# bloggy-summary

> A summary generator for blog posts in bloggy, a small and lightweight blog engine for node.js.

## Quickstart

That's everything you need. Just call the `engine.extendWith()` function of the bloggy engine. But please ensure to register bloggy-summary with `extendWith()` __after__ you've registerd a rendering engine like `bloggy-marked`.

```Javascript
var engine = require('bloggy')();

engine.extendWith(require('bloggy-summary'));
```

After the content of a blog entry is read, it has to new fields.
- `summary` contains the html encoded summary up to the defined maximum length (see below)
- `metaDescription` contains a text-only representation (" is replaced with ') up to a length of about 180 characters. This information can be used to fill the `` tag.

## Additional options

You're able to change the following settings.

```Javascript
var engine = require('bloggy')(),
bloggySummary = require('bloggy-summary');

// Shown values are the default values
bloggySummary.maxLength = 300; // The maximum number of characters for the html-encoded, text-only summary snippet.
bloggySummary.prefix = '

'; // Prepends some text or unencoded strings
bloggySummary.suffix = ' ...

'; // Appends some text or unencoded strings

engine.extendWith(bloggySummary);

```
