CakePHP-Sitemap Plugin

A CakePHP Plugin for adding automatic XML and HTML Sitemaps to an CakePHP application

Background

• Only generates a sitemap currently for models in the core App, not in Plugins.
• Generates an HTML list using a dl list.
• Generates an sitemap.xml file as well.
• View caching used for the HTML files.
• Allows for setting a custom callback function to build urls.

##Requirements ##

• PHP 5.3+
• CakePHP 2.1+

Installation

Composer

Ensure require is present in composer.json. This will install the plugin into Plugin/Sitemap:

{
	"require": {
		"loadsys/cakephp_sitemap": "dev-master",
	}
}

GIT Submodule

In your app directory type:

git submodule add git://github.com/loadsys/CakePHP-Sitemap.git Plugin/Sitemap
git submodule init
git submodule update

###GIT Clone

In your plugin directory type:

git clone git://github.com/loadsys/CakePHP-Sitemap.git Sitemap

##Usage

• Add this this line to your bootstrap:

CakePlugin::load(array('Sitemap' => array('routes' => TRUE, 'bootstrap' => TRUE)));

• Add the behavior to the model desired to generate a sitemap for that model

public $actsAs = array(
	'Sitemap.Sitemap' => array(
		'primaryKey' => 'id', //Default primary key field
		'loc' => 'buildUrl', //Default function called that builds a url, passes parameters (Model $Model, $primaryKey)
		'lastmod' => 'modified', //Default last modified field, can be set to FALSE if no field for this
		'changefreq' => 'daily', //Default change frequency applied to all model items of this type, can be set to FALSE to pass no value
		'priority' => '0.9', //Default priority applied to all model items of this type, can be set to FALSE to pass no value
		'conditions' => array(), //Conditions to limit or control the returned results for the sitemap
	)
);

• Sitemap should now be visible at /sitemap and /sitemap.xml
