Metadata extracted from the document

Echidna relies on Specberus to parse the document. To get the complete set of metadata, two methods are available and are complementary: extractMetadata and validate. The short term goal is to have only extractMetadata in charge of metadata extraction.

extractMetata will extract:

• profile using Specberus#lib/rules/metadata/profile.js
• delivererIDs using Specberus#lib/rules/metadata/deliverers.js

validate will emits an event metadata for each of the following data:

• docDate from Specberus#lib/validator.js#L215
• title from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/headers/h1-title.js
• previousVersion from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/headers/dl.js
• latestVersion from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/headers/dl.js
• thisVersion from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/headers/dl.js
• editorIDs from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/echidna/editor-ids.js
• process from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/sotd/process.js
• shortname from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/heuristic/shortname.js
• editorsDraft from the rule Specberus#lib/rules/headers/dl.js
