Installation

You can install the package via composer:

For Laravel <= 5.4

composer require mad-web/laravel-seoable:1.0.0

For Laravel 5.5

composer require mad-web/laravel-seoable

For Laravel <= 5.4 - Now add the service provider in config/app.php file:

'providers' => [
    // ...
    MadWeb\Seoable\SeoableServiceProvider::class,
];

You can publish the migration with:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MadWeb\Seoable\SeoableServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"

You can publish the config-file with:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MadWeb\Seoable\SeoableServiceProvider" --tag="config"

This is the contents of the published config/laravel-seoable.php config file:

return [
    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Seo Data Table
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | You can customize seo data storing table for your models
    */
    'seo_data_table' => 'seo_data',

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Seo Data Templates Path
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Path to lang file where you can set property template
    |
    | Supported properties: "title", "description"
    */
    'templates_path' => 'seoable::seo',

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Seo Data Model
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Model name for seo data table
    */
    'model' => \MadWeb\Seoable\Models\SeoData::class
];

To settings templates for title and description meta tags, you can publish the lang file by:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MadWeb\Seoable\SeoableServiceProvider" --tag="lang"

or set your own in templates_path config property

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Seo Data Templates Path
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Path to lang file where you can set property template
|
| Supported properties: "title", "description"
*/
'templates_path' => 'seoable::seo',

Usage

The next step, you need to prepare your model by implementing the Interface, use a Trait and implement seoable() method like this

class User implements Seoable
{
    use SeoableTrait;
    ...
    
    public function seoable()
    {
    }
}

Tags setting

Take the seo() method and setup fields by fluent api:

public function seoable()
{
    $this->seo()
        ->setTitle('full_name')
        ->setDescription('full_name');
}

After that setup templates like in the next example:

return [
    \App\User::class => [
        'title' => 'This is page title for user profile :full_name',
        'description' => 'This is page description for user profile :full_name',
        'twitter_card' => [
            'title' => 'Page title for twitter card :full_name',
            'description' => 'Page description for twitter card :full_name'
        ],
        'open_graph' => [
            'title' => 'Page title for open graph :full_name',
            'description' => 'Page description for open graph :full_name'
        ]
    ]
];

If you don't declare it, the field value will be used by default

Also you can set raw property by adding a Raw postfix to the any kind of method

public function seoable()
{
    $this->seo()
        ->setTitleRaw('Some awesome title')
        ->setDescriptionRaw('Some awesome description');
}

You can pass multiple attributes and set custom names by putting an associative array

public function seoable()
{
    $this->seo()
        ->setTitle(['name' => 'full_name', 'address' => 'email'])
        ->setDescription('full_name');
}

You have ability to save seo meta tags attached to the model by using seoData() relation

$user = User::find(1)
$user->seoData->update(['meta' => ['title' => 'some title']]);

Stored tags has higher priority then tags set in seoable() method *

Filling tags

In your controller you can call seoable() method like this

public function show($post)
{
    $post->seoable()
    ...
}

If you want to override some meta tags

public function show($post)
{
    $post->seoable()->meta()
    ->setTitleRaw('Some Post Title');
    ...
}

If you need to ignore stored tags in the database for the model

public function show($post)
{
    $post->seoable()->meta()->ignoreStored()
    ->setTitleRaw('Some Post Title');
    ...
}

Tags generating

Put the next row inside the <head> tag

<head>
...
{!! resolve('seotools')->generate() !!}
...
</head>

or your can add Facade into the app.php config

'aliases' => [
    // other Facades ommited
    'SEO' => Artesaos\SEOTools\Facades\SEOTools::class,
]

and use it instead of resolve('seotools')

<head>
...
{!! SEO::generate() !!}
...
</head>

To set default meta tags values just publish SEOTools config

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Artesaos\SEOTools\Providers\SEOToolsServiceProvider"

You can find full usage documentation on SEOTools Readme

                ]
            ])
        ->opengraph()
            ->setTitle('name')
            ->setDescription(['name', 'email'])
            ->setUrl('url')
            ->setSiteName('site_name')
            ->setImages(['avatar', 'image'])
            ->setProperties([
                [
                    'key' => 'foo',
                    'value' => 'attribute'
                ],
                [
                    'key' => 'another',
                    'value' => 'another_attribute'
                ]
            ])
