tongs metadata plugin
=====================

[](#tongs-metadata-plugin)

File metadata plugin for [Tongs](https://github.com/datashaman/tongs) static site generator.

setup
-----

[](#setup)

If you add the following config to your *tongs.json* file:

```
{
  "plugins": {
    "metadata": {
      "authors": "data/authors.json"
    }
  }
}

```

... then this plugin will load the contents of *src/data/authors.json* into the global metadata as `authors`.

The data files are removed from the build pipeline. The plugin recognizes and parses file with extensions `json`, `yaml` and `yml`.

source

[](#source)

This plugin is heavily based on [metalsmith-metadata](https://github.com/segmentio/metalsmith-metadata).
