The generated [Notion blocks](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block), in JSON format, are intended to be sent to the [Notion API](https://developers.notion.com/docs/getting-started) to create a new page or update an existing one. It's using [thephpleague/commonmark](https://github.com/thephpleague/commonmark) under the hood to parse the Markdown. Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require roelmagdaleno/markdown-to-notion-blocks ``` Size Limits ----------- [](#size-limits) ### Maximum Blocks [](#maximum-blocks) The Notion API only accepts a maximum of 100 blocks per request. So, this package will always return an array, in chunks, of 100 blocks. You'll have to send each chunk to the Notion API separately. ### Text Content [](#text-content) The Notion API only accepts a maximum of 2000 characters per text content. If the text content is more than 2000 characters, the package will split them into multiple rich text objects. ### Rich Text [](#rich-text) The Notion API only accepts a maximum of 100 rich text objects per block. If the rich text objects are more than 100, the package will split them into multiple blocks. Usage ----- [](#usage) This package provides a `MarkdownToNotionBlocks` class that you can use to convert markdown to Notion blocks in JSON or Array format. ### Array [](#array) The `MarkdownToNotionBlocks::array` static method will return the Notion blocks in array format. ``` use RoelMR\MarkdownToNotionBlocks\MarkdownToNotionBlocks; $markdown = '# Hello, world!'; $notionBlocks = MarkdownToNotionBlocks::array($markdown); print_r($notionBlocks); ``` The code above will output the following array: ``` Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [object] => block [type] => heading_1 [heading_1] => Array ( [rich_text] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [type] => text [text] => Array ( [content] => Hello, world! [link] => ) [annotations] => Array ( [bold] => [italic] => [strikethrough] => [underline] => [code] => [color] => default ) ) ) [color] => default [is_toggleable] => ) ) ) ) ``` ### JSON [](#json) The `MarkdownToNotionBlocks::json` static method will return the Notion blocks in JSON format. Note Since the Notion blocks are returned in chunks of 100, the JSON output might not be valid for the Notion API. The JSON output is useful for debugging purposes or send it from the server to the client. ``` use RoelMR\MarkdownToNotionBlocks\MarkdownToNotionBlocks; $markdown = '# Hello, world!'; $notionBlocks = MarkdownToNotionBlocks::json($markdown); echo $notionBlocks; ``` The code above will output the following JSON: ``` [ [ { "object": "block", "type": "heading_1", "heading_1": { "rich_text": [ { "type": "text", "text": { "content": "Hello, world!", "link": null }, "annotations": { "bold": false, "italic": false, "strikethrough": false, "underline": false, "code": false, "color": "default" } } ], "color": "default", "is_toggleable": false } } ] ] ``` Transform Output ---------------- [](#transform-output) If you want to transform the output before sending to the Notion API, you can use the `MarkdownToNotionBlocks::array` method to get the Notion blocks in array format and then apply your transformations. For example, by default each Notion block has a `color` property set to `default`. If you want to change the color of the heading to `red`, you can do the following: ``` use RoelMR\MarkdownToNotionBlocks\MarkdownToNotionBlocks; $markdown = '# Hello, world!'; $notionBlocks = MarkdownToNotionBlocks::array($markdown); $notionBlocks[0]['heading_1']['rich_text'][0]['text']['content'] = 'My heading changed.'; $notionBlocks[0]['heading_1']['color'] = 'red'; echo json_encode($notionBlocks); ``` After applying the transformation, encode the array to JSON and send it to the [Notion API](https://developers.notion.com/docs/getting-started). Supported Notion Blocks ----------------------- [](#supported-notion-blocks) The following Notion blocks are supported by this package: - [Bulleted List](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#bulleted-list-item) - [Callout](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#callout) - [Code](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#code) - [Headings](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#headings) - [Numbered List](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#numbered-list-item) - [Paragraph](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#paragraph) - [Quote](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#quote) - [To do](https://developers.notion.com/reference/block#to-do) Each block support [rich text](https://developers.notion.com/reference/rich-text) properties like bold, italic, strikethrough, underline, and inline code. Example ------- [](#example) The following example shows how to convert a Markdown string to Notion blocks in Array format. ``` use RoelMR\MarkdownToNotionBlocks\MarkdownToNotionBlocks; $markdown = file_get_contents($file_path); $notion_blocks = MarkdownToNotionBlocks::array($markdown); if (!$notion_blocks) { return false; } $notion_db_id = '101c7zs03d0680e6aa1cf27a0e61e8f4'; foreach ($notion_blocks as $notion_block) { append_blocks_to_notion_page($notion_db_id, $notion_block); } ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` ### Health Score 30 — LowBetter than 64% of packages Maintenance39 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity14 Limited adoption so far Community8 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity48 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
