frontmatter v0.0.3

frontmatter

A simple YAML frontmatter parser.

Installation

$ npm install frontmatter

Usage

To parse the YAML frontmatter from a string:

var frontmatter = require('frontmatter');
var parsed = frontmatter(content);

As in Jekyll, the YAML frontmatter should be delimited with triple-dash lines and defined at the beginning. For example:

---
title: Welcome
---

Hello!

In this case, the parsed object would be:

{
  "data": {
    "title": "Welcome"
  },
  "content": "Hello!"
}

For untrusted source, the safeLoad option should be used:

frontmatter(content, { safeLoad: true });

Tests

$ npm install
$ npm test
