Text Modification For Notion

This repository contain some module & functions that can be useful to automate process on editing text that will be pasted on Notion (a productivity app).

Description

Notion is a freemium productivity and note-taking web application developed by Notion Labs Inc. It offers organizational tools including task management, project tracking, to-do lists, bookmarking, and more.

But there is a problem with Notioin. Often we want to paste text from a text editor into the Notion app but we get bad formatting when the text is pasted. For example when we want to paste a list that we separate each item with a new line like this:

list_item1
list_item2
list_item3

When we paste it directly into the notion, the list will gather into a block of text, like this:

1

This is an unwanted condition for us. So the solution to this problem is to add several characters, for example by adding a bullet at the beginning of each item, like following:

- list_item1
- list_item2
- list_item3

The result on notion will be like this:

But it would be very tiring if we add bullets one by one for each item manually. Therefore it is necessary to do automation.
