Sitemap

Sitemap comes with markdown_spa by default, it allows you to generate a sitemap.xml and robots.txt files for your website.

To add it to an existing project, run markdown_spa add Sitemap, there are two options:

• sitemap: The path to the sitemap.xml template (relative to templates directory)
• robots: The path to the robots.txt template (relative to templates directory)

Manual configuration

First, modify your config.ini file to add the following section:

[Sitemap]
sitemap = sitemap.xml
robots = robots.txt

You can then create the sitemap.xml and robots.txt files in your templates directory:

• robots.txt :

User-agent: *
Sitemap: {{ url }}/sitemap.xml
Disallow:

• sitemap.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
    {% for uri, page in tree.items() recursive %}
    <url>
        <loc>{{ url }}/{{ uri }}</loc>
        <lastmod>{{ date }}</lastmod>
        <priority>{{ page.meta.priority }}</priority>
    </url>

    {% if page.children %}
        {{ loop(page.children.items()) }}
    {% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
</urlset>

These are the default templates that comes with blank projects, you can customize them as you wish. A sitemap.xml and robots.txt will be generated at the root of your website.
