Spree Sitemap is a sitemap generator based on the sitemap_generator gem. It adheres to the Sitemap 0.9 protocol specification.

• Notifies search engine of new sitemaps (Google, Yahoo, Ask, Bing)
• Supports large huge product catalogs
• Adheres to 0.9 Sitemap protocol specification
• Compresses sitemaps with gzip
• Provides basic sitemap of a Spree site (products, taxons, login page, signup page)
• Easily add additional sitemaps for pages you add to your spree site
• Supports Amazon S3 and other hosting services
• Thin wrapper over battle tested sitemap generator

By default this gem will serve sitemap files directly from your own domain, you can override the default action by adding the following content to config/initializers/spree_sitemap.rb

::SpreeSitemap.serve_directly = false

For other options, please check out the README for the sitemap_generator.

1. Add this extension to your Gemfile with this line:

gem 'spree_sitemap', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_sitemap'

gem 'spree_sitemap', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_sitemap', branch: 'X-X-stable'

The branch option is important: it must match the version of Spree you're using. For example, use 3-0-stable if you're using Spree 3-0-stable or any 3.0.x version.

2. Install the gem using Bundler:

bundle install

3. Copy & run migrations

bundle exec rails g spree_sitemap:install

4. Restart your server

If your server was running, restart it so that it can find the assets properly.

5. Add sitemap to your .gitignore

echo "public/sitemap*" >> .gitignore

6. Setup a daily cron job to regenrate your sitemap via the rake sitemap:refresh task. If you use the Whenever gem, add this to your config/schedule.rb

every 1.day, at: '5:00 am' do
  rake '-s sitemap:refresh'
end

7. make sure crawlers can find the sitemap, by adding the following line to your public/robots.txt with your correct domain name

echo "Sitemap: http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml.gz" >> public/robots.txt
