I tried to use ping_google in my Django site with the following command
after adding django.contrib.sitemaps to settings.INSTALLED_APPS.
{{{
python manage.py ping_google
}}}
Then, I got an error like:
{{{
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: ping_google requires
django.contrib.sites, which isn't installed.
}}}
Seeing the related code, it seems that the command requires
django.contrib.sites to be installed to work.
{{{
def _get_sitemap_full_url(sitemap_url):
if not django_apps.is_installed('django.contrib.sites'):
raise ImproperlyConfigured("ping_google requires
django.contrib.sites, which isn't installed.")
}}}
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/_modules/django/contrib/sitemaps/
I believe it's better to add some notes for this in the documentation.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/sitemaps/#pinging-google
(This is my first challenge to file an issue here. I'm sorry if I'm
missing or misunderstanding anything crucial.)
