Extracting Keyword for Rails Meta Keywords

Neo · December 5, 2020, 11:04am

Noticed that Discourse does not use "meta keyword" and probably with good reason since this meta "keyword" tag is considered obsolete and not a used SEO signal by Google.

However, it never hurts to have this meta tag and I have been considering to add this kind of code to our Discourse layout to extract keywords from the posts and create a meta keyword tag, just because we can and why not?

require 'rake_text'
rake = RakeText.new,  RakeText.SMART

text = "dkjflksdajfl fdfsd dsss dd dfsdf dssls slslls sssl  The dependency tzinfo-data (>= 0) will be unused by any of the platforms Bundler is installing for. Bundler i
 installing for ruby but the dependency is only for x86-mingw32, x86-mswin32, x64-mingw32, java. To add those platforms to the bundle, run `bundle lock --add-platform x86-mingw32 x86
mswin32 x64-mingw32 java`"

raw = rake.analyse text, RakeText.SMART
arr = []
raw.each do |word, score|
 arr << word if ((score > 3) && (score < 10))
end

meta_keys = arr.join(",")

meta_keys
 => "dependency tzinfo-data,x86-mingw32,x64-mingw32,java,bundle"
