How to write articles

Add mdx file

Add mdx files on the following path contents/***/index.mdx

The *** part will be the slug of the article

Frontmatter

Each articles can have meta info via frontmatter like belows.

---
title: Awesome - Next.js Blog Theme
date: 2021-09-18

category: themes
tags: ["about"]

thumbnail: /images/awesome.png
---

  • category the category of the article, it should be defined on the blog.config.ts
  • related related articles of the article, it should be the article slugs array

Use Notion API Instead of mdx files

Create a database in Notion.

First, let's create a database in Notion. Type /table to create a table block, which will be the database.

Prepare the following properties for the table

  • Page Title of the portfolio
  • Slug Used as the URL to display the portfolio
  • Published Whether to display the portfolio or not
  • Date The date of the portfolio
  • Authors The author of this article
  • Thumbnail Thumbnail of the article
  • Description Brief description of the portfolio
  • Category category of the article

This sample page will help

https://mint-hardware-b22.notion.site/7e9876bd5ca14342aff2608403804a8a?v=25494ae1a48846e7bf6fe31fb699e185

Get Secret Key and Database ID in Notion.

Next, We will obtain the Secret Key and Database ID from Notion.

First, obtain the Secret Key.

To obtain the Secret Key, go to the Notion page, Settings & Members, Integrations, Develop your own integrations, and create a new Integration.

Next, invite the integration you just created to the table you just created.

Click the Share button in the upper right corner of the Notion, and invite the integration you created from Invite in the popover that appears.

Next, obtain the database ID.

The table page has the following URL

https://www.notion.so/*****************?v=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The **************** part is the database ID, so write it down.

Enter the information you have noted in the .env file

NOTION_DATABASE_ID= 
NOTION_TOKEN=

Update Blog Config

In, blog.config.ts, just set notion to use property

  use: "notion", // mdx or notion
