Automated Google Sitemap in cake tutorial


After reading this tutorial
http://mentalramblings.info/posts/view/automatic-sitemap-generation-with-CakePHP-1.2
for adding an automated google sitemap to an cake site , i have created these files and
the sitemap.xml for blog posts is now autogenerated

Here is the sitemaps controller app/controllers/sitemaps_controller.php

*  < xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
*      <>
*          <>http://www.example.com/
*          <>2005-01-01 00:00:00
*          <>monthly
*          <>0.8
*     
* 
*
* The Sitemap must:
* Begin with an opening  tag and end with a closing  tag.
* Include a  entry for each URL as a parent XML tag.
* Include a  child entry for each  parent tag.
*
*/
class SitemapsController extends AppController
{
 
   var $components = array('RequestHandler');
   var $helpers = array('Time', 'Xml');
   var $name = 'Sitemaps';
   var $uses = array('Post');
 
   function sitemap ()
   {
       Configure::write ('debug', 0);
       $posts = $this->Post->find('all', array('fields' => array('id', 'modified')), null, -1);
       $this->set(compact('posts'));
       $this->RequestHandler->respondAs('xml');
       $this->viewPath .= '/xml';
       $this->layoutPath = 'xml';
   }
}
?>

here is the content for app/views/sitemaps/xml/sitemap.ctp

  
   
           http://example.com/cake/posts/view/
           toAtom($post['Post']['modified']); ?>
           weekly
           0.8
       
  

and finally add the router
in app/config/routes.php
Router::connect('/sitemap.xml', array('controller' => 'sitemaps', 'action' => 'sitemap'));

and load the site http://example.com/sitemap.xml in the browser
