Notion backup

I do not believe to clouds and prefer have local copy of all my data. But Notion is very useful tool with no open source alternatives. This script can backup all data using standard export feature in Notion.

This thing require NodeJS to run.

npm i
mkdir -p data
[email protected] PASSWORD=kek EXPORT_TYPE=both node notion

You can also use Docker image with this scrip and cron

docker run -e [email protected] -e PASSWORD=kek  ivanik/notion-backup

Docker compose file example

version: "3"
services:
  notion-backup:
    image: ivanik/notion-backup
    environment:
      EMAIL: [email protected]
      PASSWORD: n0t1onPa$$w0rd
      EXPORT_TYPE: both # markdown/html/both
      DELETE_OLD: 15 # delete backup after 15 days
    volumes:
      - ./data:/app/data # backup dir
      - ./crontab:/app/crontab # change cron settings (optional)
