I have used Jsoup library to fetch the metadata from url.
Document doc = Jsoup.connect("http://www.google.com").get();
String keywords = doc.select("meta[name=keywords]").first().attr("content");
System.out.println("Meta keyword : " + keywords);
String description = doc.select("meta[name=description]").get(0).attr("content");
Elements images = doc.select("img[src~=(?i)\\.(png|jpe?g|gif)]");
String src = images.get(0).attr("src");
System.out.println("Meta description : " + description);
System.out.println("Meta image URl : " + src);
But I want to do it in client side using javascript
You can't do it client only because of the cross-origin
issue. You need a server side script to get the content of the page.
OR You can use YQL
. In this way, the YQL
will used as proxy.
https://policies.yahoo.com/us/en/yahoo/terms/product-atos/yql/index.htm
Or you can use https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com. In this way, cors-anywhere will used as proxy:
For example:
$('button').click(function() {
$.ajax({
url: 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/' + $('input').val()
}).then(function(data) {
var html = $(data);
$('#kw').html(getMetaContent(html, 'description') || 'no keywords found');
$('#des').html(getMetaContent(html, 'keywords') || 'no description found');
$('#img').html(html.find('img').attr('src') || 'no image found');
});
});
function getMetaContent(html, name) {
return html.filter(
(index, tag) => tag && tag.name && tag.name == name).attr('content');
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="text" placeholder="Type URL here" value="http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/cors/" />
<button>Get Meta Data</button>
<pre>
<div>Meta Keyword: <div id="kw"></div></div>
<div>Description: <div id="des"></div></div>
<div>image: <div id="img"></div></div>
