Zola will look for a sitemap.xml file in the templates directory or use the built-in one.

The sitemap template gets four variables in addition of the config:

• pages: all pages of the site
• sections: all sections of the site, including an index section
• tags: links the tags page and individual tag page, empty if no tags
• categories: links the categories page and individual category page, empty if no categories

As the sitemap only requires a link and an optional date for the lastmod field, all the variables above are arrays of SitemapEntry with the following type:

permalink: String;
date: String?;

All SitemapEntry are sorted in each variable by their permalink.
