sphinxext-opengraph

Sphinx extension to generate OpenGraph metadata (https://ogp.me/)

Installation

python -m pip install sphinxext-opengraph

Options

These values are placed in the conf.py of your sphinx project.

• ogp_site_url
  • This config option is very important, set it to the URL the site is being hosted on.
• ogp_description_length
  • Configure the amount of characters taken from a page. The default of 200 is probably good for most people. If something other than a number is used, it defaults back to 200.
• ogp_image
  • This is not required. Link to image to show.
• ogp_type
  • This sets the ogp type attribute, for more information on the types available please take a look at https://ogp.me/#types. By default it is set to website, which should be fine for most use cases.
