### Automatic parsing of JSON-LD ### Automatic parsing of JSON-LD
To enable automatic parsing of JSON-LD, add the following middleware classes to your Django project's MIDDLEWARE setting in settings.py: The library can automatically add signposts to web pages that already make
metadata available via JSON-LD in HTML via `<script type="application/ld+json">` tags. To enable automatic parsing of JSON-LD, add the following middleware classes to your Django project's MIDDLEWARE setting in settings.py:

This setup allows django_signposting to extract JSON-LD embedded in HTML `<script type="application/ld+json">` tags This extracts supported properties from JSON-LD and adds the corresponding signposting headers to the `HttpResponse`.
and add the corresponding signposting headers.
Its compatible with tools that provide JSON-LD, such as [django-json-ld](https://pypi.org/project/django-json-ld/). Automatic parsing is compatible with extensions that provide JSON-LD as part of a web page, such as [django-json-ld](https://pypi.org/project/django-json-ld/).
It can also extract signposts from rich metadata descriptions of datasets in [RO-Crate](https://www.researchobject.org/ro-crate) format (see [example views](./example/example/views.py)) It can also extract signposts from rich metadata descriptions of datasets such as [RO-Crate](https://www.researchobject.org/ro-crate) format (see [example views](./example/example/views.py)).
> Note: The middleware order is important! Place `SignpostingMiddleware` before `JsonLdSignpostingParserMiddleware` to ensure proper extraction and processing of JSON-LD content. > Note: The middleware order is important!

### Manual parsing of JSON-LD
If you have metadata in JSON-LD available, but it is not rendered as part of the response, you can still parse it manually to create signposting links:
```python
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django_signposting.utils import add_signposts, jsonld_to_signposts
response = HttpResponse("Hello World")
json_ld = {
"@context": "http://schema.org/",
"@graph": [
...
]
}
signposts = jsonld_to_signposts(json_ld)
add_signposts(response, **signposts)
```
### Manual signposting ### Manual signposting
For cases where JSON-LD is not embedded, or you want to specify headers manually, you can use the `add_signposts` utility. For cases where JSON-LD is not embedded, or you want to specify headers manually, you can use the `add_signposts` utility.
