# Setting up social cards
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Material for MkDocs can automatically create beautiful social cards for your
|
|
|
|
|
documentation, which appear as link previews on social media platforms. You
|
2023-05-08 17:44:39 +03:00
|
|
|
|
can select from several [pre-designed layouts][default layouts] or create
|
2023-05-08 11:25:09 +03:00
|
|
|
|
[custom layouts] to match your unique style and branding.

### Built-in social plugin

|
|
|
The built-in social plugin automatically generate a custom preview image for
|
|
|
|
|
each page. Install all [dependencies for image processing][^1] and add the
|
|
|
|
|
following lines to `mkdocs.yml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[^1]:
|
|
|
|
|
The awesome thing about social cards is that they are generated during
|
|
|
|
|
build time and directly distributed with your documentation, no external
|
|
|
|
|
services involved. While it would technically be simpler to generate
|
|
|
|
|
social cards using a web browser and an automation framework like
|
|
|
|
|
[Puppeteer], it would add further liabilities to the toolchain, with the
|
|
|
|
|
potential to make build pipelines more complex and resource intense.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For this reason, Material for MkDocs again follows its core principle of
|
|
|
|
|
making it as simple and powerful as possible, providing an easy-to-use
|
|
|
|
|
framework for building [custom layouts] using Python image processing
|
2023-05-08 17:44:39 +03:00
|
|
|
|
libraries.

Default: _number of CPUs_ – How many CPUs the plugin is allowed to use when

disabled with:

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
Default: `false` – This option enables a special debug mode, which renders
|
|
|
|
|
each layer with an outline and its `x` and `y` offset in order to understand
|
|
|
|
|
how the layout is composed, and optionally renders a grid for easier
|
|
|
|
|
alignment:

|
: [:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.33.0][Insiders] · :octicons-milestone-24:
|
|
|
|
|
Default: `32` – This option specifies the step size of the grid in pixels,

|
|
|
|
|
Default: `grey` – This option sets the color of the layer outlines and
|
|
|
|
|
the grid which are rendered when [`debug`][debug] is enabled. It can be
|
|
|
|
|
changed with:

|
|
|
|
#### Caching
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [built-in social plugin] implements an intelligent caching mechanism,
|
|
|
|
|
ensuring that social cards are only re-generated when they're not contained in
|
|
|
|
|
the cache or their contents change. If any of the variables used in a layout
|
|
|
|
|
changes, the plugin will detect it and re-generate the card.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following configuration options are available for caching:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[`cache`](#+social.cache){ #+social.cache }
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
: [:octicons-tag-24: insiders-4.33.0][Insiders] · :octicons-milestone-24:
|
|
|
|
|
Default: `true` – Whether the plugin queries its cache for an existing
|
|
|
|
|
artifact before starting a generation job. It's normally not necessary to
|
|
|
|
|
change this setting, except for when debugging the plugin itself. Caching
|
|
|
|
|
can be disabled with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
plugins:
|
|
|
|
|
- social:
|
|
|
|
|
cache: false
|
2021-07-25 21:36:30 +03:00
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-08 11:25:09 +03:00
|
|
|
|
[`cache_dir`](#+social.cache_dir){ #+social.cache_dir }
|
2021-07-25 21:36:30 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-08 11:25:09 +03:00
|
|
|
|
: :octicons-milestone-24: Default: `.cache/plugins/social` – This option
|
|
|
|
|
specifies the file system location of the plugin's cache. It's normally not
|
|
|
|
|
necessary to change this setting, except for when debugging the plugin
|
|
|
|
|
itself. The cache directory can be changed with:
|
2021-10-10 14:17:39 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-08 11:25:09 +03:00
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
plugins:
|
|
|
|
|
- social:
|
|
|
|
|
cache_dir: .cache/plugins/social
|
2021-10-10 14:17:39 +03:00
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-08 11:25:09 +03:00
|
|
|
|
By default, all built-in plugins that implement caching will create a
|
|
|
|
|
`.cache` directory in the same folder your `mkdocs.yml` resides, and create
|
|
|
|
|
subfolders to not interfere with each other. If you use multiple instances
|
|
|
|
|
of this plugin, it could be necessary to change this setting.

## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to adjust the title or set a custom description for the social card,
|
2022-08-13 11:57:43 +03:00
|
|
|
|
you can set the front matter `title` and `description` properties, which take
|
|
|
|
|
precedence over the default values.

