I realy like the way the Google (XML) Sitemaps Generator for WordPress handles the generation of my sitemaps and informs Google about the changes on my blog.
I was missing this in the Rails world for a long time, so I decided to build my own Rails plugin.
Here it is: “XML Sitemap Generator for Rails”
It’s just a quick implementation of all the functionality you need to let your Rails App generate a XML Sitemap and ping Google about the updates.
It’s not made to be scale more to give your small site the abillitiy to have a sitemap.
I’ll work on it in the future to make it easy to add some custom URL’s and maybe to have a version to scale…
Check it out on: GitHub
If you have any suggestions fork the project and send me a pull request.
