localsitemap 1.0.1

LocalSiteMap is an open-source Python library designed to make dataset analysis much easier by generating helpful detailed plots using matplotlib based on your dataset.

LocalSiteMap

LocalSiteMap is an open-source Python package designed for generating sitemaps from local files. It tracks HTML and HTM files, and generates complete sitemaps for the root website, including directories.

Changes in version 1.0.1:

• Added show_progress boolean to print out mapping progress, pages mapped, and files found.

Changes in version 1.0.0:

• Added initial package code, with automatic directory crawling to generate the sitemap.xml file.

[!IMPORTANT] LocalSiteMap crawls any directory found in the root folder, be sure to add exclusions for important directories, or hidden/resource/file directories.

Installation

You can install LocalSiteMap using pip:

pip install localsitemap

Supported Python Versions

LocalSiteMap supports the following Python versions:

• Python 3.6
• Python 3.7
• Python 3.8
• Python 3.9
• Python 3.10
• Python 3.11/Later (Preferred)

Please ensure that you have one of these Python versions installed before using LocalSiteMap. LocalSiteMap may not work as expected on lower versions of Python than the supported.

Features

• Directory Crawling: LocalSiteMap automatically crawls all subdirectories and files under the root directory, recursively adding them to your sitemap.
• Automatic Last Modified Checks: The package also automatically checks when the file has last been modified when adding it to the sitemap.
• • Customizable: You can customize the sitemap generation process by excluding specific directories or files.
• Easy to Use: With just a few lines of code, you can generate a complete sitemap for your local website.
• Open Source: LocalSiteMap is open source, allowing you to inspect, modify, and contribute to the code.

Usage

Generating a sitemap

from localsitemap import generate_sitemap

# Root site directory
root_directory = r"path/to/your/website/directory"

# Domain of your website (where it is hosted)
base_url_of_your_website = "https://example.com"

# List of file paths or directories to exclude from the sitemap
excluded = ["auth", "forms", "template.html", "media", ".git", ".vscode", "node_modules"]  # Example exclusions

# Generate the sitemap
generate_sitemap(root_directory, base_url_of_your_website, "sitemap.xml", excluded, show_progress=True)
print("Sitemap generated in sitemap.xml")
