    plugins: ['grunt-assemble-sitemap', 'other/plugins/*']
  }
}

Visit the plugins docs for more info or for help getting started.

Options

See sitemaps.org for detail XML tag definitions.

dest

Type: String

Default: undefined

Sitemap destination. If not set, fallback to assemble destination.

homepage

Type: String

Default: homepage (from package.json)

Site URL

changefreq

Type: String

Default: weekly

How frequently the page is likely to change. This value provides general information to search engines and may not correlate exactly to how often they crawl the page. Valid values are:

• always
• hourly
• daily
• weekly
• monthly
• yearly
• never

priority

Type: Float

Default: 0.5

The priority of this URL relative to other URLs on your site. Valid values range from 0.0 to 1.0. This value does not affect how your pages are compared to pages on other sites—it only lets the search engines know which pages you deem most important for the crawlers.

exclude

Type: Array

Default: ['404']

Pages to omit from the sitemap.

options: {
  sitemap: {
    exclude: ["foo", "bar"],
  },
  files: {
    ...
  }
}

relativedest

Type: String / Boolean

Default: false

Path to which the URLs in Sitemap and Robots should be relative to. true is equal to the destination path dest and false is equal to the root directory.

basename

Type: String Default: sitemap.xml

If you have a master sitemap that references sub-sitemaps, use this feature. For example static-sitemap.xml

robot

Type: Boolean

Default: true

Generate robots.txt from exclusions list.

pretty

Type: Boolean Default: false

When generating a sitemap with directory indexes, use pretty urls by removing index path segments from http://www.example.com/directory/index.html to to create http://www.example.com/directory/

Simple

To simplify might do something like:

assemble: {
  blog: {
    options: {
      plugins: ['grunt-assemble-sitemap'],
    },
    files: {
      './blog/': ['./templates/blog/*.hbs']
    }
  }
}
 

Result

./blog/sitemap.xml
./blog/robots.txt

Advanced

assemble: {
  blog: {
    options: {
      plugins: ['grunt-assemble-sitemap'],
      sitemap: {
        homepage: 'http://assemble.io',
            changefreq: 'daily',
            priority: '0.8',
            exclude: ['50x', 'foo'],
            robot: false
      }
    },
    files: {
      './blog/': ['./templates/blog/*.hbs']
    }
  }
}

Result

./blog/sitemap.xml
