# Admin Addon Media Metadata Plugin
|
||||
|
||||
The **Admin Addon Media Metadata** Plugin is an extension for the [Grav CMS](http://github.com/getgrav/grav) [Admin plugin](https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-admin). It lets you add and **edit metadata for media files** in the Page Media browser.
|
||||
|
||||
The Admin plugin has not been offering a feature like this yet. In order to add/edit metadata e.g. for an image you had to create a [image.filename].meta.yaml for the image in your file browser and edit it in a text editor.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage and Features
|
||||
|
||||
- the plugin will create and edit [mediafile].meta.yaml files in your page folder via a simple form in the Admin plugin
|
||||
- by default you can add/edit a **title,** **alt** text, and a **caption** – see *Configuration* section below on how to adapt this for your Grav installation
|
||||
- multiline text can be added (e.g. for caption)
|
||||
- in case you are storing additional, manually added data in your [mediafile].meta.yaml file, it will not be overwritten even if the form does not let you change it
|
||||
|
||||
### How to use it
|
||||
|
||||
*(see also screenshots below)*
|
||||
|
||||
1. hover any file in your Page Media section
|
||||
2. hit the small «i» button to open the metadata form *(the regular «i» button which just showed the metadata will be overwritten by the plugin)*
|
||||
|
||||
### NOTE on setting “Auto metadata from Exif”
|
||||
|
||||
If your system is set to automatically write EXIF metadata
|
||||
`(system.yaml → media.auto_metadata_exif: true)`
|
||||
|
||||
- On **Admin Plugin 1.10:**
|
||||
Please **save the page** after uploading an image and **before** you write additional metadata using this plugin. On saving the page, the Admin Plugin will create the meta.yaml file including the EXIF data – but it won’t do so if a meta.yaml file already exists.
|
||||
- On **Admin Plugin 1.9** and **admin-addon-media-metadata >= 1.1.0:**
|
||||
There’s no problem here: the EXIF data will be written immediately upon upload whereas this plugin now only writes or edits meta.yaml files when needed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
### Grav Package Manager (GPM)
|
||||
|
||||
If you can access your Grav installation via the command line, install the plugin by typing the following from your Grav root:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
bin/gpm install admin-addon-media-metadata
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Admin Tool Web Interface
|
||||
|
||||
In the **Plugins** section, hit the **[+ Add]** button, search for Admin Addon Media Metadata and install.
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Installation
|
||||
|
||||
To install the plugin manually, download the ZIP version of the latest release of this repository and unzip it under `/your/site/grav/user/plugins`. Then rename the folder to `admin-addon-media-metadata`. You can find these files on [GitHub](https://github.com/clivebeckett/grav-plugin-admin-addon-media-metadata/releases).
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The default fields in the metadata form are alt, title, and caption. If you want to add more data to your meta.yaml files, please copy
|
||||
`user/plugins/admin-addon-media-metadata/admin-addon-media-metadata.yaml` to
|
||||
`user/config/plugins/admin-addon-media-metadata.yaml`
|
||||
and add more form fields to the form by updating the copy. E.g. if you want to add a field for a web link, you might add the following lines:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
- type: text
|
||||
label: Web link
|
||||
name: weblink
|
||||
placeholder: https://domain.tld/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The URL field will be available in your metadata form and you’ll be able edit the information.
|
||||
|
||||
### Additional Page Specific Metadata Fields (v1.1 and later)
|
||||
|
||||
You may also add page specific fields to a page’s frontmatter. *Note: The fields will be added to the form, not override the ones from the above mentioned config files:*
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
admin-addon-media-metadata:
|
||||
metadata_form:
|
||||
fields:
|
||||
-
|
||||
type: text
|
||||
label: 'Yet another field'
|
||||
name: yetAnotherField
|
||||
placeholder: 'yet yet yet'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Credits
|
||||
|
||||
I have based the plugin on Dávid Szabó’s [Admin Addon Media Rename plugin](https://github.com/david-szabo97/grav-plugin-admin-addon-media-rename). Much of the code would not have been possible for me without Dávid’s work.
|
||||
|
||||
[@renards](https://github.com/renards) helped a lot in replacing my original self-written Yaml parsing and writing code with Grav core technology and thus made version 1.0.0 possible.
