This [Pelican](https://github.com/getpelican/pelican) plugin adds a reader for Markdown files with [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) metadata.
 | 
			
		||||
As the well-known static site generator [Jekyll](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll) uses Markdown files with YAML metadata, this eases migration from Jekyll to Pelican.

Installation
 | 
			
		||||
------------
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Copy the `md_yaml` directory to the `plugins` directory of your Pelican project (or whatever directory you specified for plugins in Pelican's `PLUGIN_PATHS` setting) and add `'md_yaml'` to the list of plugins (Pelican setting `PLUGINS`) of your project.
 | 
			
		||||
Clone this repo (and it's submodules) to the `plugins` directory of your Pelican project (or whatever directory you specified for plugins in Pelican's `PLUGIN_PATHS` setting) and add `'md_metayaml'` to the list of plugins (Pelican setting `PLUGINS`) of your project.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
To make sure the submodule is included use `git clone --recursive [repo] [path]`
 | 
			
		||||
Alternatively, you can clone normally, then run `git submodule update --init` to checkout the submodule

Usage
 | 
			
		||||
-----
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
All your Markdown files (ending in `.md`, `.markdown`, `.mkd` and `.mdown`) will now be interpreted as using YAML for their metadata.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The following example shows a very simple article (only one line of text at the bottom) but with quite complex metadata (everything between the `---`):

		||||
     - Separate the eggs very carefully.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Add very little salt to the egg white.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Blend egg yolk and sugar and mix it extensively for some minutes using a mixer, until you obtain a homogenous mass.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Add mascarpone and mix again very extensively.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Beat the egg white and fold it into the other mass.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Construct the tiramisù: First a layer of cream, then a layer of ladyfingers dipped into espresso, cream, ladyfingers, ..., cream. Sprinkle with cacao.
 | 
			
		||||
     - Put the tiramisù into the fridge for about a night, serve cold!
