Generate sitemap when server boots about strapi-plugin-sitemap

[TriPSs]

Yes that seems to work 🎉

My file now:

export default {
  /**
   * An asynchronous register function that runs before
   * your application is initialized.
   *
   * This gives you an opportunity to extend code.
   */
  register(/*{ strapi }*/) {},

  /**
   * An asynchronous bootstrap function that runs before
   * your application gets started.
   *
   * This gives you an opportunity to set up your data model,
   * run jobs, or perform some special logic.
   */
  async bootstrap({ strapi }) {
    await strapi.plugin('sitemap').service('core').createSitemap();
  },
};

Hmmm, interesting feature request.
You could actually do this yourself aswell.

Just put this code in your bootstrap function:

strapi.plugin('sitemap').service('core').createSitemap();

Aah, I did not know that, created an API now that generates it if the file does not exist.

Is there any docs available about adding to bootstrap? I searched for it but could not find anything, that's why I created the API.

EDIT: OK apparently there is no real documentation about this, but you can see here that the bootstrap function can be called from the src/admin/app.js file: https://docs.strapi.io/developer-docs/latest/development/admin-customization.html#locales

Thanks! Then this ticket can be closed as this would do exactly what I need.

Great :)
Do let me know if it works out for you.
If not I might add this as a feature

Currently have this:

export default {
  config: {
    locales: []
  },
  async bootstrap({ strapi }) {
    await strapi.plugin('sitemap').service('core').createSitemap()
  }
}

But it does not work, I think this is because it's ran on the client side when going to the admin panel.

You are right. Pardon me. My bad. There is documentation about the server bootstrap phase.
Right here: https://docs.strapi.io/developer-docs/latest/setup-deployment-guides/configurations/optional/functions.html#bootstrap
