# 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))
<p>The body. This is paragraph one.</p>
>>> 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 <p>).
>>> text = ' Some Code - not extra lines of meta data.'
>>> md = markdown.Markdown(['meta_yaml'])
>>> print(md.convert(text))
<pre><code>Some Code - not extra lines of meta data.
</code></pre>
>>> md.Meta
{}
