For starters, this is my current implementation:

---
permalink: /sitemap.xml
excludeFromSitemap: true
---
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<urlset xmlns='http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9'>
  {%- for item in collections.all %}
    {%- if not item.data.excludeFromSitemap %}
    <url>
      <loc>https://jaenis.ch{{ item.url }}</loc>
      <lastmod>{{ item.date | isoDate }}</lastmod>
      <changefreq>{{ item.data.changefreq }}</changefreq>
      <priority>{{ item.data.priority }}</priority>
    </url>
    {%- endif %}
  {%- endfor %}
</urlset>

And here's mine. Note I've got a filter that removes items without permalinks (which I'm using until there's first class support for drafts).

---
permalink: /sitemap.xml
sitemapIgnore: true
---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
{%- for item in collections.all | permalinkNotFalse | sort(false, false, 'url') %}
{%- if item.data.sitemapIgnore !== true %}
  <url>
    <loc>https://www.edwardhorsford.com{{ item.url }}</loc>
    <lastmod>{{ item.date | formatDate("dashDate") }}</lastmod>
    <changefreq>{{ item.data.changeFrequency or globals.sitemap.defaultChangeFrequency }}</changefreq>
    <priority>{{ item.data.sitemapPriority or globals.sitemap.defaultPriority }}</priority>
  </url>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</urlset>

Okay, so how could a plugin look like?
I'd say, a shortcode, which accepts the „globals” Data file content as argument?
It would depend on some data attributes for ignoring then. Plus, I can see a dependency to a date function (I'm about to rewrite my filter to use date-fns).

Am I missing something?

[brycewray]

Any thoughts on something that would (also?) work with .11ty.js templating and/or universal filters? Since eleventy-rss-helper seems to be how one would do an RSS feed using .11ty.js, sitemaps may be the last frontier for going all-.11ty.js. 😄

I have a basic implementation of a sitemap file using .11ty.js syntax.

Find it at my WIP boilerplate: Eleventy-Core: Sitemap Implementation

It relies on computed data quite a bit, and it's not fully fleshed out, but it's a start.
