Development

Clone the repo and cd into it

git clone https://github.com/dragonman225/nast.git && cd nast

Install dependencies

  • yarn (required)

    npm i -g yarn

    We use yarn to manage package dependencies.

  • lerna (required)

    This project is a monorepo managed with lerna. If you haven't heard of it before, this tutorial is a good starting point.

  • typedoc (optional)

    npm i -g typedoc

    typedoc needs to be available in the command-line for reference document generation.

  • Graphviz (optional)

    # For Arch Linux
    pacman -S graphviz
    
    # For macOS via Homebrew
    brew install graphviz 

    dot needs to available in the command-line for dependency graph generation.

Setup the project

yarn # Install and link dependencies
npx lerna run build # Build all packages

Testing

  • Test the overall functionality with npdl.

    Download a Notion page and render it to HTML. Use the CSS theme at packages/nast-util-to-react/src/theme.css.

    node packages/npdl/index.js -i=<notion_page_url> output.html

    Use an external theme.

    node packages/npdl/index.js -i=<notion_page_url> --theme=<path_to_css> output.html

    Just download a Notion page without rendering to HTML.

    node packages/npdl/index.js -i=<notion_page_url> --tree output.json

    npdl has more features, which can be listed with

    node packages/npdl/index.js

    You can also install npdl globally.

    cd packages/npdl && npm i -g .
  • Each package may have its own test suite, which is not covered here.

Troubleshooting

  • npx nx graph to check if the packages are correctly linked.
    • If a package is published with a new version, don't forget to update other packages that are using it.
