OG Images for Django
Create an image once and reuse its public URL in your page metadata.
Include a Django template fragment in your page's head and read the saved image URL from the post object. Django's automatic escaping keeps titles, descriptions, and URLs inside their attributes.
Quick Start
1. Create and save your image URL
Get a private API key through email access and set OGMAGIC_API_KEY in your server or terminal environment. Run this request when publishing content, then save the returned url with the page:
curl https://www.ogmagic.dev/api/images \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OGMAGIC_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"title":"My article","template":"gradient-mesh"}'
# Save the returned url with your content. Keep the API key private.You can also create an image in the editor and copy its hosted URL. Keep the API key private; the returned image URL is public.
2. Publish it in your Django metadata
Use your saved URL in the example below. Replace any placeholder URL with the creation response's url, or pass it from the stored content field. The dimensions shown are for the default 1200 × 630 image; use the returned dimensions for custom sizes.
{% if post.og_image_url %}
<meta name="description" content="{{ post.excerpt }}" />
<meta property="og:title" content="{{ post.title }}" />
<meta property="og:description" content="{{ post.excerpt }}" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:image" content="{{ post.og_image_url }}" />
<meta property="og:image:width" content="1200" />
<meta property="og:image:height" content="630" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta name="twitter:image" content="{{ post.og_image_url }}" />
{% endif %}💡 Pass a post object with title, excerpt and og_image_url fields from the view, then include "includes/social_meta.html" in the document head. Keep automatic escaping enabled and avoid the safe filter for these fields. Create images in a publishing task or management command, not while rendering the template.
Reference: Django documentation. After deploying, check the page with the OG tag checker.
