Route registration:, _(*7)

# config/routes.yaml
sitemap:
    path: /sitemap.xml
    controller: App\Controller\SitemapController::sitemap

Generic PHP Example

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Rumenx\Sitemap\Sitemap;

$sitemap = new Sitemap();
$sitemap->add('https://example.com/', date('c'), '1.0', 'daily');
$sitemap->add('https://example.com/products', date('c'), '0.9', 'weekly', [
    ['url' => 'https://example.com/img/product.jpg', 'title' => 'Product Image']
]);

// Output XML
header('Content-Type: application/xml');
echo $sitemap->renderXml();

Advanced Features

// Add with all supported fields
$sitemap->add(
    'https://example.com/news',
    date('c'),
    '0.8',
    'daily',
    images: [['url' => 'https://example.com/img/news.jpg', 'title' => 'News Image']],
    title: 'News Article',
    translations: [['language' => 'fr', 'url' => 'https://example.com/fr/news']],
    videos: [['title' => 'News Video', 'description' => 'Video description']],
    googlenews: [
        'sitename' => 'Example News',
        'language' => 'en',
        'publication_date' => date('c'),
    ],
    alternates: [['media' => 'print', 'url' => 'https://example.com/news-print']]
);

// Generate XML using renderXml() method
$xml = $sitemap->renderXml();
file_put_contents('sitemap.xml', $xml);

// Or use view templates for more control (create your own views based on src/views/)
$items = $sitemap->getModel()->getItems();
// Pass $items to your view template

add() vs addItem()

You can add sitemap entries using either the add() or addItem() methods:, _(*8)

add() — Simple, type-safe, one-at-a-time:, _(*9)

// Recommended for most use cases
$sitemap->add(
    'https://example.com/',
    date('c'),
    '1.0',
    'daily',
    images: [['url' => 'https://example.com/img.jpg', 'title' => 'Image']],
    title: 'Homepage'
);

addItem() — Advanced, array-based, supports batch:, _(*10)

// Add a single item with an array (all fields as keys)
$sitemap->addItem([
    'loc' => 'https://example.com/about',
    'lastmod' => date('c'),
    'priority' => '0.8',
    'freq' => 'monthly',
    'title' => 'About Us',
    'images' => [['url' => 'https://example.com/img/about.jpg', 'title' => 'About Us']],
]);

// Add multiple items at once (batch add)
$sitemap->addItem([
    [
        'loc' => 'https://example.com/page1',
        'title' => 'Page 1',
    ],
    [
        'loc' => 'https://example.com/page2',
        'title' => 'Page 2',
    ],
]);

• Use add() for simple, explicit, one-at-a-time additions (recommended for most users).
• Use addItem() for advanced, batch, or programmatic additions with arrays (e.g., when looping over database results).

Rendering Options

The package provides multiple ways to generate sitemap output:, _(*11)

1. Built-in XML Renderer (Simple)

$sitemap = new Sitemap();
$sitemap->add('https://example.com/', date('c'), '1.0', 'daily');
$xml = $sitemap->renderXml(); // Returns XML string

2. View Templates (Flexible)

For more control, use the included view templates or create your own:, _(*12)

$sitemap = new Sitemap();
$sitemap->add('https://example.com/', date('c'), '1.0', 'daily');

// Get the data for your view
$items = $sitemap->getModel()->getItems();

// Laravel: Use response()->view() or view()->render()
return response()->view('sitemap.xml', compact('items'), 200, ['Content-Type' => 'application/xml']);

// Symfony: Use Twig templates
return $this->render('sitemap.xml.twig', ['items' => $items], new Response('', 200, ['Content-Type' => 'application/xml']));

// Generic PHP: Include view templates
ob_start();
include 'vendor/rumenx/php-sitemap/src/views/xml.php';
$xml = ob_get_clean();

• xml-mobile.php - Mobile-specific sitemap
• google-news.php - Google News sitemap
