# `useHead` # `useHead`
::ReadMore{link="/guide/features/head-management"} Nuxt provides the `useHead` composable to add and customize the head properties of individual pages of your Nuxt app. `useHead` uses [@vueuse/head](https://github.com/vueuse/head) under the hood.
Nuxt provides a composable to update the head properties of your page with an [`MetaObject`](/api/composables/use-head/#metaobject) of meta properties with keys corresponding to meta tags:
`title`, `base`, `script`, `noscript`, `style`, `meta` and `link`, as well as `htmlAttrs` and `bodyAttrs`. Alternatively, you can pass a function returning the object for reactive metadata.
```js
useHead(options: MetaObject)
```
::alert{icon=👉} ::alert{icon=👉}
**`useHead` only works during `setup`**. **`useHead` must be placed within the `setup` function**.
:: ::
## Example ## Type
The example below changes the website's title in the `meta` and inserts a Google Font using the `link` property. ```ts
useHead(meta: Computable<MetaObject>): void
```js interface MetaObject extends Record<string, any> {
export default { charset?: string
setup () { viewport?: string
useHead({ meta?: Array<Record<string, any>>
meta: [ link?: Array<Record<string, any>>
{ name: 'title' content: 'Nuxt 3 - The Hybrid Vue Framework' } style?: Array<Record<string, any>>
], script?: Array<Record<string, any>>
link: [ noscript?: Array<Record<string, any>>
{ rel: 'preconnect', href: 'https://fonts.googleapis.com' }, titleTemplate?: string | ((title: string) => string)
{ rel: 'preconnect', href: 'https://fonts.gstatic.com', crossorigin: '' }, title?: string
{ rel: 'stylesheet', href: 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto&display=swap', crossorigin: '' }, bodyAttrs?: Record<string, any>
] htmlAttrs?: Record<string, any>
})
}
} }
``` ```
## `MetaObject` Application-wide configuration of the head metadata is possible through [nuxt.config](/api/configuration/nuxt.config#head), or by placing the `useHead` in the `app.vue` file.
* **charset**: the character encoding in which the document is encoded => `<meta charset="<value>" />` (default: `'utf-8'`) ::alert{type=info}
* **viewport**: configuration of the viewport (the area of the window in which web content can be seen) => `<meta name="viewport" content="<value>" />` (default: `'width=device-width, initial-scale=1'`) The properties of `useHead` can be dynamic, accepting `ref`, `computed` and `reactive` properties. `meta` parameter can also accept a function returning an object to make the entire object reactive.
* **meta**: array, each item maps to a newly-created `<meta>` element, where object properties map to attributes. ::
* **link**: array, each item maps to a newly-created `<link>` element, where object properties map to attributes.
* **style**: array, each item maps to a newly-created `<style>` element, where object properties map to attributes.
* **script**: array, each item maps to a newly-created `<script>` element, where object properties map to attributes.
* **noscript**: array, each item maps to a newly-created `<noscript>` element, where object properties map to attributes.
All elements in the meta object are optional. You can also pass only single values. ## Parameters
### `meta`
**Type**: `MetaObject`
An object accepting the following head metadata:
- `charset`
**Type**: `string`
**Default**: `utf-8`
Specifies character encoding for the HTML document.
- `viewport`
**Type**: `string`
**Default**: `width=device-width, initial-scale=1`
Configures the viewport (the user's visible area of a web page).
- `meta`
**Type**: `Array<Record<string, any>>`
**Default**: `width=device-width, initial-scale=1`
Each element in the array is mapped to a newly-created `<meta>` tag, where object properties are mapped to the corresponding attributes.
- `link`
**Type**: `Array<Record<string, any>>`
Each element in the array is mapped to a newly-created `<link>` tag, where object properties are mapped to the corresponding attributes.
- `style`
**Type**: `Array<Record<string, any>>`
Each element in the array is mapped to a newly-created `<style>` tag, where object properties are mapped to the corresponding attributes.
- `script`
**Type**: `Array<Record<string, any>>`
Each element in the array is mapped to a newly-created `<script>` tag, where object properties are mapped to the corresponding attributes.
- `noscript`
**Type**: `Array<Record<string, any>>`
Each element in the array is mapped to a newly-created `<noscript>` tag, where object properties are mapped to the corresponding attributes.
- `titleTemplate`
**Type**: `string` | `((title: string) => string)`
Configures dynamic template to customize the page title on an individual page.
- `title`
**Type**: `string`
Sets static page title on an individual page.
- `bodyAttrs`
**Type**: `Record<string, any>`
Sets attributes of the `<body>` tag. Each object property is mapped to the corresponding attribute.
- `htmlAttrs`
**Type**: `Record<string, any>`
Sets attributes of the `<html>` tag. Each object property is mapped to the corresponding attribute.
## Examples
### Customize Metadata
The example below changes the website's `title` and `description` using `meta` option of the `useHead` composable:
```vue
<script setup>
const title = ref('My App')
const description = ref('My amazing Nuxt app')
useHead({
title,
meta: [
{
name: 'description',
content: description
}
]
})
</script>
```
### Add Dynamic Title
In the example below, `titleTemplate` is set either as a string with the `%s` placeholder or as a `function`, which allows greater flexibility in setting the page title dynamically for each route of your Nuxt app:
```vue [app.vue]
<script setup>
useHead({
// as a string,
// where `%s` is replaced with the title
titleTemplate: '%s - Site Title',
// ... or as a function
titleTemplate: (productCategory) => {
return productCategory
? `${productCategory} - Site Title`
: 'Site Title'
}
})
</script>
```
`nuxt.config` is also used as an alternative way of setting the page title. However, `nuxt.config` does not allow the page title to be dynamic. Therefore, it is recommended to use `titleTemplate` in the `app.vue` file to add a dynamic title, which is then applied to all routes of your Nuxt app.
### Add External CSS
The example below inserts Google Fonts using the `link` property of the `useHead` composable:
```vue
<script setup>
useHead({
link: [
{
rel: 'preconnect',
href: 'https://fonts.googleapis.com'
},
{
rel: 'stylesheet',
href: 'https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Roboto&display=swap',
crossorigin: ''
}
]
})
</script>
```
### Add Third-party Script
The example below inserts a third-party script using the `script` property of the `useHead` composable:
```vue
<script setup>
useHead({
script: [
{
src: 'https://third-party-script.com',
body: true
}
]
})
</script>
```
You can use the `body: true` option to add the above script at the end of the `<body>` tag.
