JSL Django Sitemap

A sitemap is an XML file on your website that tells search-engine crawlers or indexers how frequently your pages change and how “important” certain pages are in relation to other pages on your site. This information helps search engines index your site.

This Django sitemap framework library automates the creation of this XML file by letting you express this information in Python code. You have the ability to chnge and mention settings in your Django project's settings.py file. It is very convinent and easy to use library which detects the changes in your Django url configuration and reloads the new configuration making absolutely no manual interventions for your sitemap.

Example Usage

Add necessary imports

from jsl_django_sitemap.views import sitemaps
from django.contrib.sitemaps.views import sitemap
from django.urls import path

In your main django project urls.py file add below in urlpatterns

path('sitemap.xml', sitemap, {'sitemaps': sitemaps},
name='django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap'),

In your main settings.py file add below

JSL_DJANGO_SITEMAP_SETTINGS = {
	"ENABLE": True,
	"FETCH_URL_FROM": "pattern",
	"INCLUDE_APPS": ("ALL",),
	"IGNORE_URL_PATTERNS": (".*/api/v1.*", )
}

add django built in sitemap in the INSTALLED_APPS

INSTALLED_APPS = [
	# ...
	'django.contrib.sitemaps',
]

NOTE:

1. "ALL" means to include all the urls
2. If you want specific apps to be included in sitemap use below. Provide comma separated tuple containing your app name
3. "INCLUDE_APPS": ("myapp1","myapp2")
4. FETCH_URL_FROM: should be one value from the list ["name", "pattern"]
5. default for FETCH_URL_FROM is "pattern"
6. By default, if pattern is provided then "^" prefix and "$" suffix in urlpattern is removed.
7. "IGNORE_URL_PATTERNS": ("./api/v1.", ) This flag is used to ignore certain urls matching the provided tuple of patterns which are regex compatible NOTE: The sitemap application doesn't install any database tables. The only reason it needs to go into INSTALLED_APPS is so that the Loader() template loader can find the default templates.
