""" # YAML Meta Data Extension for [Python-Markdown](https://github.com/waylan/Python-Markdown) This extension adds YAML meta data handling to markdown. As in the original, meta data is parsed but not used in processing. (YAML meta data is used e.g. by [pandoc](http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/)) Dependencies: [PyYAML](http://pyyaml.org/) Basic Usage: >>> import markdown >>> text = '''--- ... Title: Test Doc. ... Author: Waylan Limberg ... Blank_Data: ... ... ... ... The body. This is paragraph one. ... ''' >>> md = markdown.Markdown(['meta_yaml']) >>> print(md.convert(text))
The body. This is paragraph one.
>>> print(md.Meta) # doctest: +SKIP {'blank_data': [''], 'author': ['Waylan Limberg'], 'title': ['Test Doc.']} Make sure text without Meta Data still works (markdown < 1.6b returns a). >>> text = ' Some Code - not extra lines of meta data.' >>> md = markdown.Markdown(['meta_yaml']) >>> print(md.convert(text))
Some Code - not extra lines of meta data.
>>> md.Meta
{}
