sitemap-creator

A sitemap generator based on glob patterns. The lastmod tag can also be set to pull from the last modified time of a different file.

Installation

Usage

Basic usage

const sitemap = require('sitemap-creator')

sitemap({
		url: 'http://www.example.com/',
		content: {
			'/': {
				priority: 1,
				lastmod: '2015-06-27T15:30:00.000Z'
			},
			'/page/*': {
				priority: 0.7,
				changefreq: 'monthly'
			}
		},
		outputFile: './sitemap.xml'
	})
	.then(console.log)
	.catch(console.error)

Dynamic timestamps:

A function or a string can be supplied as the lastMod.

sitemap({
		url: 'http://www.example.com/',
		content: {
			'/content/**/*': {
				lastMod: '2017-02-22T21:31:44.000Z'
			},
			'/page/*': {
				fileTimestamp: function(path, cb){
					const json = require('./data.json')
					cb(json.lastModified)
				}
			}
		},
	})
	.then(console.log)
	.catch(console.error)

Dyanmic file timestamps:

A function or a string can be supplied as the fileTimestamp. This will get the last modified date from the file to use as the lastmod for the pages that match the glob path.

sitemap({
		url: 'http://www.example.com/',
		content: {
			'/content/**/*': {
				fileTimestamp: './src/content.json'
			},
			'/page/*': {
				fileTimestamp: function(path, cb){
					path = path.replace('/page/', '')
					cb('./views/' + path + '.pug')
				}
			}
		},
	})
	.then(console.log)
	.catch(console.error)

Excluding paths:

sitemap({
		url: 'http://www.example.com/',
		exclude: [
			'/admin/**/*',
			'/login'
		],
	})
	.then(console.log)
	.catch(console.error)
