This allow plugins to provide a way to extract metadata from file the way
they wish to.

Metadata will be search first from the default value of as before this
PR. Metadata extracted by the plugin will then be merged into the
metadata dict, which in turn will be extended by the value in the
.meta file if present.


See start of discussion from #1602

I tried to get the api to extract metadata by way of plugins, as close as possible as other get_meta calls.
I also implement this for 1 plugin (.ipynb) the one I'm interested in.

This should not change current behavior for reading metadata from other places.

IMO, you should integrate this into get_meta instead.

Sorry for the time to respond, comment should be addressed.
moving things to get_meta seem a bit weird, also due to the cause that get_meta get passed self as first arg, but is not a method.

So what? read_metadata also gets the Post object, and also as self. read_metadata should not be put outside of the standard get_meta pipeline.

No, i just ment that passing self as first argument just felt unnatural to me, I was thus thinking that from inside get_metadata I couldn't get access to self.compiler, but in fact I can, as it is name post.compiler from inside the function. Just me not used to the codebase, sorry if I express myself badly.

I've also forgot to push the cleanup commit that remove my debugs, and comments.
Tell me if you want me to squash everything into one commit.

Still ? You asked me to move it in it's in get_meta which I did. Though get_metareturn in two places, so if the post.compiler.read_metadata want to have an effect in all casses, I need to call it before each of the returns. Which explain why the call still appear twice in the diff.

  1. Failing tests: https://travis-ci.org/getnikola/nikola/jobs/49094459#L871 → dummy posts used for tests do not have a compiler attribute
  2. Failing flake8: https://travis-ci.org/getnikola/nikola/jobs/49094463#L136
  3. The part under if meta: should not be there; you should parse compiler meta only once in the code (don’t do it if an explicit .meta file exists? Refactor .meta loading?)
  4. Add this to CHANGES.txt (at the very top, under Features) and yourself to AUTHORS.txt.

I recommend replacing the if meta: block with

if not meta:
    post.is_two_file = False

and then putting the compiler_meta code only in one place. It should also appear above the if lang is None: block. This sounds the most sensible to me.

Code looks good, only needs some typo fixes in the documentation. Will fix myself.
