Global config

Rails::MetaTags.config do |config|
  config.defaults.site_name   "Site name"
  config.defaults.creator     "Creator"
  config.defaults.publisher   "Publisher"
  config.defaults.identifier  :canonical_url
  config.defaults.url         :canonical_url

  config.defaults.description :default_description
  config.defaults.viewport    "width=device-width"
end

Strings will be used as is, symbols will be called as instance methods on the current controller

Usage in controllers

class Admin::BaseController < ApplicationController
  def set_title
    meta.title = "#{controller_name.humanize} - #{action_name.humanize}"
    meta.resource = resource if params[:id] && respond_to?(:resource)
  end
end

Strings will be used as is, symbols will be called as instance methods on the current controller.

The resource property accepts a model that has a meta block declaration. The values defined there will over ride those set in the controller.

Usage in models

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  meta do
    type 'article'
    title :title
    description :subtitle
    image :og_image
  end
end

Strings will be used as is, symbols will be called as instance methods on the model.

Contributing to rails_meta_tags

• Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
• Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
• Fork the project
• Start a feature/bugfix branch
• Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
• Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
• Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
