Shorten the Sitemap generated url

Hey ​@aravindS The Sling Mappings are the prerequisite — without them working correctly on publish, even the custom generator won't strip the 

/content/<site>

 prefix. Test your mappings first by hitting 

http://localhost:4503/system/console/jcrresolver

 and verifying the map output. Here's the complete solution. You need two things:

1. Sling Mapping Config

Create this in your 

ui.config

 module under 

config.publish

 runmode:

org.apache.sling.jcr.resource.internal.JcrResourceResolverFactoryImpl.cfg.json

{
    "resource.resolver.mapping": [
        "/:/",
        "/content/<your-site>/:/",
    ]
}

Replace 

<your-site>

 with your actual site name. This makes 

resolver.map()

 strip 

/content/<your-site>

 so URLs become 

/us/en/...

.

2. Custom Extensionless SitemapGenerator

Create this Java class in your 

core

 module:

package com.mysite.core.sitemap;

import com.day.cq.wcm.api.Page;
import com.day.cq.wcm.api.PageFilter;
import com.day.cq.wcm.api.PageManager;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.ResourceResolver;
import org.apache.sling.sitemap.SitemapGenerator;
import org.apache.sling.sitemap.builder.Sitemap;
import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Component;

import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Set;

@Component(service = SitemapGenerator.class, property = {
    "service.ranking:Integer=100"
})
public class ExtensionlessSitemapGenerator implements SitemapGenerator {

    @Override
    public Set<String> getNames(Resource resource) {
        return Set.of(DEFAULT_SITEMAP);
    }

    @Override
    public void generate(Resource resource, String name, Sitemap sitemap,
                         Context context) throws Exception {
        ResourceResolver resolver = resource.getResourceResolver();
        Page rootPage = resolver.adaptTo(PageManager.class).getContainingPage(resource);
        if (rootPage == null) return;

        addPage(sitemap, rootPage, resolver);
        Iterator<Page> children = rootPage.listChildren(new PageFilter(), true);
        while (children.hasNext()) {
            addPage(sitemap, children.next(), resolver);
        }
    }

    private void addPage(Sitemap sitemap, Page page, ResourceResolver resolver) throws Exception {
        if (page.isHideInNav()) return;

        String loc = resolver.map(page.getPath() + ".html");
        if (loc.endsWith(".html")) {
            loc = loc.substring(0, loc.length() - 5);
        }

        var url = sitemap.addUrl(loc);
        if (page.getLastModified() != null) {
            url.setLastModified(page.getLastModified().toInstant());
        }
    }
}

3. Enable Sitemap on your site root

On your site root page (e.g. 

/content/mysite/us/en

), ensure these properties are set:

•  

  sling:sitemapRoot

   = 

  true

Result

Before:

<loc>https://www.mysite.com/content/mysite/us/en/page.html</loc>

After:

<loc>/us/en/page</loc>

Note: If you want fully qualified URLs (e.g. 

https://www.mysite.com/us/en/page

), configure the Externalizer via 

com.day.cq.commons.impl.ExternalizerImpl.cfg.json

 or include the domain in your Sling Mapping like 

"resource.resolver.mapping": ["/content/mysite/:/", "https://www.mysite.com/:/"]

.
