# ThinNotionApi
## This package is still under heavy development and things can change at any time.
ThinNotionApi is an Elixir package to easily communicate with the Notion API.
The main objective to provide a simple straight forward way for a person to fetch or update information without a large or complex interface.
## Installation
If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `thin_notion_api` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:thin_notion_api, "~> 0.0.1"}
]
end
```
Next log in to the [Notion Developers](https://developers.notion.com/) site. Visit [My Integrations](https://www.notion.so/my-integrations) and create `New Integration`. After creating your integration, you should now have a `Internal Integration Token` you will use for all your Notion API requests. Make sure to keep this secret private and never leak it because at the moment you cannot regenerate a new one if compromised.
Add your integration token and which [Version of the Notion API](https://developers.notion.com/reference/versioning) you are using (if not provided, it will default to `2021-08-16`) to config/config.exs:
```elixir
config :thin_notion_api, :api_key, System.get_env("NOTION_API_KEY")
config :thin_notion_api, :notion_version, System.get_env("NOTION_VERSION")
```
You are good to go.
## Usage
Retrieve information about a Notion database
```elixir
iex> ThinNotionApi.Databases.retrieve_database(database_id)
{
:ok,
%{...}
}
```
Retrieves a Page object using the ID specified.
Responses contains page properties, not page content. To fetch page content, use the retrieve block children endpoint.
```elixir
iex> ThinNotionApi.Pages.retrieve_page(page_id)
{
:ok,
%{...}
}
```
Find all modules and functions you can use in the [API Reference section](https://hexdocs.pm/thin_notion_api/api-reference.html).
Documentation can be generated with [ExDoc](https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc)
and published on [HexDocs](https://hexdocs.pm). Once published, the docs can
be found at [https://hexdocs.pm/thin_notion_api](https://hexdocs.pm/thin_notion_api).
## Development Progress
TODO:
- [x] Need to start adding tests
- [x] List database query param support
- [x] Query database with options
- [x] Support all Page object actions
- [x] Support all Block actions
- [x] Support all User actions
- [x] Support Search
## Release Process
Validate documentation by generating using following command
```
mix docs
```
You can spin up a quick web server to host documentation if you have node installed by using the following command:
```
npx http-serve doc
```
Ensure version in the `mix.exs` has been properly incremented.
If everything looks good, you can release by running.
```
mix hex.publish
```
