@astrojs/sitemap 🗺

This Astro integration generates a sitemap for your Astro project.

Sitemaps outline all of the pages, videos, and files on your site. Search engines like Google read this file to crawl your site more efficiently. See Google's own advice on sitemaps to learn more.

Installation

There are two ways to add integrations to your project. Let's try the most convenient option first!

(experimental) astro add command

Astro includes a CLI tool for adding first party integrations: astro add. This command will:

1. (Optionally) Install all necessary dependencies and peer dependencies
2. (Also optionally) Update your astro.config.* file to apply this integration

To install @astrojs/sitemap, run the following from your project directory and follow the prompts:

# Using NPM
npx astro add sitemap
# Using Yarn
yarn astro add sitemap
# Using PNPM
pnpx astro add sitemap

If you run into any hiccups, feel free to log an issue on our GitHub and try the manual installation steps below.

Install dependencies manually

First, install the @astrojs/sitemap integration like so:

npm install @astrojs/sitemap

Then, apply this integration to your astro.config.* file using the integrations property:

astro.config.mjs

import sitemap from '@astrojs/sitemap';

export default {
  // ...
  integrations: [sitemap()],
}

Getting started

@astrojs/sitemap requires a deployment / site URL for generation. Add your site's URL under your astro.config.* using the buildOptions.site property:

astro.config.mjs

import sitemap from '@astrojs/sitemap';

export default {
  // ...
  buildOptions: {
    site: 'https://stargazers.club',
  },
  integrations: [sitemap()],
}

Now, build your site for production via the astro build command. You should find your sitemap under dist/sitemap.xml!
