Magento 2 - Add meta detail on frontend page using Block

Question

I have custom block in my custom module, which call my frontend custom phtml file.

let's say file path: app\code\Vendor\Module\Block\Index\Index.php

I need to figure out the way to set meta title, meta keywords and meta description using Block

I already set the page title by using following code in Block

protected function _prepareLayout()
{

        $this->pageConfig->getTitle()->set(__('My page title'));
        return parent::_prepareLayout();
}

Any help, experience and knowledge sharing would be appreciated

Answer 1

To Get exact idea how to set page meta data via block refer vendor/magento/module-cms/Block/Page.php

In this magento have a function

protected function _prepareLayout() {
    // ...
    $this->pageConfig->getTitle()->set(__('Custom Page title'));
    $this->pageConfig->setKeywords(__('Custom Page keywords'));
    $this->pageConfig->setDescription(__('Custom Page description'));

    // ...
    return parent::_prepareLayout();
}

so in other word i can say like use $this->pageConfig->setKeywords and $this->pageConfig->setDescription respectively to set meta keyword and meta description.

Hope you will get your expected output.
