use Illuminate\Foundation\Validation\ValidatesRequests;

use Meta;

abstract class Controller extends BaseController
{
    use DispatchesCommands, ValidatesRequests;

    public function __construct()
    {
        # Default title
        Meta::title('This is default page title to complete section title');

        # Default robots

        # Default image

        Meta::set('description', 'All about this detail page');

<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
        <meta name="author" content="Lito - lito@eordes.com" />

        <title>{!! Meta::get('title') !!}</title>

        {!! Meta::tag('robots') !!}

        {!! Meta::tag('site_name', 'My site') !!}

Or you can use Blade directives:

<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
        <meta name="author" content="Lito - lito@eordes.com" />

        <title>{!! Meta::get('title') !!}</title>

        @meta('robots')

        @meta('site_name', 'My site')
        @meta('url', Request::url())
        @meta('locale', 'en_EN')

        @meta('title')
        @meta('description')

        {{-- Print custom section images and a default image after that --}}
        @meta('image', asset('images/default-logo.png'))

        {{-- Or use @metas to get all tags at once --}}
        @metas
        
    </head>

    <body>
        ...
    </body>
</html>
