gatsby-plugin-sitemap

Create a sitemap for your Gatsby site.

NOTE: This plugin only generates output when run in production mode! To test your sitemap, run: gatsby build && gatsby serve

Install

npm install --save gatsby-plugin-sitemap

How to Use

// In your gatsby-config.js
siteMetadata: {
  siteUrl: `https://www.example.com`,
},
plugins: [`gatsby-plugin-sitemap`]

Above is the minimal configuration required to have it work. By default, the generated sitemap will include all of your site's pages, except the ones you exclude.

Options

The defaultOptions here can be overridden.

The options are as follows:

  • query (GraphQL Query) The query for the data you need to generate the sitemap. It's required to get the site.siteMetadata.siteUrl. If you override the query, you probably will need to set a serializer to return the correct data for the sitemap.
  • output (string) The filepath and name. Defaults to /sitemap.xml.
  • exclude (array of strings) An array of paths to exclude from the sitemap.
  • createLinkInHead (boolean) Whether to populate the <head> of your site with a link to the sitemap.
  • serialize (function) Takes the output of the data query and lets you return an array of sitemap entries.

We ALWAYS exclude the following pages: /dev-404-page/,/404 &/offline-plugin-app-shell-fallback/, this cannot be changed.

Example:

// In your gatsby-config.js
siteMetadata: {
  siteUrl: `https://www.example.com`,
},
plugins: [
  {
    resolve: `gatsby-plugin-sitemap`,
    options: {
      output: `/some-other-sitemap.xml`,
      // Exclude specific pages or groups of pages using glob parameters
      // See: https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch
      // The example below will exclude the single `path/to/page` and all routes beginning with `category`
      exclude: ["/category/*", `/path/to/page`],
      query: `
        {
          site {
            siteMetadata {
              siteUrl
            }
          }

          allSitePage {
            edges {
              node {
                path
              }
            }
          }
      }`,
      serialize: ({ site, allSitePage }) =>
        allSitePage.edges.map(edge => {
          return {
            url: site.siteMetadata.siteUrl + edge.node.path,
            changefreq: `daily`,
            priority: 0.7,
          }
        })
    }
  }
]

Sitemap Index

We also support generating sitemap index.

// In your gatsby-config.js
siteMetadata: {
  siteUrl: `https://www.example.com`,
},
plugins: [
  {
    resolve: `gatsby-plugin-sitemap`,
    options: {
      sitemapSize: 5000
    }
  }
]

Above is the minimal configuration to split a large sitemap. When the number of URLs in a sitemap is more than 5000, the plugin will a create sitemap (e.g. sitemap-0.xml, sitemap-1.xml) and index (e.g. sitemap.xml) files.
