How to generate a sitemap.xml using laravel-sitemap without images url?

I am using spatie to generate sitemap.xml. It is working properly as it is expected. But as per some requirement I would like to not include any image url in sitemap.xml.

This is my code -

public function sitemap(){
        
        $link   =   Website::where('adminId', Auth::user()->id)->value('link');

        $path = public_path('uploads/'.Auth::user()->id.'/sitemap.xml');

        if (file_exists($path)) {
            File::delete($path);
            fopen($path, 'w');
        } else {
            fopen($path, 'w');
        }

        SitemapGenerator::create($link)->writeToFile($path);

        return response()->json('success');
    }

Currently my sitemap.xml something looks like this with image links -

<url>
<loc>http://www.example.com/uploads/3/page/anahera/1591769129-4412.jpeg</loc>
<lastmod>2020-06-23T11:22:59+12:00</lastmod>
<changefreq>daily</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority>
</url>
<url>
<loc>http://www.example.com/uploads/3/page/anahera/1591769136-7646.jpeg</loc>
<lastmod>2020-06-23T11:22:59+12:00</lastmod>
<changefreq>daily</changefreq>
<priority>0.8</priority>
</url>

This there any way to remove those image links from sitemap.xml?

Appreciate for help.

Please follow this part of document - spatie. This is not specifically omit images but if there is any specific format in your url for images link - http://www.example.com/uploads then try to get segment(1) and compare so this part of documentation will work.

In your case as an example -

public function sitemap(){
        
        $link   =   Website::where('adminId', Auth::user()->id)->value('link');

        $path = public_path('uploads/'.Auth::user()->id.'/sitemap.xml');

        if (file_exists($path)) {
            File::delete($path);
            fopen($path, 'w');
        } else {
            fopen($path, 'w');
        }
        SitemapGenerator::create($link)->hasCrawled(function (Url $url) {
            if ($url->segment(1) === 'uploads') {
                return;
            }

            return $url;
        })->writeToFile($path);

        return response()->json('success');
    }

Hope this will work for you.
