Sitemapper
Sitemapper is an Elixir library for generating XML Sitemaps.
It's designed to generate large sitemaps while maintaining a low memory profile. It can persist sitemaps to Amazon S3, disk or any other adapter you wish to write.
Installation
def deps do
[
{:sitemapper, "~> 0.6"}
]
endUsage
def generate_sitemap() do
config = [
store: Sitemapper.S3Store,
store_config: [bucket: "example-bucket"],
sitemap_url: "http://example-bucket.s3-aws-region.amazonaws.com"
]
Stream.concat([1..100_001])
|> Stream.map(fn i ->
%Sitemapper.URL{
loc: "http://example.com/page-#{i}",
changefreq: :daily,
lastmod: Date.utc_today()
}
end)
|> Sitemapper.generate(config)
|> Sitemapper.persist(config)
|> Sitemapper.ping(config)
|> Stream.run()
endSitemapper.generate receives a Stream of URLs. This makes it easy to stream the contents of an Ecto Repo into a sitemap.
def generate_sitemap() do
config = [
store: Sitemapper.S3Store,
store_config: [bucket: "example-bucket"],
sitemap_url: "http://example-bucket.s3-aws-region.amazonaws.com"
]
Repo.transaction(fn ->
User
|> Repo.stream()
|> Stream.map(fn %User{username: username, updated_at: updated_at} ->
%Sitemapper.URL{
loc: "http://example.com/users/#{username}",
changefreq: :hourly,
lastmod: updated_at
}
end)
|> Sitemapper.generate(config)
|> Sitemapper.persist(config)
|> Sitemapper.ping(config)
|> Stream.run()
end)
endTo persist your sitemaps to the local file system, instead of Amazon S3, your config should look like:
[
store: Sitemapper.FileStore,
store_config: [
path: sitemap_folder_path
]
]Note that Sitemapper.ping/1 is not eager and you'll need to finish on Stream.run/1 or Enum.to_list/1 to execute the stream and return the result.
Todo
- Support extended Sitemap properties, like images, video, etc.
Benchmarks
sitemapper is about 50% faster than fast_sitemap. In the large scenario below (1,000,000 URLs) sitemapper uses ~50MB peak memory consumption, while fast_sitemap uses ~1000MB.
