Working with Databases 🔥

import asyncio
from notionary import NotionDatabase

async def main():
  # Connect to database by name (fuzzy matching)
  db = await NotionDatabase.from_database_name("Projects")

  # Create a new page with properties
  page = await db.create_blank_page()
  await page.set_title("🆕 New Project Entry")
  await page.set_property_value_by_name("Status", "In Progress")
  await page.set_property_value_by_name("Priority", "High")
  
  # find pages created in the last 7 days
  count = 0
  async for page in db.iter_pages_with_filter(
      db.create_filter().with_created_last_n_days(7)
  ):
      count += 1
      print(f"{count:2d}. {page.emoji_icon or '📄'} {page.title}")

asyncio.run(main())

Custom Markdown Syntax

Notionary extends standard Markdown with special syntax to support Notion-specific features:

Text Formatting

• Standard: **bold**, *italic*, ~~strikethrough~~, `code`
• Links: [text](url)
• Quotes: > This is a quote
• Divider: ---

Callouts

!> [💡] This is a default callout with the light bulb emoji  
!> [🔔] This is a notification with a bell emoji  
!> [⚠️] Warning: This is an important note

Toggles

+++ How to use Notionary
| 1. Initialize with NotionPage  
| 2. Update metadata with set_title(), set_emoji_icon(), etc.  
| 3. Add content with replace_content() or append_markdown()
