marked-hook-frontmatter

A sequential hook for marked to support frontmatter in Markdown documents.

Frontmatter is metadata typically found at the beginning of a Markdown file, written in YAML format. This hook allows you to parse and access frontmatter data and the content separately, making it easier to work with Markdown files that contain metadata.

Install

You can install marked-hook-frontmatter using npm or yarn:

npm i marked-sequential-hooks marked-hook-frontmatter
# or
yarn add marked-sequential-hooks marked-hook-frontmatter

Usage

Once you've installed this hook, you can use it in your marked configuration. Here's an example of how to configure it:

Browser

<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>Marked hook frontmatter</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="content"></div>

    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked/marked.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked-sequential-hooks/dist/index.umd.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/moo/moo.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/js-yaml@4.1.0/dist/js-yaml.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked-hook-frontmatter/dist/index.umd.min.js"></script>
    <script>
      const md = `---
title: Hello, world!
author: John Doe
---

# Content

This is the main content of your Markdown file autored by **{author}**.
`

      document.getElementById('content').innerHTML = new marked.Marked()
        .use(
          markedSequentialHooks({
            markdownHooks: [markedHookFrontmatter()],
            htmlHooks: [
              (html, data) => {
                console.log(data)

                return html
                  .replace('{title}', data.title)
                  .replace('{author}', data.author)
              }
            ]
          })
        )
        .parse(md)
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Try marked-hook-frontmatter on RunKit

Node.js

import { Marked } from 'marked'
import markedSequentialHooks from 'marked-sequential-hooks'
import markedHookFrontmatter from 'marked-hook-frontmatter'

const markdown = `---
title: Hello, world!
author: John Doe
---

# {page.title}

This is the main content of your Markdown file autored by **{page.author}**.
`

const html = new Marked()
  .use(
    markedSequentialHooks({
      markdownHooks: [markedHookFrontmatter({ dataPrefix: 'page' })],
      htmlHooks: [
        (html, data) => {
          return html
            .replace('{page.title}', data.page.title)
            .replace('{page.author}', data.page.author)
        }
      ]
    })
  )
  .parse(markdown)

console.log(html)

Now, running node example.js yields:

<h1>Hello, world!</h1>
<p>
  This is the main content of your Markdown file autored by
  <strong>John Doe</strong>.
</p>
