Unset date property

[chapterjason]

Currently, it isn't possible to unset a date property.
Making it a pointer works.

notionapi/property.go

Line 110 in 24b668e

Date DateObject `json:"date"`

I've created a small workaround that works:

type EmptyDateProperty struct {
	ID   notionapi.ObjectID     `json:"id,omitempty"`
	Type notionapi.PropertyType `json:"type,omitempty"`
	Date *notionapi.DateObject  `json:"date"`
}

func (p EmptyDateProperty) GetType() notionapi.PropertyType {
	return p.Type
}

// [...]

updates["Completed At"] = &EmptyDateProperty{
    ID:   completedAtProperty.ID,
    Type: completedAtProperty.Type,
    Date: nil,
}

// [...]

Hi, @chapterjason !
Could you please provide an example use case where EmptyProperty is needed?

Hey @jomei

Sure,, I have a small task board with the following properties

• Choice State with the values Blocked, In Progress and Done
• Date Completed At

I've built a daemon which sets makest the following changes:

• if state == "Done" && completedAt == nil set Completed At to now
• if state != "Done" && completedAt != nil set Completed At to empty or clear as it is called in the UI of notion.
