Perhaps this function should be renamed now since it's actually doing a bit more
than just getting the metadata. I can't think of anything better than something
like `parse_page_content` -- feel free to suggest a better name (we can discuss
on IRC to speed it up).

[juliandoucette, 2017/07/03 21:55:54]

[`get`, `query`, `pages`, `get_pages`, ...]  I like short names.

[Vasily Kuznetsov, 2017/07/04 07:43:48]

Note that this is not the function that gets exposed to the templates. Also,
what it does is take contents of one page and separate it into metadata and the
rest (which is then used to render the page), so the name should reflect that.

[juliandoucette, 2017/07/04 09:57:25]

Oh, sorry. I meant the get_pages_metadata function (the one that is exposed). It
does more than get pages metadata no (It includes page contents)? So why not
rename it something more appropriate (generic)?

[Vasily Kuznetsov, 2017/07/04 10:23:34]

Currently the content is not included in metadata and I think it makes sense to
keep it so as far as this ticket is concerned.

P.S. If we include page content, it would be just what's in the file, before the
CMS processing. Not sure if that would be very useful or more confusing.

[juliandoucette, 2017/07/04 10:42:56]

Definitely more confusing.

I don't really care if the content is there (because I haven't had to use it
yet) - but it does logically follow that if the processed content is not in this
object then I should be able to pass this object or the page name to another
function to get it (another ticket ~someday).

[Vasily Kuznetsov, 2017/07/03 17:42:44]

Whenever possible, it's best to write docstrings in the style "Doo foo" or if
we're returning something non-obvious, "Do foo, return bar" or "Do foo, yield
bars" [1]. So perhaps here we could write something like "Separate page content
into metadata (dict) and body text (str)".

[Vasily Kuznetsov, 2017/07/03 17:42:44]

I think the variable naming is somewhat confusing here. `page_data` should
probably be called `metadata`, since we usually call this metadata elsewhere and
`cleaned_page` could be something like `body_text`. What do you think?

We can just take the first part of the tuple that `get_page_metadata` returns
and then I would also suggest renaming the variable for clarity. So we'd end up
with:

    metadata = get_page_metadata(...)[0]

What do you think?
