Browserslist-rs now uses static data to reduce binary size by over 1MB, improving memory use and performance for Rust-based frontend tools.
Battle tested SSG front matter parser. Extracted from DocPad. Delimiter lines have 3+ of the same character (such as `/***` and `***/`) allowing front matters to work with the syntax highlighting of your code editor. Supports custom parsers, e.g. `--- cso
Battle tested SSG front matter parser. Extracted from DocPad. Delimiter lines have 3+ of the same character (such as /***
and ***/
) allowing front matters to work with the syntax highlighting of your code editor. Supports custom parsers, e.g. --- cson
. Parsers are handled externally.
docmatter is designed to be functional yet minimal, default parser as well as parsing of the headers are handled by you
const docmatter = require('docmatter')
const yamljs = require('yamljs')
function parse (input) {
const matter = docmatter(input)
// if no front matter: {content}
if (!matter.header) return { content: matter.content.trim() }
// if front matter: {delimiter, parser, header, body, content}
let data = null
switch (matter.parser) {
case 'json':
if (matter.header[0] === '{' && matter.header[matter.header.length - 1] === '}') {
data = JSON.parse(matter.header)
}
else {
data = JSON.parse(`{${matter.header}}`)
}
break;
case 'yaml':
default:
data = yamljs.parse(
matter.header.replace(/\t/g, ' ') // YAML doesn't support tabs that well
)
break;
}
return { data, content: matter.body.trim() }
}
// no content and only front matter
console.log(parse(`
---
title: Hello World
---
`))
// => { data: { title: 'Hello World' }, content: '' }
// markdown content with default front matter
console.log(parse(`
---
title: Hello World
---
**hello world**
`))
// => { data: { title: 'Hello World' }, content: '**hello world**' }
// markdown content with json front matter
console.log(parse(`
--- json
"title": "Hello World"
---
**hello world**
`))
// => { data: { title: 'Hello World' }, content: '**hello world**' }
// markdown content with no front matter
console.log(parse(`
**hello world**
`))
// => { content: '**hello world**' }
// javascript content with default front matter
console.log(parse(`
