Get raw values, without HTML tags

[ZsharE]

Hi,

Is there any way to get the plain data value, without the HTML tag ?
Right know the {{ page.meta.git_revision_date_localized }} and {{ page.meta.git_creation_date_localized }} renders in a span tag.

<span class="git-revision-date-localized-plugin git-revision-date-localized-plugin-iso_date">2021-11-3</span>

There should be an option to be able to use only the date value.

I need this to be able to create custom meta tags for: article:published_time & article:modified_time properties like this:

<meta property="article:published_time" content="{{ page.meta.git_creation_date_localized }}">
<meta property="article:modified_time" content="{{ page.meta.git_revision_date_localized }}">

Thanks

Hi @ZsharE. Good point, I agree the raw date strings should be available for developers. Currently the span is hardcoded:

mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin/mkdocs_git_revision_date_localized_plugin/util.py

Lines 195 to 200 in ff73362

	# Wrap in <span> for styling
	for date_type, date_string in date_formats.items():
	date_formats[date_type] = (
	'<span class="git-revision-date-localized-plugin git-revision-date-localized-plugin-%s">%s</span>'
	% (date_type, date_string)
	)

I made some quick and dirty edits and exposed more date variants in page.meta (ff73362). Just released in 0.10.1. You can find the list of new available tags at https://timvink.github.io/mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin/howto/override-a-theme/#custom-themes

Hi @timvink ,

Thanks for the quick release, but there's a little problem:

mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin/mkdocs_git_revision_date_localized_plugin/plugin.py

Line 224 in ff73362

is_first_commit=False,

is_first_commit should be True.

Right now, the revision_date = creation_date.

Hi @timvink , any update about this issue ?

[timvink]

It's on my list but have had other stuff on my plate. Will prob look at it next Wednesday.

@timvink Sounds great. Let us know if we can help with anything. Test, etc.

[timvink]

Should be fixed now. I also spent a bit more time refactoring the code as 0.10.1 introduced extra overhead due to extra git log operations.
