Change Meta Title and Description using Vue.js
Is it possible to change anything higher than the body tag in Vue.Js? The contents for both these elements is currently stored in the JSON file that is attached to an element further down the DOM tree.
I need to try and inject a meta title and description that can be crawled by Google (ie. It injects, then renders before it gets crawled) and understand the issues with accessing the body element and higher up the DOM tree, as the current Vue JSON is injected using the App ID on a DIV lower down.
I have previously used some jQuery code to address this issue on a Square Space template in some previous work
jQuery('meta[name=description]').attr('content', 'Enter Meta Description Here');

Since what you want to change is outside the area controlled by Vue, you just use ordinary DOM manipulation. It would be something like
created() {
fetch('test.json')
.then(resp => resp.json())
.then(items => {
this.items = items;
const descEl = document.querySelector('head meta[name="description"]');
const titleEl = document.querySelector('head title');
descEl.setAttribute('content', items[0]['meta-desc']);
titleEl.textContent = items[0]['meta-title'];
})
}
Thanks Roy J. That's worked a treat - updated the site now. So this is just vanilla JS but within the Vue method because it is being used on the JSON response right? I'm sure I heard on a tutorial about a certain component way in Vue to work with <head> elements but this will do just fine.
