Common Code Examples

1. Create Page and Add Content

// 创建新页面
const page = await createPage({
  parent: {
    type: "page_id",
    page_id: "parent_page_id"
  },

  }
});

2. Database Operations

// 创建数据库

    type: "page_id",
    page_id: "parent_page_id"
  },
  title: [
    {
      type: "text",
      text: {
        content: "项目管理数据库"
      }
    }
  ],
  properties: {
    "任务名称": {
      title: {}
    },
    "状态": {
      select: {
        options: [
          { name: "待办", color: "gray" },
          { name: "进行中", color: "blue" },
          { name: "已完成", color: "green" }
        ]
      }
    },
    "负责人": {
      people: {}
    },
    "截止日期": {
      date: {}
    }
  }
});

// 查询数据库记录
const records = await queryDatabase({
  database_id: "database_id",
  filter: {
    property: "状态",
    select: {
      equals: "进行中"
    }
  },
  sorts: [
    {
      property: "截止日期",
      direction: "ascending"
    }
  ]
});

3. Page Search

// 搜索页面
const searchResults = await search({
  query: "项目计划",
  filter: {
    property: "object",
    value: "page"
  },
  sort: {
    direction: "descending",
    timestamp: "last_edited_time"
  }
});

// 搜索数据库
const dbResults = await search({
  query: "任务",
  filter: {
    property: "object",
    value: "database"
  }
});

4. Block Content Update

// 获取页面块
const blocks = await getBlockChildren({
  block_id: "page_id"
});

// 更新块内容
await updateBlock({
  block_id: "block_id",
  paragraph: {
    rich_text: [
      {
        type: "text",
        text: {
          content: "更新后的内容"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
});

// 添加新块
await appendBlockChildren({
  block_id: "parent_block_id",
  children: [
    {
      object: "block",
      type: "heading_2",
      heading_2: {
        rich_text: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: {
              content: "新的章节标题"
            }
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
});

      text: {
        content: "建议在这里添加更多细节描述。"
      }
    }
  ]
});

// 获取评论

  block_id: "page_id"
});

6. Page Movement

// 移动页面到其他父页面
await movePage({
  page_id: "page_id",
  parent: {
    type: "page_id",
    page_id: "new_parent_id"
  }
});

// 或移动到数据库
await movePage({
  page_id: "page_id",
  parent: {
    type: "database_id",
    database_id: "database_id"
  }
});

7. Batch Operations

// 批量创建页面记录
const batchCreate = async (databaseId, records) => {
  for (const record of records) {
    await createPage({
      parent: {
        type: "database_id",
        database_id: databaseId
      },
      properties: {
        "任务名称": {
          title: [{ text: { content: record.title } }]
        },
        "状态": {
          select: { name: record.status }
        }
      }
    });
  }
};

// 批量更新块
const batchUpdate = async (updates) => {
  for (const update of updates) {
    await updateBlock({
      block_id: update.blockId,
      ...update.content
    });
  }
};

8. Users and Permissions
