With this package you can manage header Meta and OG Tags from Laravel controllers. Kept up to date for the latest Laravel versions.
While there is a few forks of this original package this is the only one kept updated for Laravel 5.4!
From the command line run
$ composer require Cookizza/laravel-meta-tags
Once Meta Tags is installed you need to register the service provider with the application. Open up config/app.php and find the providers key.
'providers' => array(
Cookizza\LaravelMetaTags\MetaTagsServiceProvider::class,
)Meta Tags also ships with a facade which provides the static syntax for creating collections. You can register the facade in the aliases key of your config/app.php file.
'aliases' => array(
'MetaTag' => Cookizza\LaravelMetaTags\Facades\MetaTag::class,
)Run this on the command line from the root of your project:
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Cookizza\LaravelMetaTags\MetaTagsServiceProvider"
A configuration file will be publish to config/meta-tags.php.
Various settings for these options can be found in the config/meta-tags.php file.
