Laravel Sitemappable

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require vursion/laravel-sitemappable

No need to register the service provider if you're using Laravel >= 5.5. The package will automatically register itself. Once the package is installed, you can register the service provider in config/app.php in the providers array:

'providers' => [
    ...
    Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\SitemappableServiceProvider::class
],

You need to publish the migration with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\SitemappableServiceProvider" --tag=migrations

You should publish the config/sitemappable.php config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\SitemappableServiceProvider" --tag=config

This is the content of the published config file:

return [

    /*
     * This is the name of the table that will be created by the migration and
     * used by the Sitemappable model shipped with this package.
     */
    'db_table_name' => 'sitemap',

    /*
     * The generated XML sitemap is cached to speed up performance.
     */
    'cache' => '60 minutes',

    /*
     * The batch import will loop through this directory and search for models
     * that use the IsSitemappable trait.
     */
    'model_directory' => 'app/Models',

    /*
     * If you're extending the controller, you'll need to specify the new location here.
     */
    'controller' => Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\Http\Controllers\SitemappableController::class,

];

Making a model sitemappable

The required steps to make a model sitemappable are:

• Add the Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\IsSitemappable trait.
• Define a public method toSitemappableArray that returns an array with the (localized) URL(s).
• Optionally define the conditions when a model should be sitemappable in a public method shouldBeSitemappable.

Here's an example of a model:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\IsSitemappable;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use IsSitemappable;

    public function toSitemappableArray()
    {
        return [];
    }

    public function shouldBeSitemappable()
    {
        return true;
    }
}

toSitemappableArray

You need to return an array with (localized) URL(s) of your model.

public function toSitemappableArray()
{
    return [
        'nl' => 'https://www.vursion.io/nl/testen/test-slug-in-het-nederlands',
        'en' => 'https://www.vursion.io/en/tests/test-slug-in-english',
    ];
}

This is an example of a model that uses ARCANDEDEV\Localization for localized routes in combination with spatie\laravel-translatable for making Eloquent models translatable.

public function toSitemappableArray()
{
    return collect(localization()->getSupportedLocalesKeys())->mapWithKeys(function ($key) {
        return [$key => localization()->getUrlFromRouteName($key, 'routes.your-route-name', ['slug' => $this->getTranslationWithoutFallback('slug', $key)])];
    });
}

shouldBeSitemappable (conditionally sitemappable model instances)

Sometimes you may need to only make a model sitemappable under certain conditions. For example, imagine you have a App\Models\Posts\Post model. You may only want to allow "non-draft" and "published" posts to be sitemappable. To accomplish this, you may define a shouldBeSitemappable method on your model:

public function shouldBeSitemappable()
{
    return (! $this->draft && $this->published);
}

Rebuild the sitemap from scratch

If you are installing Laravel Sitemappable into an existing project, you may already have database records you need to import into your sitemap. Laravel Sitemappable provides a sitemappable:import Artisan command that you may use to import all of your existing records into your sitemap:

php artisan sitemappable:import

Adding non-model associated routes

It's very likely your project will have routes that are not associated with a model. You can add these URLs by extending the controller and returning them via the otherRoutes method.

To publish the controller to app/Http/Controllers/SitemappableController.php run:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Vursion\LaravelSitemappable\SitemappableServiceProvider" --tag=controllers

Don't forget to change the location of the controller in the config/sitemappable.php config file:

return [

    ...

    /*
     * If you're extending the controller, you'll need to specify the new location here.
     */
    'controller' => App\Http\Controllers\SitemappableController::class,

    ...

];

Just make sure you return an array of arrays with key/value pairs like the example below:

public function otherRoutes()
{
    return [
        [
            'nl' => 'https://www.vursion.io/nl/contacteer-ons',
            'en' => 'https://www.vursion.io/en/contact-us',
        ],
        ...
    ];
}
