Should StructuredData be exposed?

[bdukes]

I'm using https://github.com/dillonkearns/elm-pages/blob/master/examples/docs as an example for a project with blog posts/articles. In the post/article view, the head function uses StructuredData.article to create the schema.org markup, but the StructuredData module isn't exposed by the elm-pages package. Is the intention that I should be reimplementing only the pieces my application needs, or is that intended to be available for reuse? Thanks!

Hello! Good question. That module isn't intended for broader use because schema.org is a very complex spec with a lot of options, and a lot of data types that can be composed together. That module is more of a place to organize the structured data that this project uses.

I've done some experiments to look at what a full structured data API would look like, but it would be an ambitious project and I'm still not sure what the ideal API (or even a viable API) would look like. So not sure if it's a project I'll personally tackle or not, but maybe someone else wants to give it a go.

It would be more of a separate package rather than part of elm-pages directly either way.
