generate-sitemap 1.9.1 Released
TL;DR
I just released generate-sitemap 1.9.1, a GitHub Action for generating XML sitemaps for static websites. The generate-sitemap GitHub Action is implemented in Python, and generates an XML sitemap by crawling the GitHub repository containing the html of the site, using commit dates to generate <lastmod> tags in the sitemap.
Changelog 1.9.1 - 2023-01-16
Fixed
- Case-insensitive check for
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">in head of html files. - Correct handling of
<meta content="noindex" name="robots">(i.e., content before name).
Dependencies
- Bump cicirello/pyaction from 4.12.0 to 4.14.1

The generate-sitemap GitHub action generates a sitemap for a website hosted on GitHubPages, and has the following features:
- Support for both xml and txt sitemaps (you choose using one of the action's inputs).
- When generating an xml sitemap, it uses the last commit date ofeach file to generate the
<lastmod>tag in the sitemap entry. If the filewas created during that workflow run, but not yet committed, then it instead usesthe current date (however, we recommend if possible committing newly created files first). - Supports URLs for html and pdf files in the sitemap, and has inputsto control the included file types (defaults include both html and pdf files in the sitemap).
- Now also supports including URLs for a user specified list ofadditional file extensions in the sitemap.
