json-to-frontmatter-yaml

A small json to frontmatter yaml script using the grey-matter library (Used with the Hugo static website generator, but if you want to use it for other purposes, I am sure you can)

Use by adjusting the config section at the top of the script

Prerequisites

• node & npm
• grey-matter

Installing & Running

• Run npm install to install dependencies
• Run node convert.js to convert files

Commands

There is 1 available command:

• node convert.js (Converts the file and creates a second index file named index.md.md that you can rename yourself)
• node convert.js replace (Replace original index.md with new and rename original as index_old.md .)

Flags:

• -c FILE.json or --configFile FILE.json flag to override default config (check config-example.json)
