON export in output directory
  • --base-path: Optional. Base path for internal links (e.g., /docs)
  • --no-frontmatter: Optional. Exclude frontmatter from MDX files

Example:

notion_mdx export-mdx --id "123456789abcdef" -o "./content/posts" --base-path "/docs"

Export to JSON

notion_mdx json --id <database_id> -o <output_path>

Options:

  • --id: Required. The Notion database ID
  • -o, --output: Required. The output directory path for JSON file

Example:

notion_mdx json --id "123456789abcdef" -o "./content/data"

Export Raw JSON

notion_mdx raw-json --id <id> [-o <output_path>]

Options:

  • --id: Required. The Notion database or page ID
  • -o, --output: Optional. Output file path (defaults to stdout)

Example:

notion_mdx raw-json --id "123456789abcdef" -o "./data/raw.json"

Finding Your Database ID

The database ID is the part of your Notion database URL after the workspace name and before the question mark:

https://www.notion.so/workspace-name/123456789abcdef?v=...
                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                   This is your database ID

Output Format

Each page is exported as an MDX file with frontmatter metadata:

---
title: Page Title
notionId: page-id
createdAt: 2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z
lastEditedAt: 2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z
weight: 0

CI/CD

This project uses GitHub Actions for continuous integration and deployment:

Continuous Integration

The CI workflow runs automatically on:

  • All pull requests to the main branch
  • All pushes to the main branch

It performs:

  • Installation of dependencies
  • Code linting
  • Test suite execution

Automated Releases

To publish a new version to npm:

  1. Update the version in package.json:
npm version patch  # for bug fixes
npm version minor  # for new features
npm version major  # for breaking changes
  1. Push the new version tag:
git push origin v*

The release workflow will automatically:

  • Run tests
  • Build the package
  • Publish to npm under the @1984vc organization

Note: Publishing requires an NPM_TOKEN secret to be set in the repository's GitHub secrets.

Dependencies

Key dependencies:

  • @notionhq/client: ^2.2.15
  • commander: ^12.1.0
  • notion-to-md: ^3.1.1

Error Handling

The CLI will:

  • Verify the NOTION_TOKEN is set
  • Create the output directory if it doesn't exist
  • Skip and report any pages that fail to export
  • Provide progress feedback during export
