Notion

Import a Notion database with the notion() source — rows become pages, properties become frontmatter, and blocks become Blume components.

The built-in notion() adapter turns a Notion database into a collection: each row becomes a page, its properties become frontmatter, and its block tree becomes MDX. Callouts, toggles, columns, and code blocks map to the matching Blume components, and the text you type in Notion renders as written: a {, <, or Markdown character in a page is escaped rather than read as MDX, JSX, or formatting. Video blocks become a <YouTube> embed when they hold a YouTube link and a <video> player otherwise, with the block’s caption as a <Frame> caption either way. A link to a video page rather than a media file (a Vimeo or Loom URL, say) is reported as a build warning, and its <video> player keeps pointing at the page, which it can’t play — link to that video from the text instead. The adapter declares @notionhq/client (v5 or later) as its runtime dependency — an optional peer; Blume reads the database through its first data source.

import { defineConfig } from "blume";
import { filesystem, notion } from "blume/sources";

export default defineConfig({
  content: {
    sources: [
      filesystem({ root: "docs" }),
      notion({
        prefix: "handbook",
        database: "8f2c1e0a4b7d4f3c9e6a5d2b1c0f9e8d", // the id in the database URL
        // Property names default to the title-typed prop / Description / Slug / Order / Status
        // Pages whose Status isn't publishedValue (default "Published") import as drafts
        publishedValue: "Done",
      }),
    ],
  },
});

The integration token comes from the NOTION_TOKEN environment variable (share the database with your integration); the adapter declares it, so a build without it warns.

The Status property is a publish gate by default. A page whose Status (a status or select property) holds any value other than publishedValue, which defaults to Published, imports with draft: true, and production builds drop drafts. A page with no Status value is published, and a database without the property publishes every page. Notion’s default status options are Not started, In progress, and Done, so a database that uses them has no Published value and publishes nothing until you set publishedValue: "Done" (or whichever option means published). properties.status names a differently named property; to import every page whatever its status, point it at a property the database doesn’t have.

Notion image and video URLs are signed and expire, so the adapter downloads them at build time into the site’s assets and rewrites the references — a CMS asset never rots a static build. Only a file the server reports as an image or video is saved (or, when the response doesn’t say, one whose URL names an image or video extension); anything else keeps its original URL with a build warning, so nothing but media is ever served from your site’s origin. API calls are paced through a small request pool (3 at a time, matching Notion’s per-integration rate limit) so databases with hundreds of pages import without tripping 429 responses; set concurrency on the source to tune it.
