Integration Points
Middleware
The package provides middleware for redirect handling:
// In bootstrap/app.php
->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
$middleware->web(append: [
\ArtisanPackUI\Seo\Http\Middleware\HandleRedirects::class,
]);
})
Routes
The package can register routes for:
/sitemap.xml- Main sitemap or sitemap index/sitemap-{page}.xml- Paginated main sitemap (e.g./sitemap-1.xml)/sitemap-{type}-{page}.xml- Type-specific sitemaps (e.g./sitemap-post-1.xml)/robots.txt- Dynamic robots.txt
// In config/seo.php
'routes' => [
'sitemap' => true,
'robots' => true,
],
Scheduled Tasks
Add sitemap generation to your scheduler:
// In routes/console.php or app/Console/Kernel.php
Schedule::command('seo:generate-sitemap')->daily();
Schedule::command('seo:submit-sitemap')->weekly();
