from foo.sitemap import FooItemAlternateHreflangSitemap, FooItemSitemap

sitemaps = {

    # Sitemaps
    (
        r'^sitemap\.xml$',

        {'sitemaps': sitemaps},

        'qartez.views.render_images_sitemap',
        {'sitemaps': foo_item_images_sitemap},
    ),
]

Note, that it’s necessary to add the `'template_name': 'qartez/rel_alternate_hreflang_sitemap.xml'` only in case if you are going to use the qartez.RelAlternateHreflangSitemap.

(
    r'^sitemap-(?P<section>.+)\.xml$',
    'django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap',
    {
        'sitemaps': sitemaps,
        'template_name': 'qartez/rel_alternate_hreflang_sitemap.xml'
    }
),

In order to just get a better idea what kind of models and views are given in the example, see the code parts below.
