Add support for Twitter's new "cards" metatags

I just realease a sandbox project here: http://drupal.org/sandbox/nico059/1741784
I name it metatag_twittercard (could be changed if needed).
The code is inspired from the metatag_opengraph module.

Very basic for now (only support summary card type), but I will add the 2 others type asap
I'm waiting to participate to Twitter Card to test this module, so use at your own risk ;-)

Twitter Cards support the OpenGraph meta tags, so I leverage on this metatags (og:xyz..) for the description, title, image etc ... Not sure yet if this is the good strategy or if it's better to make metatag_twittercard independant (without dependency to the metatag_opengraph module)

Give me some feedback on this module and which feature you see important,

Enjoy ;-)

+1
I vote for this feature too.

I ma also following this thread since I am really interested.

I used it, and added the 'image' and 'description' tag. Waiting for twitter approval now.

Hi Tanzaho, thank you for your interest in this small module.

Could you please share the code you added for image and description? A patch, I could merge ?

Thx,
Nico.

I just sent you a mail. Check it out...

I guess the next step would be for nico059 to make a patch on from Meta tags HEAD, adding his module as a sub module of Meta tags.

Patch rolled from latest 7.x-1.x.

I also started a sandbox project (see #10) to extend metatag with Twitter Cards metatag. Here is my work patched on nico059 sandbox.
This patch adds more twitter cards metatags and is using a proper metatag_twittercard_metatag_config_default_alter() function. I also added the dependency in the info file.

I'am also thinking in adding more functionality for "media" files such as images and audio/video. So that the "player" and "image" Twitter Card can be used.

Here is a patch from miechiel sandbox with some little fixes (3 whitepace issue and a double break at the same spot).

@DamienMcKenna: Anything else to have this committed to metatag?

The patch in #14 works partially as the "twitter:card" metatag's options and human-readable name are switched so it outputs the administrative title instead of the actual value in the metatag. Also, the site's twitter account should have its context set to to global.

Patch attached.

Doh! Correct patch attached.

getting my butt kicked. this one should do it.

Awesome :)

This needs to be documented on the module front page.

Added to homepage.

Thanks!

Added a link to the corresponding Nodewords issue.
