blog-loader

Create a simple blog from markdown files with Webpack!

blog-loader is a Webpack loader that imports markdown files with yaml-frontmatter, and returns formatted HTML and meta data from the frontmatter.

Usage

Add the webpack loader:

    {
        test: /blog\/.*md/,
        loader: "blog-loader",
        query: {
            // Required keys in the frontmatter
            required: [ 'author', 'category', 'date', 'title'],
            // Where to save the markdown files, if at all.
            name: 'blog/[name].[ext]'
        }
    },

And start writing markdown files:

---
Author: Assertible
Title: "`blog-loader` for Webpack"
Category: Cool stuff
Date: 2018-09-14
---

This is getting recursive.

Then import them:

import blogPost from './blogPost.md'

console.log(blogPost)
 => { title: ..., author: ..., category: ..., date: ..., content: "This is getting recursive." }

That's it!
