=HasSitemap
This plugin allow your sites provide in an easy way sitemap and/or sitemaps index to
improve search engine indexing.
For more details about the sitemap protocol see [1]
=Example
For sitemap :
controller MyController::ActiveController::Base
has_sitemap :data => :my_func
def index
end
# Others public methods
private
def my_func
# Create sitemap array
end
end
The my_func function must return an array of hashes, where each hash contains the keys :
loc, lastmod, priority (optional), changefreq (optional). The changefreq must be a valid value
as described in [1].
The plugin add an aditional method to help in the array construction, called sitemap_entry.
See the docs for more details.
For sitemap_index :
controller MyController::ActiveController::Base
has_sitemap_index :data => :my_func
def index
end
# Others public methods
private
def my_func
# Create sitemap array
end
end
The value returned by my_func is the same as described for has_sitemap, with loc and loatmod (optional)
has keys for each item.
To access to your sitemap or sitemap_index just use :
http://localhost:3000/my/sitemap.xml
http://localhost:3000/my/sitemap_index.xml
