A simple library to read Open Graph data from the web and generate HTML code to publish your own Open Graph objects. A fallback mode enables you to read data from websites that do not implement the Open Graph protocol.
Using this library you can easily retrieve stuff like meta data, video information from YouTube or Vimeo or image information from Flickr without using site-specific APIs since they all implement the Open Graph protocol.
See ogp.me for information on the Open Graph protocol.

curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar installOnce installed, include vendor/autoload.php in your script.
require "vendor/autoload.php";use Fusonic\OpenGraph\Consumer;
$consumer = new Consumer($httpClient, $httpRequestFactory);
$object = $consumer->loadUrl("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P422jZg50X4");
// Basic information of the object
echo "Title: " . $object->title; // Getting started with Facebook Open Graph
echo "Site name: " . $object->siteName; // YouTube
echo "Description: " . $object->description; // Originally recorded at the Facebook World ...
echo "Canonical URL: " . $object->url; // http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P422jZg50X4
// Images
$image = $object->images[0];
echo "Image[0] URL: " . $image->url; // https://i1.ytimg.com/vi/P422jZg50X4/maxresdefault.jpg
echo "Image[0] height: " . $image->height; // null (May return height in pixels on other pages)
echo "Image[0] width: " . $image->width; // null (May return width in pixels on other pages)
// Videos
$video = $object->videos[0];
echo "Video URL: " . $video->url; // http://www.youtube.com/v/P422jZg50X4?version=3&autohide=1
echo "Video height: " . $video->height; // 1080
echo "Video width: " . $video->width; // 1920
echo "Video type: " . $video->type; // application/x-shockwave-flashThere are some more properties but these are the basic and most commonly used ones.

You can run the test suite by running phpunit from the command line.
I don't get any information from a webpage, but Facebook shows information for the same URL. What do I do wrong?
It seems that some pages (like Twitter) only publish OpenGraph information if Facebook's user agent string facebookexternalhit/1.1 is used (see #28). So you should configure your PSR-18 client to use this user agent string:
$client = new Psr18Client(new NativeHttpClient([ "headers" => [ "User-Agent" => "facebookexternalhit/1.1" ] ]));This library is licensed under the MIT license.
