Calling function in root sitemap flow

[Bardo Nelgen <ma...@bnnperformances.de>]

Hi all,

obviously I’m missing something:

Could anyone please point me towards the proper method of calling a 
function in root sitemap flow (incl. passing parameters) from a 
sub-sitemap’s matcher ?

Is this possible at all ?

Thanks for any hint !!

Best,

Bardo

Hi Bardo,

there is no inheritance in what you're describing.

However, there's a workaround a lot of people are using:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE sitemap [
      <!ENTITY import_global_resources SYSTEM "sitemap-resources.xmap">
]>
<map:sitemap xmlns:map="http://apache.org/cocoon/sitemap/1.0">
      <map:components>
            ...
      </map:components>

      <map:resources>
            &import_global_resources;
      </map:resources>

      <map:pipelines>
...
      </map:pipelines>
</map:sitemap>

---

Where sitemap-resources.xmap is just a plain file with what you'd normally include into your map:resources block. You can do the same with pipelines if you want.

That way you'd have at least a single source for your global sitemap resources. You can do the same in the sub sitemaps.

Please note: When you're changing the "sitemap-resources.xmap" file (name it how you want), then you have to restart cocoon or you have to save the including sitemap again to see your changes. If you have a lot of sub sitemaps, the former would be the better option of course.

Hope that helps!

Daniel
