Orchard Core Content Read Time Module

CI NuGet License: MIT

An Orchard Core module that calculates and stores the estimated read time for content items.

Features

  • Calculates an estimated read time in minutes when content is published.
  • Stores the result on ContentReadTimePart for display in templates or queries.
  • Supports text from common body parts and text-bearing fields.
  • GraphQL support: Query read time data through Orchard Core's GraphQL API.

Requirements

  • .NET 8
  • Orchard Core 2.2.1 (the version referenced by this module)

Installation

Install the NuGet package:

dotnet add package Griesoft.OrchardCore.ContentReadTime

Getting started

  1. Enable the Content Read Time feature in the Orchard Core admin dashboard.
  2. Edit a content type and attach the ContentReadTimePart.
  3. Choose the source text and words-per-minute setting (defaults to 200).
  4. Use the stored minutes in templates, queries, or custom code.

Configuration

When you attach ContentReadTimePart, you can configure the source text and reading speed:

  • Source content: select a part or a field to read from.
    • Body parts: HtmlBodyPart, MarkdownBodyPart
    • Field types: HtmlField, TextField, MarkdownField
  • Words per minute: defaults to 200 if not set or invalid.

Usage

The module calculates read time during publish and stores the value in ContentReadTimePart.Minutes. Use that value anywhere you render or query content items.

Development

Building

dotnet build

Testing

dotnet test
