Description
To support features we're adding to MetacatUI, we need to take another look at the Sitemap implementation in Metacat. In particular, we want to support Member Nodes running Metacat w/ MetacatUI, and also the DataONE Coordinating Nodes running Metacat w/ MetacatUI as well. Together with the features we're adding to MetacatUI:
- Injecting Schema.org/P418 JSON-LD in MetacatUI views
- Refactoring the MetacatUI router to not user fragment URLs
Updating the Sitemap implementation will allow Metacat users running MetacatUI to be indexed by Google which would be awesome.
My plan is to:
- Evaluate the current state of the Sitemap implementation
- Make any updates needed to most effectively achieve the goal of getting Metacat instances indexable by Google
- Test this implementation at appropriate scales to ensure it'll work both for Member Nodes and Coordinating Nodes
We have an old ticket, #563, that I think I'll close as this ticket obviates that one.
