API

extract(input, dateFormat, dateLocale)

Return object { title, date, tags, content }.

I hope that all fields have self-explanatory names. Anyway, tags and content should be explained further: desc — paragrapgh with elements like #tag1 #tag2;, content input without title, tags and date. All the fields are objects with such fields:

  • title, content: text and html
  • tags: list, text and html
  • date: text, html, unix and moment

Also everything in returned mdast object node, see MDAST.
