To enable sitemaps on your web application you should use the `iris.WithSitemap` Configurator. This function accepts the full scheme and domain of the exposed application. ```go app := iris.New() // [...] app.Listen(":8080", iris.WithSitemap("http://localhost:8080")) ``` The application will loop through registered *static* routes and it will add each one of them to the sitemap file. By default only the `` XML element will be filled unless the route's fields `LastMod`, `ChangeFreq` or/and `Priority`[\*](https://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html) are set. ```go app.Get("/home", handler).SetLastMod(time.Now()).SetChangeFreq("hourly").SetPriority(0.8) ``` > A static route is exposed on GET HTTP Method and its path does not contain a dynamic parameter. e.g. /home, /about but not /user/{id:uint64} and e.t.c. Example Code: ```go package main import ( "time" "github.com/kataras/iris/v12" ) const startURL = "http://localhost:8080" func main() { app := newApp() // http://localhost:8080/sitemap.xml // Lists only online GET static routes. // // Reference: https://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html app.Listen(":8080", iris.WithSitemap(startURL)) } func newApp() *iris.Application { app := iris.New() app.Logger().SetLevel("debug") lastModified, _ := time.Parse("2006-01-02T15:04:05-07:00", "2019-12-13T21:50:33+02:00") app.Get("/home", handler).SetLastMod(lastModified).SetChangeFreq("hourly").SetPriority(1) app.Get("/articles", handler).SetChangeFreq("daily") app.Get("/path1", handler) app.Get("/path2", handler) app.Post("/this-should-not-be-listed", handler) app.Get("/this/{myparam}/should/not/be/listed", handler) app.Get("/this-should-not-be-listed-offline", handler).SetStatusOffline() // These should be excluded as well app.Get("/about", handler).ExcludeSitemap() app.Get("/offline", handler).SetStatusOffline() return app } func handler(ctx iris.Context) { ctx.WriteString(ctx.Path()) } ``` ## Localization Sitemap translations are automatically set to each route by path prefix if `app.I18n.PathRedirect` is true or by subdomain if `app.I18n.Subdomain` is true or by URL query parameter if `app.I18n.URLParameter` is not empty.
