# ActiveSeo
Optimize ActiveRecord models with support for SEO, Twitter and Open Graph meta.
[![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/active_seo.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/rb/active_seo)
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/hardpixel/active-seo.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/hardpixel/active-seo)
[![Maintainability](https://api.codeclimate.com/v1/badges/4447eb1a073a93ace5b2/maintainability)](https://codeclimate.com/github/hardpixel/active-seo/maintainability)## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'active_seo'
```And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install active_seo
Then run the generator that will create a migration for the SeoMetum model and an initializer:
$ rails g active_seo:install
And finally run the migrations:
$ rails db:migrate
## Usage
To add SEO meta support to an ActiveRecord model include the `ActiveSeo::Meta` Concern or use the `has_seo` class method:
```ruby
class Page < ApplicationRecord
# Using concern
include ActiveSeo::Meta# Or using `has_seo` class method
has_seo
end
```SeoMetum's attributes will be automatically delegated by your model with the `seo` prefix and you can use them in forms:
```erb
<%= form_for @page do |f| %>
<%= f.text_field :seo_title %>
<%= f.text_area :seo_description %>
<%= f.text_area :seo_keywords %>
<%= f.check_box :seo_noindex %>
<%= f.check_box :seo_nofollow %>
<% end %>
```To get a SEO attribute:
```ruby
@page.seo_title
```To get all SEO attributes:
```ruby
@page.seo_meta
```## Configuration
The install generator will create an initializer:
```ruby
ActiveSeo.setup do |config|
# config.title_limit = 70
# config.description_limit = 160
# config.keywords_limit = 255
# config.keywords_separator = ', '
# config.title_fallback = true
# config.description_fallback = true
# config.generate_keywords = true# config.opengraph_setup do |og|
# og.type = 'website'
# og.site_name = 'Site Name'
# end# config.twitter_setup do |tw|
# tw.card = 'summary'
# tw.site = '@site'
# tw.creator = '@author'
# end
end
```You can set global defaults for attribute validations, automatic meta generation, OpenGraph and Twitter meta.
Settings `title_fallback` and `description_fallback` can be a `Symbol` or an `Array` of symbols that reference a model attribute/method which will be used to autogenerate the title and description attributes. When using an `Array` the first attribute that returns a value will be used.
This behavior can also be configured on a model level:
```ruby
class Page < ApplicationRecord
# Using concern
include ActiveSeo::Meta# With `seo_setup` method
seo_setup title_fallback: :name, description_fallback: [:content, :excerpt]# Or using `has_seo` class method
has_seo title_fallback: :name, description_fallback: [:content, :excerpt]
end
```## OpenGraph and Twitter
If you want to define non-global OpenGraph and Twitter configurations you can create a custom meta contextualizer. ActiveSeo will look for a class defined in the model:
```ruby
class Page < ApplicationRecord
# Using concern
include ActiveSeo::Meta# With `seo_contextualizer` method
seo_contextualizer 'CustomContextualizer'# Or using `has_seo` class method
has_seo contextualizer: 'CustomContextualizer'
end
```Or for a class located in `app/contextualizers` with a name like `ModelContextualizer`.
```ruby
class PageContextualizer < ActiveSeo::Contextualizer
# Using a proc
og_meta :image, -> obj { { _: obj.image, width: obj.image_width } }
# Using a method defined in the contextualizer
og_meta :video, :video_url# Using an attribute from the record
twitter_meta :description, :seo_description
# Using a string
twitter_meta :card, 'app'# Use `record` to get record attributes
def video_url
record.video_url
end
end
```Inside the contextualizer you can define values using a `Proc` which gives you access to the record, a `Symbol` which will look for an attibute or method first inside the contextualizer and then in the model, or a `String` for a static value.
## Printing SEO meta
This gem does not provide helpers to output the meta, but was designed to provide a hash containing all the attributes the way the [Meta Tags](https://github.com/kpumuk/meta-tags) gem requires them.
So, if you're using Meta Tags you can do the following:
```erb
<%= display_meta_tags(@page.seo_meta) %>
```## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`.
