LeogoutSeoBundle
This bundle provides a simple and flexible API to manage _search engine optimization_ (SEO) tags in your application.
Its main goal is to make it simple for you to manage the most common meta, open graph and twitter card tags
and to let you configure less common ones with ease., (*1)
, (*2)
Installation
Install the bundle with the command:, (*3)
composer require leogout/seo-bundle, (*4)
Register the bundle in your AppKernel:, (*5)
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = array(
// ...
new Leogout\Bundle\SeoBundle\LeogoutSeoBundle(),
);
}
}
Configuration
These configuration values are the defaults used to render your tags.
See the next section to learn how to override them dynamically., (*6)
There are four sections in the config:
* general: The global configuration. Its values are shared among the other as defaults.
* basic: A set of the most common SEO tags.
* og: A set of open graph tags based on http://ogp.me/.
* twitter: A set of twitter card tags based on https://dev.twitter.com/cards/types, (*7)
See "Configuration reference" to get the whole configuration., (*8)
In your config.yml:, (*9)
leogout_seo:
general:
title: Default title
description: Default description.
image: http://images.com/poneys/12/large # This one is shared by open graph and twitter only
basic:
title: Awesome title
keywords: default, keywords
og:
type: website
url: http://test.com/articles
twitter:
card: summary
site: '@leogoutt'
In your view:, (*10)
<head>
{{ leogout_seo() }}
</head>
NOTE: You can provide a generator name to the leogout_seo() twig method to render it specifically.
For example, to render the basic seo generator, you can use leogout_seo('basic')., (*11)
The result:, (*12)
<head>
<title>Awesome title</title>
<meta name="description" content="Default description." />
<meta name="keywords" content="default, keywords" />
<meta name="og:title" content="Default title" />
<meta name="og:description" content="Default description." />
<meta name="og:image" content="http://test.com/articles" />
<meta name="og:type" content="website" />
<meta name="twitter:title" content="Default title" />
<meta name="twitter:description" content="Default description." />
<meta name="twitter:image" content="http://images.com/poneys/12/large" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary" />
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@leogoutt" />
</head>
NOTE: By default, the SEO generators aren't loaded if you don't require them in the config.
However, if you want to use the associated generators without configuring any default values
(or configuring only the general ones), you can use this notation:, (*13)
leogout_seo:
general:
title: Default title
description: Default description.
image: http://images.com/poneys/12/large # This one is shared by open graph and twitter only
basic: ~
og: ~
twitter: ~
Setting values dynamically
You can get the '[basic|twitter|og] as a service to set or override any values.
Each value of the configuration can be overrided using a setter of the following form:
$this->get('leogout_seo.provider.generator')->get(' [basic|twitter|og] ')->set [config field name] ( [value] ), (*14)
For example, if you want to change title and robots from basic, you can do this:, (*15)
class DefaultController extends Controller
{
public function indexAction()
{
$this->get('leogout_seo.provider.generator')->get('basic')
->setTitle('Title set in controller')
->setRobots(true, false); // they can be chained
return $this->render('AppBundle:Default:index.html.twig');
}
}
Setting values from a resource
You can configure your own model classes to let the seo generators do all the work thanks to the fromResource() method.
Multiple interfaces are available to help the method guess which setters to call to fill the tags., (*16)
This is an exemple for the basic generator:
In your resource:, (*17)
use Leogout\Bundle\SeoBundle\Seo\Basic\BasicSeoInterface;
class MyResource implements BasicSeoInterface
{
protected $name;
protected $description;
protected $tags = [];
// ...Your logic
// These methods are from BasicSeoInterface and have to
// return a string (or an object with a __toString() method).
public function getSeoTitle()
{
return $this->name;
}
public function getSeoDescription()
{
return $this->description;
}
public function getSeoKeywords()
{
return implode(',', $this->tags);
}
}
In your controller:, (*18)
class MyController extends Controller
{
public function indexAction(Request $request)
{
$myResource = new MyResource();
$myResource
->setName('Cool resource')
->setDescription('Some description')
->addKeyword('hey')
->addKeyword('ho')
->addKeyword('let's go!');
$this->get('leogout_seo.provider.generator')->get('basic')->fromResource($myResource);
return $this->render('MyController:Default:index.html.twig');
}
}
In your view:, (*19)
<head>
{{ leogout_seo('basic') }}
</head>
The result:, (*20)
<head>
<title>Cool resource</title>
<meta name="description" content="Some description" />
<meta name="keywords" content="hey,ho,let's go!" />
</head>
There are three main interfaces, one for each generator:
* BasicSeoInterface for basic
* OgSeoInterface for og
* TwitterSeoInterface for twitter, (*21)
These interfaces extends simpler interfaces which you can inplement instead or additionnally.
For example, if you only have a meta description on your resource, you can implement DescriptionSeoInterface only to provide a description alone.
This is the list of the different interfaces and what they extends:, (*22)

Advanced usage
If the built-in generators don't suit your needs, LeogoutSeoBundle provides a way to create your own SEO generators.
First, you have to create a class that extends the AbstractSeoGenerator class:, (*23)
use Leogout\Bundle\SeoBundle\Seo\AbstractSeoGenerator;
class MyTagsGenerator extends AbstractSeoGenerator
{
public function setMyTag($content)
{
$this->tagBuilder->addMeta('myTag')
->setType(MetaTag::NAME_TYPE)
->setValue('myAwesomeTag')
->setContent((string) $content);
return $this;
}
public function getMyTag()
{
return $this->tagBuilder->getMeta('myTag');
}
}
Then, register it as a service and add it a leogout_seo.generator tag and a custom alias.
Don't forget the @leogout_seo.builder dependency:, (*24)
services:
app.seo_generator.my_tags:
class: AppBundle\Generator\MyTagsGenerator
arguments: [ '@leogout_seo.builder' ] # This is required
tags: { name: leogout_seo.generator, alias: my_tags }
That's it, now you can use it alongside the others:, (*25)
In your controller:, (*26)
class MyController extends Controller
{
public function indexAction(Request $request)
{
$this->get('leogout_seo.provider.generator')->get('my_tags')->setMyTag('cool');
return $this->render('MyController:Default:index.html.twig');
}
}
In your view:, (*27)
<head>
{{ leogout_seo('my_tags') }}
</head>
Result:, (*28)
<head>
<meta name="myAwesomeTag" content="cool" />
</head>

Many thanks to the ARCANEDEV/SEO-Helper who authorized me to take some ideas from their library and to KnpMenuBundle which inspired me for the Providers APIs., (*30)
