## API

### extract(input, dateFormat, dateLocale)

Return object `{ title, date, desc, image, content }`.

I hope that all fields have self-explanatory names. Anyway, `desc` and `content` should be explained further: `desc` — first paragraph without date, `content` input without title and date.  All the fields are objects with such fields:

* title, desc, content: `text` and `html`
* date: `text`, `html`, `unix` and `moment`
* image: `alt`, `src` and `html`

Also everything in returned object has `node` field, which is an AST node, see [commonmark API][cmapi].
