description: API Reference for robots.txt file.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Add or generate a `robots.txt` file that matches the [Robots Exclusion Standard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robots.txt#Standard) in the **root** of `app` directory to tell search engine crawlers which URLs they can access on your site.
|
|
|
|
## Static `robots.txt`
|
|
|
|
```txt filename="app/robots.txt"
|
|
User-Agent: *
|
|
Allow: /
|
|
Disallow: /private/
|
|
|
|
Sitemap: https://acme.com/sitemap.xml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Generate a Robots file
|
|
|
|
Add a `robots.js` or `robots.ts` file that returns a [`Robots` object](#robots-object).
|
|
|
|
```ts filename="app/robots.ts" switcher
|
|
import { MetadataRoute } from 'next'
|
|
|
|
export default function robots(): MetadataRoute.Robots {
|
|
return {
|
|
rules: {
|
|
userAgent: '*',
|
|
allow: '/',
|
|
disallow: '/private/',
|
|
},
|
|
sitemap: 'https://acme.com/sitemap.xml',
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js filename="app/robots.js" switcher
|
|
export default function robots() {
|
|
return {
|
|
rules: {
|
|
userAgent: '*',
|
|
allow: '/',
|
|
disallow: '/private/',
|
|
},
|
|
sitemap: 'https://acme.com/sitemap.xml',
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
User-Agent: *
|
|
Allow: /
|
|
Disallow: /private/
|
|
|
|
Sitemap: https://acme.com/sitemap.xml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Customizing specific user agents
|
|
|
|
You can customise how individual search engine bots crawl your site by passing an array of user agents to the `rules` property. For example:
|
|
|
|
```ts filename="app/robots.ts" switcher
|
|
import type { MetadataRoute } from 'next'
|
|
|
|
export default function robots(): MetadataRoute.Robots {
|
|
return {
|
|
rules: [
|
|
{
|
|
userAgent: 'Googlebot',
|
|
allow: ['/'],
|
|
disallow: '/private/',
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
userAgent: ['Applebot', 'Bingbot'],
|
|
disallow: ['/'],
|
|
},
|
|
],
|
|
sitemap: 'https://acme.com/sitemap.xml',
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js filename="app/robots.js" switcher
|
|
export default function robots() {
|
|
return {
|
|
rules: [
|
|
{
|
|
userAgent: 'Googlebot',
|
|
allow: ['/'],
|
|
disallow: ['/private/'],
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
userAgent: ['Applebot', 'Bingbot'],
|
|
disallow: ['/'],
|
|
},
|
|
],
|
|
sitemap: 'https://acme.com/sitemap.xml',
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
User-Agent: Googlebot
|
|
Allow: /
|
|
Disallow: /private/
|
|
|
|
User-Agent: Applebot
|
|
Disallow: /
|
|
|
|
User-Agent: Bingbot
|
|
Disallow: /
|
|
|
|
Sitemap: https://acme.com/sitemap.xml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Robots object
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
type Robots = {
|
|
rules:
|
|
| {
|
|
userAgent?: string | string[]
|
|
allow?: string | string[]
|
|
disallow?: string | string[]
|
|
crawlDelay?: number
|
|
}
|
|
| Array<{
|
|
userAgent: string | string[]
|
|
allow?: string | string[]
|
|
disallow?: string | string[]
|
|
crawlDelay?: number
|
|
}>
|
|
sitemap?: string | string[]
|
|
host?: string
|
|
}
|
|
```
