Google AMP - Social Widgets

Amp provides support to show social widgets on the page without having to load any external library. In this chapter, we are going to discuss some popular social widgets listed here −

  • Google AMP − Facebook

  • Google AMP − Twitter

  • Google AMP − Pinterest

Google Amp - Facebook

Using amp-facebook component, we can connect to facebook and display post, video, comment in a amp page.

To make use of amp-facebook, we need to add the following script to the page −

<script async custom-element = "amp-facebook" 
   src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-facebook-0.1.js">
</script>

Amp-facebook tag format

<amp-facebook 
   width = "552" 
   height = "310"
   layout = "responsive"
   data-href = "https://www.facebook.com/tutorialspointindia/
   posts/1784197988358159">
</amp-facebook>

A working example for amp-facebook is shown here −

</html>

Output

Amp Facebook Post

The attributes available on amp-facebook are

  • data-href (mandatory) − Here you need to specify the facebook url.

  • data-embed-as− The options available are post, video and comment. By default, it is post.

  • data-locale (mandatory) − It shows the display in locale language, you can change it as per your choice.

  • data-include-comment-parent− It takes values true or false. It is false by default. When you use data-embed-as option as comment, incase you need the parent reply to the comment, you can set this option as true.

So far we have seen how to add post/video and comment to the amp page. Incase we need to add the facebook page, amp has a component called amp-facebook-page.

Amp Facebook Page Plugin

Amp-facebook-page component gives us the facebook page details we want.To work with amp-facebook-page we need to add following script −

<script async custom-element = "amp-facebook-page" src = "
   https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-facebook-page-0.1.js">
</script>

A working example using amp-facebook-page is shown here −

Google AMP - Pinterest

Amp provides a pinterest widget using amp-pinterest component. We can use this component to show pinterest widget, pinterest save button and pinterest follow button.

To start working with amp-pinterest, we need to add the following script −

<script async custom-element="amp-pinterest" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-pinterest-0.1.js">
</script>

Amp-pinterest tag

<amp-pinterest width = 300 height = 450 data-do = "embedPin"
   data-url = "https://in.pinterest.com/pin/856739529089490354/">
</amp-pinterest>

Pinterest Widget

To show pinterest widget, we need to use the attribute data-do="embedPin". A working example for the same is shown here −

Google Amp - Twitter

Amp has a component to show twitter feeds using amp-twitter.

To work with amp-twitter we need to add following script −

 
<script async custom-element = "amp-twitter" 
src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-twitter-0.1.js">
</script>

Amp-twitter tag

 
<amp-twitter width = "375" height = "472" 
   layout = "responsive" data-tweetid = "885634330868850689">
</amp-twitter>
