Fork CMS Sitemaps module

The Sitemaps module lets you automatically generate a sitemapindex and all its sitemaps.

Download:

• Module for Fork CMS 5.*

Features:

• Creates a sitemap.xml and a file per sitemap-provider (like f.e.: Pages, Blog, Realizations, Jobs, ...).
• You can easily add custom modules to the sitemap generator.
• There is a re-generate button in the backend, so you can regenerate all sitemaps.

Installation

• Execute composer require jeroendesloovere/sitemap-bundle
• Then copy/paste this module to your fork cms.
• Add in app/AppKernel:

new \Backend\Modules\Sitemaps\Sitemaps(),
new \JeroenDesloovere\SitemapBundle\SitemapBundle(),

• Install the module.
• Add in .gitignore:

sitemap.xml
sitemap_*.xml

• Add in .htaccess:

# allow sitemaps
RewriteRule ^sitemap.xml$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^sitemap_(.*).xml$ - [L]

• Add in composer.json for post-update-cmd:

"php bin/console sitemap:generate"

• If you are using capistrano to deploy, add the following to deploy.rb:

## Generate sitemap
namespace :sitemap do
  desc "Generate the sitemap.xml and sitemap files per provider."
  task :generate do
    on roles(:db) do
      execute "cd #{current_path} && bin/console sitemap:generate"
    end
  end
end

before "deploy:cleanup", "sitemap:generate"
after "deploy:rollback", "sitemap:generate"

Example: "How to create your custom sitemap?"

We need to notify Symfony that we have a new sitemap provider. Add the following somewhere in your services.yaml

services:
    App\SitemapProviders\NewsArticleSitemapProvider:
        tags:
            - { name: sitemap.provider }

When the SitemapGenerator needs to generate the sitemap(s), it will ask all SitemapProviders to fill in the items. Create something like the following in your app.

<?php

namespace App\SitemapProviders;

use JeroenDesloovere\SitemapBundle\Item\ChangeFrequency;
use JeroenDesloovere\SitemapBundle\Provider\SitemapProvider;
use JeroenDesloovere\SitemapBundle\Provider\SitemapProviderInterface;

class NewsArticleSitemapProvider extends SitemapProvider implements SitemapProviderInterface
{
    /** @var NewsArticleRepository */
    private $articleRepository;

    public function __construct(NewsArticleRepository $articleRepository)
    {
        $this->articleRepository = $articleRepository;

        // `NewsArticle::class` would even be better then just `NewsArticle`
        // because you can then use it with doctrine events.
        parent::__construct('NewsArticle');
    }

    public function createItems(): void
    {
        /** @var Article[] $articles */
        $articles = $this->articleRepository->findAll();
        foreach ($articles as $article) {
            $this->createItem('/nl/xxx/url-to-article', $article->getEditedOn(), ChangeFrequency::monthly());
        }
    }
}

How to generate the sitemaps?

You can now generate the sitemap(s) by executing:

bin/console sitemap:generate

Use a cronjob (f.e. every hour) to have up-to-date sitemaps.

OR if you want to use PHP

$this->getContainer()->get('sitemap.generator')->generate();
