nextjs.config.js
Checkout the examples folder for source code.
Open a Terminal in the project root and run:
npm install @sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap
or
yarn add @sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap

For dynamic routes, you have to declare them with the include
property.
Example src

// import { configureSitemap } from '@sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap';

async function fetchDynamicPaths() {
return ['house', 'flower', 'table'];
}
async function getDynamicPaths() {
const paths = await fetchDynamicPaths();
return paths.map((item) => `/project/${item}`);
}
getDynamicPaths().then((paths) => {
const Sitemap = configureSitemap({

excludeIndex: true,

in domains
prop.

If the number of urls is more than 50000, then several sitemaps will be automatically created. You can customize the number of urls using sitemapSize
// import { configureSitemap } from '@sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap';
const { configureSitemap } = require('@sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap');
const Sitemap = configureSitemap({
sitemapUrl: 'https://www.example.com',
sitemapSize: 5000,
pagesConfig: {
'/p/*': {
priority: '0.5',
changefreq: 'daily',
},
},
nextConfigPath: __dirname + '/next.config.js',
targetDirectory: __dirname + '/public',
pagesDirectory: __dirname + '/src/pages',
});

The value of the hreflang attribute identifies the language (in ISO 639-1 format) and optionally a region (in ISO 3166-1 Alpha 2 format) of an alternate URL.
You can gzip your sitemap.xml. The .gz extension just means that it's been compressed (using gzip compression), so that it's smaller and served faster. Most search engine bots can read gzip'd compressed content.
// import zlib from 'zlib';
// import fs from 'fs';
// import { configureSitemap } from '@sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap';
const zlib = require('zlib');
const fs = require('fs');
const { configureSitemap } = require('@sergeymyssak/nextjs-sitemap');
