Sitemap generator plugin for CakePHP 3x apps

Installation

This package is available for easy installation through Packagist

composer require cwbit/cakephp-sitemap "~1.0"

Then make sure to load the plugin normally in your app. e.g.

# somewhere in config/bootstrap.php

Plugin::load('Sitemap', [
    'routes' => true,
    ]);

Finally, set your configuration array (see below)

Configuration

The plugin will look for an array of info using Configure::read('Sitemap') so just make sure such an array is loaded during bootstrapping. The easiest way to do this is to add it to your config/app.php file.

There are two sections the plugin looks for static pages and dynamic pages.

Static Pages

Static pages are nested under Sitemap.static which expects an array of URLs. This can take any URL accepted by Router::url().

	'Sitemap' => 
		'static' => 
			['_name' => 'pages:about'],
			'http://example.com/search',
			['controller'=>'Pages', 'action'=>'display', 'terms-of-service'],

Dynamic Pages

You can dynamically create links by nesting a group of config settings under Sitemap.dynamic

	'Sitemap' => 
		'dynamic' => 
			'Items' =>  #the name of the model to get entities for
				'cachekey' => 'sitemap', 	# cachekey to use (e.g. from Configure::read('Cache.sitemap'))
				'finders' => [ .. ], 		# array of model-layer finders for getting entities
				'xmlTags' =>				# xml tags to output with each sitemap line
					'loc' => 'url'				# default 'url'; entity attribute name, or array, or string
					'priority' => 0.5			# default 0.5; 0 to 1 priority
					'lastmod' => 'updated'		# default 'updated'; entity attribute giving lastmod time
					'changefreq' => 'daily'		# default 'daily'; always, hourly, daily, weekly, yearly, never		
				

Example Configuration

Here's a sample configuration straight from one of the projects using this plugin

	# .. in config/app.php
	...,
    'Sitemap' => [
        'static' => [
            ['_name' => 'user-register'],
            ['_name' => 'user-resetpw'],
            ['_name' => 'user-login'],
            ['_name' => 'user-logout'],
            ['_name' => 'user-dashboard'],
            ['_name' => 'privacy'],
            ["_name" => "contact-us"],
            ["_name" => "rewards"],
            ["_name" => "terms-of-service"],
            ["_name" => "about-us"],            
            ["_name" => "search"],
        ],
        'dynamic' => [
            'Categories' => [
                'cacheKey' => 'sitemap',
                'finders' => [
                    'visible' => [],
                    ],
                'xmlTags'=> [
                    'loc' => 'url',
                    'priority' => '0.9',
                    'changefreq' => 'always',
                ],
            ],
            'Items' => [
                'cacheKey' => 'sitemap',
                'finders' => [
                    'visible' => [],
                    ],
                'xmlTags'=> [
                    'loc' => 'permalink',
                    'priority' => '0.9',
                    'changefreq' => 'always',
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ],

which produces the following
