Introduction

post-type-discovery

A Javascript implementation of the Post Type Discovery W3C spec.

Usage

The library exposes just one method that tells you the type of a post given a parsed microformats JSON.

var getType = require( 'post-type-discovery' );

// You can get parsed mf2 using a library like microformat-shiv, or microformat-node
var mf2 = {"items":[{"type":["h-entry"],"properties":{"author":[{"type":["h-card"],"properties":{"name":["Tantek \u00c7elik"],"photo":["http://tantek.com/logo.jpg"],"url":["http://tantek.com/"]},"value":"Tantek \u00c7elik"}],"name":["\ud83d\udcd5 started reading \u201cThe Eight Limbs of Yoga\u201d by Stuart Ray Sarbacker and Kevin Kimple. tantek.com/isbn/086547768X #yoga"],"category":["yoga"],"url":["http://tantek.com/2017/200/t1/started-eight-limbs-of-yoga"],"uid":["http://tantek.com/2017/200/t1/started-eight-limbs-of-yoga"],"syndication":["https://twitter.com/t/status/887903244676214784"],"published":["2017-07-19T22:08-0700"],"updated":["2017-07-19T22:08-0700"],"content":[{"html":"\ud83d\udcd5 started reading \u201cThe Eight Limbs of Yoga\u201d by Stuart Ray Sarbacker and Kevin Kimple. <a class=\"auto-link\" href=\"http://tantek.com/isbn/086547768X\">tantek.com/isbn/086547768X</a> #<span class=\"p-category auto-tag\">yoga</span>","value":"\ud83d\udcd5 started reading \u201cThe Eight Limbs of Yoga\u201d by Stuart Ray Sarbacker and Kevin Kimple. tantek.com/isbn/086547768X #yoga"}]}}]};

// Get the post type
var type = getType( mf2 );

The code is small, easy to read, and documented.
