Take a look at this sitemap fragment (used to generate our own docs):
<map:match pattern="*.html">
<map:aggregate element="site">
<map:part src="cocoon:/book-{1}.xml"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/body-{1}.xml"/>
</map:aggregate>
<map:transform src="stylesheets/site2xhtml.xsl">
<map:parameter name="use-request-parameters" value="true"/>
<map:parameter name="header" value="graphics/{1}-header.jpg"/>
</map:transform>
<map:serialize/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="**/*.html">
<map:aggregate element="site">
<map:part src="cocoon:/{1}/book-{1}/{2}.xml"/>
<map:part src="cocoon:/body-{1}/{2}.xml"/>
</map:aggregate>
<map:transform src="stylesheets/site2xhtml.xsl">
<map:parameter name="use-request-parameters" value="true"/>
<map:parameter name="header"
value="{1}/graphics/{2}-header.jpg"/>
</map:transform>
<map:serialize/>
</map:match>
they look so much equal it really bugs me there is no simple way to
collapse them into one.
What do you think? I know I'm being overly picky but we should make an
effort to create the most clean sitemaps so that people learn from us.
Also,
<map:match pattern="**images/*.png">
<map:read src="images/{2}.png" mime-type="image/png"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="**images/*.jpg">
<map:read src="images/{2}.jpg" mime-type="image/jpeg"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="**images/*.gif">
<map:read src="images/{2}.gif" mime-type="image/gif"/>
</map:match>
could be condensed into
<map:match pattern="**images/*.*">
<map:read src="images/{2}.gif" mime-type="image/{3}"/>
</map:match>
assuming that nothing but images are stored there.
Thinking about it, for those like me who can't learn regexp (sorry, but
I don't have that mindset), what do you think about adding something
like
<map:match pattern="**images/*.{gif|jpg|png}">
<map:read src="images/{2}.gif" mime-type="image/{3}"/>
</map:match>
which prevents curly braces from being used in URI, but it could be
useful for many to reduce sitemap verbosity by far in many situations.
