SitemapCFC Data Driven Sitemap XML Generator

= SitemapCFC =

SitemapCFC is a CFC to model and generate sitemaps.org protocol sitemap.xml documents from flexible data collection types. You can initialize a SitemapCFC object with a collection of URLs in the form of a list, a query or an array of structs. When using a query or array, the column/key names do not matter, as you can specify a simple key mapping as an optional init argument.

== Features Overview ==

* Use a list, query or array (of structs) to initialize a sitemap object.
* Query column or struct key names used to initialize a Sitemap.cfc object are not important; an optional init() argument can be used to map to standard sitemaps.org protocol tag names.
* Write your sitemap.xml file to disk or dynamically send a sitemap XML document to the browser as binary page output (cfcontent type text/xml).
* Debugging methods available to access a Sitemap.cfc object's URL collection in the form of an array, an XML object or the raw XML string.
* XML document is schema validation ready.
* All initialization data values are cleaned (entity escaping, date/time format, valid string values, etc.) and validated.
* Date(/time) values for the {{{<lastmod>}}} tags can be passed in as any valid date/time string or object; they will be automatically converted to UTC in proper W3C Datetime format (again, per sitemaps.org protocol).