### Choosing a font
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some fonts do not contain CJK characters, like for example the
|
|
|
|
|
[default font, `Roboto`][font]. In case your `site_name`, `site_description`, or
|
|
|
|
|
page title contain CJK characters, choose another font from [Google Fonts] which
|
|
|
|
|
comes with CJK characters, e.g. one from the `Noto Sans` font family:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== "Chinese (Simplified)"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|

|
|

[Insiders] ships a ground up rewrite of the [built-in social plugin] and
|
|
|
|
|
introduces a brand new layout system based on a combination of YAML and
|
|
|
|
|
[Jinja templates] – the same engine Material for MkDocs uses for HTML
|
|
|
|
|
templating – allowing for the creation of complex custom layouts:

Social cards are composed of layers, analogous to how they are represented in
|
|
|
|
|
graphic design software such as Adobe Photoshop. As many layers are common
|
|
|
|
|
across the cards generated for each page (e.g., backgrounds or logos), the
|
|
|
|
|
built-in social plugin can automatically deduplicate layers and render them
|
|
|
|
|
just once, substantially accelerating card generation. The generated cards are
|
|
|
|
|
cached to ensure they are only regenerated when their contents change.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Layouts are written in YAML syntax. Before starting to create a custom layout,
|
|
|
|
|
it is a good idea to [study the pre-designed layouts] (link to [Insiders]
|
|
|
|
|
repository), in order to get a better understanding of how they work. Then,
|
|
|
|
|
create a new layout and reference it in `mkdocs.yml`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== ":octicons-file-code-16: `layouts/custom.yml`"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers: []
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== ":octicons-file-code-16: `mkdocs.yml`"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
plugins:
|
|
|
|
|
- social:
|
|
|
|
|
cards_layout_dir: layouts
|
|
|
|
|
cards_layout: custom
|
|
|
|
|
debug: true
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the `.yml` file extension should be omitted. Next, run `mkdocs serve`,
|
|
|
|
|
and see how the `.cache` directory is populated with the generated cards. Open
|
|
|
|
|
any card in your editor, so you can see your changes immediately. Since we
|
|
|
|
|
haven't defined any layers, the cards are transparent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following sections explain how to create custom layouts.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Size and offset
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each layer has an associated size and offset, which is defined in pixels. The
|
|
|
|
|
`size` is defined by a `width` and `height` property, and the `offset` by `x`
|
|
|
|
|
and `y` properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
offset: { x: 0, y: 0 }
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the `size` is omitted, it defaults to the size of the layout. If the `offset`
|
|
|
|
|
is omitted, it defaults to the top left corner, which is the origin for all
|
|
|
|
|
layers. Saving the layout and reloading renders:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer size]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The layer outline and grid are visible because we enabled [`debug`][debug]
|
|
|
|
|
mode in `mkdocs.yml`. The top left shows the layer index and offset, which is
|
|
|
|
|
useful for alignment and composition.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Backgrounds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each layer can be assigned a background color and image. If both are given, the
|
|
|
|
|
color is rendered on top of the image, allowing for semi-transparent, tinted
|
|
|
|
|
backgrounds:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== "Background color"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- background:
|
|
|
|
|
color: "#4051b5"
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer background color]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== "Background image"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- background:
|
|
|
|
|
image: layouts/background.jpg
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer background image]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== "Background image, tinted"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- background:
|
|
|
|
|
image: layouts/background.jpg
|
|
|
|
|
color: "#4051b5ee" # (1)!
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. The color value can be set to a [CSS color keyword], or a 3, 4, 6 or 8
|
|
|
|
|
letter HEX color code, allowing for semi-transparent layers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer background]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Background images are automatically scaled to fit the layer while preserving
|
|
|
|
|
aspect-ratio. Notice how we omitted `size` and `offset`, because we want to
|
|
|
|
|
fill the entire area of the social card.

