You need to update your application configuration in order to register the package so it can be loaded by Laravel, just update your config/app.php file adding the following code at the end of your 'providers' section:

config/app.php

// file START ommited
    'providers' => [
        // other providers ommited
        'Orzcc\AutoMeta\Providers\AutoMetaServiceProvider',
    ],
// file END ommited

3 - Facade

In order to use the Meta facade, you need to register it on the config/app.php file, you can do that the following way:

// file START ommited
    'aliases' => [
        // other Facades ommited
        'Meta'   => 'Orzcc\AutoMeta\Facades\AutoMeta',
    ],
// file END ommited

4 - Usage

class CommomController extends Controller
{

    /**
     * @return \Illuminate\View\View
     */
    public function index()
    {
        Meta::setTitle('Home');
        Meta::setDescription('This is my page description');
        
        $posts = Post::all();

    }

    /**
     * @return \Illuminate\View\View
     */
    public function show($id)
    {
        $post = Post::find($id);

        Meta::setTitle($post->title);
        Meta::setDescription($post->resume);
        Meta::addMeta('article:published_time', $post->published_date->toW3CString(), 'property');
        Meta::addMeta('article:section', $post->category, 'property');
        Meta::addKeyword(['key1', 'key2', 'key3']);
