PHP Metadata

An helper package to build metadata tags on PHP pages.

Installation

Require this package with composer.

composer require anthonypauwels/metadata

Laravel without auto-discovery:

If you don't use auto-discovery, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php:

Anthonypauwels\Metadata\Laravel\ServiceProvider::class,

Then add this line to your facades in config/app.php:

'Metadata' => Anthonypauwels\Metadata\Laravel\Metadata::class,

Usage

Helper function

Helper function returns an instance of Metadata.

$metadata = metadata();

metadata()->title( 'Website title' );
metadata()->description( 'Website description' );
metadata()->url( url()->full() );
metadata()->author( 'Anthony Pauwels' );
metadata()->opengraphImage( asset('/img/facebook_meta.jpg'), ['width' => 1200, 'height' => 600, 'type' => 'JPEG'] );
metadata()->twitterImage( asset('/img/twitter_meta.jpg'), ['width' => 600, 'height' => 400, 'type' => 'JPEG'] );
metadata()->twitterCard( 'app' );
metadata()->type( 'website' );

With Laravel

The package provides by default a Facade for Laravel application. You can call methods directly using the Facade or use the alias instead.

use Anthonypauwels\Metadata\Laravel\Metadata;

Metadata::title( 'Website title' );
