how to generate a Google sitemap for Maven site?

Question

Is it possible to generate Google Sitemap by maven-site-plugin?

Answer 1

If you still need you can try my sitemapxml plugin.

To test please run:

mvn site com.github.s4u.plugins:sitemapxml-maven-plugin:gen

After run you will have sitemap.xml in your site directory.

Next you can add this plugin to your project:

<project>
...
    <build>
    ...
       <plugins>
           <plugin>
               <groupId>com.github.s4u.plugins</groupId>
               <artifactId>sitemapxml-maven-plugin</artifactId>
               <version>1.0.0</version>
               <executions>
                   <execution>
                       <goals>
                           <goal>gen</goal>
                       </goals>
                   </execution>
               </executions>
           </plugin>
       </plugins>
    ...
    </build>
...
</project>

And plugin will run with standard command:

mvn site
