I am using the sitemap_generator gem and have the following configuration at config/sitemap.rb:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sitemap_generator'
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.default_host = 'http://www.localhost.com'
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.create do
add '/', :changefreq => 'daily', :priority => 0.9
add '/contact', :changefreq => 'weekly'
User.find_each do |user|
add users_path(user), lastmod: user.updated_at
end
end
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.ping_search_engines
The app is hosted on heroku. When I do a heroku run rake sitemap:refresh
I get the following results
In '/app/public/':
+ sitemap.xml.gz 76 links / 1.53 KB
Sitemap stats: 76 links / 1 sitemaps / 0m00s
Pinging with URL 'http://www.localhost.com/sitemap.xml.gz':
Successful ping of Google
Successful ping of Bing
Pinging with URL 'http://www.localhost.com/sitemap.xml.gz':
Successful ping of Google
Successful ping of Bing
Now I try to find the sitemap.xml.gz file and its nowhere on heroku. I do a heroku run rake ls
, heroku run rake ls tmp
and heroku run rake ls public
and is nowhere to be found.
In the past I had these two lines on sitemap.rb as well:
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.public_path = 'tmp/'
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.sitemaps_path = 'sitemaps/'
but still the sitemaps were not generated on this folders. Any clue what I am doing wrong and is not generated?
I found the solution here.
I had to use the fog-aws gem and configure the sitemap.rb file:
# Set the host name for URL creation
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.default_host = "http://example.com"
# pick a place safe to write the files
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.public_path = 'tmp/'
# store on S3 using Fog (pass in configuration values as shown above if needed)
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.adapter = SitemapGenerator::S3Adapter.new
# inform the map cross-linking where to find the other maps
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.sitemaps_host = "http://#{ENV['FOG_DIRECTORY']}.s3.amazonaws.com/"
# pick a namespace within your bucket to organize your maps
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.sitemaps_path = 'sitemaps/'
Don't forget to setup the adapter environment variables:
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.adapter = SitemapGenerator::S3Adapter.new(fog_provider: 'AWS',
aws_access_key_id: <your-access-key-id>,
aws_secret_access_key: <your-access-key>,
fog_directory: <your-bucket>,
fog_region: <your-aws-region e.g. us-west-2>)
