sitemap-static v0.4.4

sitemap-static

Make a sitemap for a static website based on files on disk

install

npm install -g sitemap-static

usage

Use in the root directory of the files on the site. This will only add files with .html extensions to the sitemap.

sitemap-static --prefix=http://foo.bar/foo/ . > sitemap.xml

library API

var generateSitemap = require('sitemap-static');
var fs = require('fs');

var writer = fs.createWriteStream('/path/to/your/sitemap.xml');

generateSitemap(writer, {
    findRoot: '.',
    ignoreFile: '',
    prefix: 'http://somesi.te/',
    pretty: false
})

Ignore File

Added in v0.0.1 you can pass the name of a json file to load. File file needs to be in your current working directory and should be an array of file names (without the / at the front) that you want ignored. You can ignore entire directories by leaving off the .html. Example JSON:

[
	"ignore-me.html",
	"ignore-everything-in-me/"
]

Example Command:

sitemap-static --ignore-file=ignore.json --prefix=http://foo.bar/foo/ . > sitemap.xml

Pretty URLs

If you pass --pretty to the CLI (or pretty: true to the JS API), sitemap-static will output pretty URLs rather than the whole path to each file. For example:

Example Command:

sitemap-static --prefix=http://foo.bar/foo/ --pretty . > sitemap.xml
