A very simple Python package for parsing YAML Front Matter from a text file. Written for Python 3, but works for 2.
Usage
import frontmatter
# assuming 'testfile.md' exists
post = frontmatter.parse('testfile.md')
print(post['metadata']) # Dictionary
print(post['content']) # String
The output would be:
{'foo': 'bar', 'num': 3, 'list': ['first', 'second', 'third']}
