Maven Central      Snapshots

A Notion API client library for Kotlin and Java.

This library is written in Kotlin Multiplatform and can be used from the JVM (Kotlin and Java), Android, and MacOS native.

Several flavors of the client are available to match your needs:

Usage

1/ Add the dependencies to your project

Gradle based projects

The artifact is hosted on the Maven Central repository.

dependencies {
    implementation("org.jraf:klibnotion:2.0.0")
}

2/ Use the client

The easiest way to see how to use it is to look at the samples:

You can also explore the reference doc.

Get your API key

You will find your Internal Integration Token by following the instructions here.

Instantiate a NotionClient

val notionClient = NotionClient.newInstance(
    ClientConfiguration(
        Authentication(TOKEN)
    )
)

To get other flavors of the client (Java):

  • Blocking: BlockingNotionClient blockingClient = BlockingNotionClientUtils.asBlockingNotionClient(notionClient);
  • Future: FutureNotionClient futureClient = FutureNotionClientUtils.asFutureNotionClient(notionClient);

Use the NotionClient

The client gives access to several API areas:

Each area exposes related APIs, for instance: notionClient.pages.getPage.

Pagination

The APIs that are paginated all follow the same principle:

  • take a Pagination object as a parameter, which defines the page to retrieve
  • return a ResultPage<T> with the result list but also a reference to the next Pagination objects (handy when retrieving several pages).

Content DSL

A small DSL is available on the page creation API, here's an example usage:

heading1("First section")
paragraph("Hello, World!")

heading1("Second section")
paragraph("This paragraph is bold", annotations = Annotations.BOLD) {
    paragraph("Sub paragraph 1")
    paragraph("Sub paragraph 2") {
        paragraph("Sub sub paragraph") {

        }
    }
}

heading2("But then again")
heading3("Actually")
paragraph("That's the case")

heading3("But really")
paragraph(RichTextList().text("This ")
    .text("word", Annotations(color = Color.RED))
    .text(" is red"))

bullet("There's this,")
bullet("there's that,")
bullet("then there's...") {
    paragraph("Will this work?")
}
bullet("indentation?") {
    bullet("indentation? 2") {
        bullet("indentation? 3")
    }
}

number("First")
number("Second") {
    number("Second second")
}
number("Third")

toDo("This one is checked", true)
toDo("This one is not checked", false)

toggle("This is a toggle!") {
    paragraph("This first paragraph is inside the toggle")
    paragraph("This second paragraph is inside the toggle")
    heading3("This too!")
}

OAuth support

  1. Build your NotionClient with a null Authentication.
  2. Use oAuth.getUserPromptUri to get a URI that will prompt users to agree to add your integration to their workspace
  3. After agreeing and upon success, they will be redirected to a specific URI containing a code. Use oAuth.extractCodeAndStateFromRedirectUri to extract the code from this URI.
  4. Exchange the code for an access token using oAuth.getAccessToken
  5. The NotionClient is updated with the token so you can now make authenticated calls. Securely save the token so you can pass it to the authentication next time you build your NotionClient.

See the sample for a working example.

Logging

To log HTTP requests/response, pass a HttpConfiguration to NotionClient.newInstance().

Several levels are available: NONE, INFO, HEADERS, BODY and ALL

Proxy

A proxy can be configured by passing a HttpConfiguration to NotionClient.newInstance().
