remark-git-metadata v0.2.2

remark-metadata

Adds meta data about a Markdown file to a Markdown file, formatted as Front Matter.

The following meta data is added:

• lastModifiedAt using the last commit time of the file from git
• lastModifiedHash using the last commit hash of the file from git
• lastModifiedBy using the last commit author name of the file from git
• lastModifiedEmail using the last commit author email of the file from git

Installation

$ npm install remark-git-metadata

Requires remark-frontmatter.

Usage

Given a file, example.md, which contains the following Markdown:

---
title: Example
---

# Example

This is an example

Using remark like follows:

var vfile = require('to-vfile');
var remark = require('remark');
var frontmatter = require('remark-frontmatter');
var metadata = require('remark-metadata');

var example = vfile.readSync('example.md');

remark()
  .use(frontmatter)
  .use(metadata, { git: true })
  .process(example, function (err, file) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log(String(file))
    })
  });

This will output the following Markdown:

---
title: Example
lastModifiedAt: 'Tue, 28 Nov 2017 02:44:25 GMT'
lastModifiedHash: '5820fe3db899ea7ebf997a661df92780cbe25250'
lastModifiedBy: 'Joel Jeske'
lastModifiedAt: 'joel@jeske.com'
