Rotion is a set of components and tools that utilize the Notion API and React to generate a static website from your Notion databases and pages.
It is designed primarily for use with Next.js (or other React frameworks) and stores images and other files locally, so that you can build a fully static site.

Official site: https://rotion.linyo.ws

Features

• Fetch and convert Notion databases and pages into static site data via the Notion API.
• Local storage of images, PDFs, and other files.
• Rich React components (Gallery, Table, List, Page, and various Blocks).
• Compatible with static site generators such as Next.js.
• Next.js App Router support with createClientLink helper (v2.0.1+).
• Next.js Page Router support for traditional SSG workflows.
• TypeScript support.

Installation

npm install rotion

or

yarn add rotion

Usage

1. Set Up Notion API

Create a Notion integration and obtain your API key and database ID:

1. Go to Notion Integrations
2. Create a new integration
3. Copy the integration token
4. Share your Notion pages/databases with the integration
5. Copy the page/database IDs from their URLs

2. Export Data

Use the APIs under rotion to fetch data from Notion:

import { FetchDatabase, FetchBlocks, FetchPage } from 'rotion'

// Fetch a database
const db = await FetchDatabase({ database_id: 'YOUR_DATABASE_ID' })

// Fetch page blocks
const blocks = await FetchBlocks({ block_id: 'YOUR_PAGE_ID' })

// Fetch page information
const page = await FetchPage({ page_id: 'YOUR_PAGE_ID' })

3. Render with React Components

Next.js App Router (v15+)

For Next.js App Router, you need to set up the createClientLink helper:

Step 1: Create app/lib/rotion.ts:

'use client'

import { createClientLink } from 'rotion/ui'
import NextLink from 'next/link'

export const ClientLink = createClientLink(NextLink)

Step 2: Use in your Server Components:

// app/page.tsx
import { Page } from 'rotion/ui'
import { FetchBlocks } from 'rotion'
import { ClientLink } from './lib/rotion'
import type { Link } from 'rotion/ui'

export default async function MyPage() {
  const blocks = await FetchBlocks({ block_id: 'YOUR_PAGE_ID' })
  return <Page blocks={blocks} link={ClientLink as Link} />
}

Next.js Page Router

For Page Router, you can use Next.js Link directly:

// pages/index.tsx
import type { GetStaticProps } from 'next'
import { Page } from 'rotion/ui'
import { FetchBlocks } from 'rotion'
import NextLink from 'next/link'

export const getStaticProps: GetStaticProps = async () => {
  const blocks = await FetchBlocks({ block_id: 'YOUR_PAGE_ID' })
  return { props: { blocks } }
}

export default function MyPage({ blocks }) {
  return <Page blocks={blocks} link={NextLink} />
}

Database Views

Display Notion databases in different formats:

import { Gallery, Table, List } from 'rotion/ui'
import { FetchDatabase } from 'rotion'

const db = await FetchDatabase({ database_id: 'YOUR_DATABASE_ID' })

// Gallery view
<Gallery db={db} keys={['Name', 'Description', 'Image']} />

// Table view
<Table db={db} keys={['Name', 'Status', 'Date']} />

// List view
<List db={db} keys={['Name', 'Tags']} />

Examples

The examples/ directory contains complete working examples demonstrating Notion database integration.

Database Setup

All examples require a Notion database with the following properties:

Property Name	Property Type
Title	title
Tags	multi_select
Date	date

nextjs-approuter

Next.js App Router example with database support:

• Database table view on the index page
• Dynamic [id] routes for individual articles
• Server Components with generateStaticParams
• CSS Modules for styling

cd examples/nextjs-approuter
cp .env.example .env.local
# Add your NOTION_TOKEN and NOTION_DATABASE_ID
npm install
npm run dev

nextjs-pagerouter

Next.js Pages Router example with database support:

• Database table view using getStaticProps
• Dynamic [id] routes with getStaticPaths
• Traditional SSG workflow

cd examples/nextjs-pagerouter
cp .env.example .env.local
# Add your NOTION_TOKEN and NOTION_DATABASE_ID
npm install
npm run dev

astro

Astro example with database support:

• Database table view in .astro files
• Dynamic routes with getStaticPaths
• React components with client:load

cd examples/astro
cp .env.example .env
# Add your NOTION_TOKEN and NOTION_DATABASE_ID
npm install
npm run dev

Each example demonstrates:

• Database table view displaying all three properties
• Individual article pages with full content
• Navigation between database and article views

Scripts

• npm run build – Build.
• npm run test – Run tests.
• npm run story – Launch Storybook.

Requirements
