Description

The Yahoo! Search Engine/Crawler ​supports some different types of sitemaps. Because of that, I use to always have two types of sitemaps available in my sites: sitemap.xml and urllist.txt. While the first one (sitemap.xml) is supported by Django, the last one (urllist.txt) isn't, so I'm adding a patch that adds support to it in the django.contrib.sitemaps application.

My patch takes advantages of the current Sitemap framework and uses the same configuration of django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap to create the urllist.txt file. Once you have your sitemap.xml configured:

    (r'^sitemap.xml$', 'django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap', {'sitemaps': sitemaps}),

you can add support to urllist.txt by just adding the following rule:

    (r'^sitemap.xml$', 'django.contrib.sitemaps.views.sitemap', {'sitemaps': sitemaps}),
    (r'^urllist.txt$', 'django.contrib.sitemaps.views.urllist', {'sitemaps': sitemaps}),

This patch is currently running on my blog: ​sitemap.xml and ​urllist.txt.

Fixed #12347 -- Added a mimetype option to sitemaps views to further customize the output of the view, e.g. to support Yahoo's plain text urllist format. Thanks, afurlan.
