README

This package provides a way to include metadata tags and other SEO related values inside a view.

This is the most flexible way of inject metadata inside webpages without the need of a database.

Use this package if you don't need complex implementation over SEO metadata.

Configuration

Composer

Require this package inside your composer.json file


"agpretto/metadata": "^0.1"

Install

Use the package install command to install Metadata inside your application.

php artisan metadata:install
// or
php artisan metadata:install --template

Opt-in publishing the default metadata template to your resouces/views/vendor/metadata folder.

You can opt-in publishing metadata template by using the flag -T or --template.

Usage

This package is a very simple metadata management suite to include metadata tags and related SEO values inside a view.

  1. Before start using this package update the configuration file config/metadata.php with your default SEO informations.

  2. Include a new stack inside your base layout view. This stack will collect all your SEO metadata.

// main layout

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <!-- Metadata -->
        @stack('metadata')

    </head>
    <body>
    </body>
</html>

Now you're ready to include your metadata.

  1. Choose a public view of your website content (ex. views/articles/page.blade.php).
@extends('layouts.page')

@section('content')

<section>
    <h2>{{ $article->title }}</h2>

    <div>{{ $article->body }}</div>
</section>

@endsection

// push metadata view on the stack
@push('metadata')
    @include('metadata::metadata', [
        'title' => $article->title, // <- use the model title to contextualize the title metadata
        'author' => 'John Doe'      // <- or simply overrides default author value at runtime
    ])
@endpush
