parser-front-matter
Front matter parsing middleware based on gray-matter.
Install
Install with npm:
$ npm install --save parser-front-matter
This is similar to a consolidate.js engine, but for parsing. Works with assemble, verb, generate, update, express.js, parser-cache, or any application with similar conventions.
Usage
var parser = require('parser-front-matter');
API
Parse front matter from the given string or the contents
in the given file
and callback next(err, file)
.
If an object is passed, either file.contents
or file.content
may be used (for gulp and assemble compatibility).
Params
file
{String|Object}: The object or string to parse.options
{Object|Function}: or next
callback function. Options are passed to gray-matter.next
{Function}: callback function.
Example
parser.parse('---\ntitle: foo\n---\nbar', function (err, file) {
});
var file = {contents: new Buffer('---\ntitle: foo\nbar')};
parser.parse(file, function(err, res) {
});

Params

{Object}: passed to gray-matter.
Example
var res = parser.parseSync('---\ntitle: foo\n---\nbar');
var file = {contents: new Buffer('---\ntitle: foo\nbar')};
var res = parser.parseSync(file);
file object
Returned file
objects have the following properties (no other properties are modified on the given file):
data

: the content string, excluding front-matter (assemble compatibility)contents
: the content string as a buffer, excluding front-matterorig