### Typography
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now, we can add dynamic typography that is sourced from Markdown files - this is
|
|
|
|
|
the actual raison d'être of the [built-in social plugin]. [Jinja templates] are
|
|
|
|
|
used to render a text string that is then added to the image:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- size: { width: 832, height: 310 }
|
|
|
|
|
offset: { x: 62, y: 160 }
|
|
|
|
|
typography:
|
|
|
|
|
content: "{{ page.title }}" # (1)!
|
|
|
|
|
align: start
|
|
|
|
|
color: white
|
|
|
|
|
line:
|
|
|
|
|
amount: 3
|
|
|
|
|
height: 1.25
|
|
|
|
|
font:
|
|
|
|
|
family: Roboto
|
|
|
|
|
style: Bold
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. The following variables can be used in [Jinja templates]:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- [`config.*`][config variable]
|
|
|
|
|
- [`page.*`][page variable]
|
|
|
|
|
- [`layout.*`][layout options]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The author is free in defining `layout.*` options, which can be used to pass
|
|
|
|
|
arbitrary data to the layout from `mkdocs.yml`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This renders a text layer with the title of the page with a line height of 1.25,
|
|
|
|
|
and a maximum number of 3 lines. The plugin automatically computes the font size
|
|
|
|
|
from the line height, the number of lines, and font metrics like ascender and
|
|
|
|
|
descender.[^2] This renders:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[^2]:
|
|
|
|
|
If the plugin would require the author to specify the font size and line
|
|
|
|
|
height manually, it would be impossible to guarantee that the text fits
|
|
|
|
|
into the layer. For this reason we implemented a declarative approach,
|
|
|
|
|
where the author specifies the desired line height and number of lines, and
|
|
|
|
|
the plugin computes the font size automatically.

#### Overflow
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-14 19:02:18 +03:00
|
|
|
|
If the text overflows the layer, there are two possible behaviors: either the
|
|
|
|
|
text is automatically truncated and shortened with an ellipsis, or the text is
|
|
|
|
|
automatically scaled down to fit the layer:
|
2023-05-08 17:44:39 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` { .markdown .no-copy }
|
|
|
|
|
# If we use a very long headline, we can see how the text will be truncated
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-14 19:02:18 +03:00
|
|
|
|
=== ":octicons-ellipsis-16: Ellipsis"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer typography ellipsis]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== ":material-arrow-collapse: Shrink"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer typography shrink]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While truncating with an ellipsis is the default, auto-shrinking can be enabled
|
|
|
|
|
by setting `overflow` to `shrink`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml hl_lines="7"
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- size: { width: 832, height: 310 }
|
|
|
|
|
offset: { x: 62, y: 160 }
|
|
|
|
|
typography:
|
|
|
|
|
content: "{{ page.title }}"
|
|
|
|
|
overflow: shrink
|
|
|
|
|
align: start
|
|
|
|
|
color: white
|
|
|
|
|
line:
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
height: 1.25
|
|
|
|
|
font:
|
|
|
|
|
family: Roboto
|
|
|
|
|
style: Bold
|
|
|
|
|
```

|
|
#### Alignment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Text can be aligned to all corners and edges of the layer. For example, if we
|
|
|
|
|
want to align the text to the middle of the layer, we can set `align` to `start center`, which will render as:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer typography align]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following table shows the supported values:

|

|
#### Font
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [built-in social plugin] integrates with [Google Fonts] and will
|
|
|
|
|
automatically download the font files for you. The `font` property accepts a
|
|
|
|
|
`family` and `style` property, where the `family` must be set to the name of the
|
|
|
|
|
font, and the `style` to one of the supported font styles. For example, setting
|
|
|
|
|
`family` to `Roboto` will automatically download the following files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` { .sh .no-copy #example }
|
|
|
|
|
.cache/plugins/social/fonts
|
|
|
|
|
└─ Roboto/
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Black.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Black Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Bold.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Bold Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Light.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Light Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Medium.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Medium Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Regular.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
├─ Thin.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
└─ Thin Italic.ttf
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In that case, the author can use `Bold` or `Medium Italic` as the `style`. If
|
|
|
|
|
the font style specified in the layer is not part of the font family, the
|
|
|
|
|
font always falls back to `Regular` and prints a warning in [`debug`][debug]
|
|
|
|
|
mode, as `Regular` is included with all font families.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Icons
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Authors can leverage the full range of icons that are shipped with Material for
|
|
|
|
|
MkDocs, or even provide custom icons by using theme extension and going through
|
|
|
|
|
the process described in the guide on [additional icons]. Icons can even be
|
|
|
|
|
tinted by using the `color` property:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
size: { width: 1200, height: 630 }
|
|
|
|
|
layers:
|
|
|
|
|
- background:
|
|
|
|
|
color: "#4051b5"
|
|
|
|
|
- size: { width: 144, height: 144 }
|
|
|
|
|
offset: { x: 992, y: 64 }
|
|
|
|
|
icon:
|
|
|
|
|
value: material/cat
|
|
|
|
|
color: white
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will render the icon in the top right corner of the social card:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
![Layer icon]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The possibilities are endless. For example, icons can be used to draw shapes
|
|
|
|
|
like circles:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
|
|
|
