robots-generator v2.3.6

Robots Generator

Produces a simple, valid robots.txt to be parsed by web crawlers. Adheres to the specification provided by Google, however currently only supports one User-Agent rule. Requires Node 4+. Installed through NPM with:

npm install robots-generator --save-dev

Simply require the module and execute it with an optional array of configuration.

• User-Agent: A means of identifying a specific crawler or set of crawlers.
• Allow: An array of directories that a crawler is allowed to access.
• Disallow: An array of directories that a crawler is not allowed to access.
• Sitemap: Your website's sitemap URL.

var robots = require('robots-generator');

robots({
    useragent: '*',
    allow: ['folder1/', 'folder2/'],
    disallow: ['cgi-bin/'],
    sitemap: 'http://haydenbleasel.com/sitemap.xml'
}, function (error, robots) {
    // Join ('\n') and write this to a file
    console.log(error, robots);
});

If you need an ES5 build for legacy purposes, just require the ES5 file:

var robots = require('robots-generator/es5');

Outputs the following file:

User-agent: *
Allow: /folder1/
Allow: /folder2/
Disallow: cgi-bin/
Sitemap: http://haydenbleasel.com/sitemap.xml

To build the ES5 version:

npm install -g babel-cli
babel --presets es2015 index.js --out-file es5.js
