markdata

Markdata lets you parse and serialize MultiMarkdown metadata. Additionally it returns a string without the metadata block markdata doesn't require any additional dependencies and is licensed under LGPL-3.0. markdata currently supports deserializing into classes and strucs. Currently you can deserialize the following types: string, string[], Date, DateTime and any types that can be converted using std.conv.to. You can add more types by editing the parseValue function in deserializer.d

Examples

Examples can be found in the examples folder. Here's a snippet of code from the exaple:

import std.file;
import markdata.parser;
import markdata.deserializer;

class Info
{
	int Year;
	string Author;
	@MetaKey("Some other data")
	string[] OtherData;
}

...

string md = readText("example.md");
auto meta = parseMetadata(md);

writeln("Metadata:");
writeln(meta.data);
// ["Project Name":["Markdata"], ...

writeln("Remaining Text:");
writeln(meta.remainingText);
// This is the **markdown** text ...

Info inf = deserializeMetadata!Info(meta.data);
writeln("Author: \t" ~ inf.Author);
// Author:         Ryhon ...
