Bigyue's Clog Support

this is A Markdown Preview with Front Matter for bigyue.cn

In bigyue.cn, Clog is a markdown file with front matter (toml).

In order to see how clog can appear in the bigyue.cn, I write this extension for real-time see the effect.

Features

Markdown Preview

when open a .md file, you can click show preview in the editor toolbar to activate real-time markdown preview.

Show Front Matter

if markdown file start with a front matter block, such as

+++
title = This is a front matter
description = introduction
+++

markdown content

it will not be parse as an part of markdown, instead it will be shown as a code block at the top of the markdown preview.

In bigyuecn, we using TOML for front matter, not YAML. Thus, you can see =, not : in front matter.

Auto update Front Matter on save

some information contained in front matter needs update when saving a markdown file, such as property last_modified. The name of this field can be configure in clog.fieldOfModifiedTime, this property is null if you do not change it, then the field name will be time_modify on default.
