Define "lastmod" on "queueURL"
rtyx opened this issue · comments
Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
I would like to know if it's possible (or if it can be implemented) to specify the lastmod property on queueURL.
What is the current behavior?
Currently queueURL only adds the URL without specifying a lastmod date different from the global one.
What is the expected behavior?
Ideally, when queuing a URL you could pass the datemod as a parameter, such as:
generator.queueURL(url, datemod);
Not sure if queueURL is the right place to specify lastmod. It's just a hint to what the crawler should look for and the sitemap is generated afterwards.
Maybe we could add some kind of map to map lastmod dates to URLs.
Keep in mind that not all sites support/provide lastmod data.
I'm fully aware of this. Anyway there is no easy way to provide data like this for a crawler.
Generally I'm open for a good solution to provide lastmod data, but your proposed one doesn't seem like a good fit. If you have a better idea please reopen or create a new issue.
