# Django Structured Data  [![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/django-structured-data)](https://pypi.org/project/django-structured-data/)
A template tag to assist in adding structured metadata to views and models.

## Install

1.  Add "structured_data" to your `INSTALLED_APPS`:
```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'structured_data',
]
```

## Use

### In models
Define a `structured_data` property on your models. This is written in a standard JSON-LD format. Included
 below is a complicated example.
```python
    @property
    def structured_data(self):
        url = SITE_URL + self.get_absolute_url()
        data = {
            '@type': 'BlogPosting',
            'headline': self.title,
            'author': {
                '@type': 'Person',
                'name': self.author
            },
            'datePublished': self.created.strftime('%Y-%m-%d'),
            'dateModified': self.modified.strftime('%Y-%m-%d'),
            'url': url,
            'mainEntityOfPage': {
                '@type': 'WebPage',
                '@id': url
            },
        }
        if self.image:
            data['image'] = SITE_URL + self.image.url

        return data

```

### In templates
Use the `json_ld_for` template tag to render your structured data as JSON-LD.
```djangotemplate
{% load jsonld %}
{% json_ld_for post %}
```

A second template tag, `og_for`, is also included. This attempts to translate your JSON-LD
data to Open Graph tags that can be read by Facebook, Twitter, Telegram
and more.
 ```djangotemplate
{% load opengraph %}
{% og_for post %}
```

A third template tag, `meta_for`, will render the **description** field from
your JSON-LD data as a standard HTML meta description tag.
 ```djangotemplate
{% load meta %}
{% meta_for post %}
```
