Closes #ISSUE Adds basic frontmatter support to `.md` files in docs. The only supported keys currently are `description` which becomes a `<meta name="description" contents="...">` tag, and `title` which becomes a normal `title` tag, with the title contents prefixed with the subject of the file. An example of the syntax can be found in `git.md`, as well as below ```md --- title: Some more detailed title for this page description: A page-specific description --- # Editor ``` The above will be transformed into (with non-relevant tags removed) ```html <head> <title>Editor | Some more detailed title for this page</title> <meta name="description" contents="A page-specific description"> </head> <body> <h1>Editor</h1> </body> ``` If no front-matter is provided, or If one or both keys aren't provided, the title and description will be set based on the `default-title` and `default-description` keys in `book.toml` respectively. ## Implementation details Unfortunately, `mdbook` does not support post-processing like it does pre-processing, and only supports defining one description to put in the meta tag per book rather than per file. So in order to apply post-processing (necessary to modify the html head tags) the global book description is set to a marker value `#description#` and the html renderer is replaced with a sub-command of `docs_preprocessor` that wraps the builtin `html` renderer and applies post-processing to the `html` files, replacing the marker value and the `<title>(.*)</title>` with the contents of the front-matter if there is one. ## Known limitations The front-matter parsing is extremely simple, which avoids needing to take on an additional dependency, or implement full yaml parsing. * Double quotes and multi-line values are not supported, i.e. Keys and values must be entirely on the same line, with no double quotes around the value. The following will not work: ```md --- title: Some Multi-line Title --- ``` * The front-matter must be at the top of the file, with only white-space preceding it * The contents of the title and description will not be html-escaped. They should be simple ascii text with no unicode or emoji characters Release Notes: - N/A *or* Added/Fixed/Improved ... --------- Co-authored-by: Katie Greer <katie@zed.dev>
