Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ LinkSet

Constructor

Options:

  • :adapter - instance of a class with a write method which takes a SitemapGenerator::Location and raw XML data and persists it. The default adapter is a SitemapGenerator::FileAdapter which simply writes files to the filesystem. You can use a SitemapGenerator::WaveAdapter for uploading sitemaps to remote servers - useful for read-only hosts such as Heroku. Or you can provide an instance of your own class to provide custom behavior.

  • :default_host - host including protocol to use in all sitemap links e.g. en.google.ca

  • :public_path - Full or relative path to the directory to write sitemaps into. Defaults to the public/ directory in your application root directory or the current working directory.

  • :sitemaps_host - String. Host including protocol to use when generating a link to a sitemap file i.e. the hostname of the server where the sitemaps are hosted. The value will differ from the hostname in your sitemap links. For example: ‘’amazon.aws.com/‘`.

    Note that ‘include_index` is automatically turned off when the `sitemaps_host` does not match `default_host`. Because the link to the sitemap index file that would otherwise be added would point to a different host than the rest of the links in the sitemap. Something that the sitemap rules forbid.

  • :sitemaps_path - path fragment within public to write sitemaps to e.g. ‘en/’. Sitemaps are written to public_path + sitemaps_path

  • :filename - symbol giving the base name for files (default :sitemap). The names are generated like “##filename.xml.gz”, “##filename1.xml.gz”, “##filename2.xml.gz” with the first file being the index if you have more than one sitemap file.

  • :include_index - Boolean. Whether to <b>add a link pointing to the sitemap index<b> to the current sitemap. This points search engines to your Sitemap Index to include it in the indexing of your site. Default is ‘false`. Turned off when

`sitemaps_host` is set or within a `group()` block.  Turned off because Google can complain
 about nested indexing and because if a robot is already reading your sitemap, they
 probably know about the index.
  • :include_root - Boolean. Whether to **add the root** url i.e. ‘/’ to the current sitemap. Default is ‘true`. Turned off within a `group()` block.

  • :search_engines - Hash. A hash of search engine names mapped to ping URLs. See ping_search_engines.

  • :verbose - If true, output a summary line for each sitemap and sitemap index that is created. Default is false.

  • :create_index - Supported values: ‘true`, `false`, `:auto`. Default: `:auto`. Whether to create a sitemap index file. If `true` an index file is always created, regardless of how many links are in your sitemap. If `false` an index file is never created. If `:auto` an index file is created only if your sitemap has more than one sitemap file.

  • :namer - A SitemapGenerator::SimpleNamer instance for generating the sitemap and index file names. See :filename if you don’t need to do anything fancy, and can accept the default naming conventions.

Deprecated

  • :sitemaps_namer - Deprecated, use :namer. A SitemapGenerator::SitemapNamer instance for generating the sitemap names.

  • :sitemap_index_namer - Deprecated, use :namer. A SitemapGenerator::SitemapIndexNamer instance for generating the sitemap index name.

KJV: When adding a new option be sure to include it in ‘options_for_group()` if the option should be inherited by groups.

#add_to_index(link, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Add a link to the Sitemap Index.

  • link - A string link e.g. ‘/sitemaps/sitemap1.xml.gz’ or a SitemapFile instance.

  • options - A hash of options including ‘:lastmod`, ’:priority`, ‘:changefreq` and `:host`

The ‘:host` option defaults to the value of `sitemaps_host` which is the host where your sitemaps reside. If no `sitemaps_host` is set, the `default_host` is used.

end

#create(opts = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Create a new sitemap index and sitemap files. Pass a block with calls to the following methods:

  • add - Add a link to the current sitemap

  • group - Start a new group of sitemaps

Options

Any option supported by new can be passed. The options will be set on the instance using the accessor methods. This is provided mostly as a convenience.

In addition to the options to new, the following options are supported:

  • :finalize - The sitemaps are written as they get full and at the end

of the block. Pass false as the value to prevent the sitemap or sitemap index from being finalized. Default is true.

If you are calling create more than once in your sitemap configuration file, make sure that you set a different sitemaps_path or filename for each call otherwise the sitemaps may be overwritten.

end

#group(opts = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Create a new group of sitemap files.

Returns a new LinkSet instance with the options passed in set on it. All groups share the sitemap index, which is not affected by any of the options passed here.

Options

Any of the options to LinkSet.new. Except for :public_path which is shared by all groups.

The current options are inherited by the new group of sitemaps. The only exceptions being :include_index and :include_root which default to false.

Pass a block to add links to the new LinkSet. If you pass a block the sitemaps will be finalized when the block returns.

If you are not changing any of the location settings like filename<tt>, <tt>sitemaps_path, sitemaps_host or namer, links you add within the group will be added to the current sitemap. Otherwise the current sitemap file is finalized and a new sitemap file started, using the options you specified.

Most commonly, you’ll want to give the group’s files a distinct name using the filename option.

Options like :default_host can be used and it will only affect the links within the group. Links added outside of the group will revert to the previous default_host.

#include_index?Boolean

Return a boolean indicating hether to add a link to the sitemap index file to the current sitemap.

Turned off when `sitemaps_host` is set or within a `group()` block.

end

#ping_search_engines(*args) ⇒ Object

Ping search engines to notify them of updated sitemaps.

Search engines are already notified for you if you run ‘rake sitemap:refresh`. If you want to ping search engines separately to your sitemap generation, run `rake sitemap:refresh:no_ping` and then run a rake task or script which calls this method as in the example below.

Arguments

  • sitemap_index_url - The full URL to your sitemap index file. If not provided the location is based on the ‘host` you have set and any other options like your `sitemaps_path`. The URL will be CGI escaped for you when included as part of the search engine ping URL.

Options

A hash of one or more search engines to ping in addition to the default search engines. The key is the name of the search engine as a string or symbol and the value is the full URL to ping with a string interpolation that will be replaced by the CGI escaped sitemap index URL. If you have any literal percent characters in your URL you need to escape them with ‘%%`. For example if your sitemap index URL is `example.com/sitemap.xml.gz` and your ping url is `example.com/100%%/ping?url=%s` then the final URL that is pinged will be `example.com/100%/ping?url=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fsitemap.xml.gz`

Examples

Both of these examples will ping the default search engines in addition to ‘superengine.com/ping?url=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fsitemap.xml.gz`

SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.host('http://example.com/')
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.ping_search_engines(:super_engine => 'http://superengine.com/ping?url=%s')

Is equivalent to:

SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.ping_search_engines('http://example.com/sitemap.xml.gz', :super_engine => 'http://superengine.com/ping?url=%s')

Return the full url to the sitemap index file. When ‘create_index` is `false` the first sitemap is technically the index, so this will be its URL. It’s important to use this method to get the index url because ‘sitemap_index.location.url` will not be correct in such situations.
