# slugify
|
|
|
|
[![npm-version]][npm] [![travis-ci]][travis] [![coveralls-status]][coveralls]
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var slugify = require('slugify')
|
|
|
|
slugify('some string') // some-string
|
|
|
|
// if you prefer something other than '-' as separator
|
|
slugify('some string', '_') // some_string
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Vanilla ES5 JavaScript
|
|
- No dependencies
|
|
- Coerces foreign symbols to their english equivalent (check out the `charMap` in [index.js][index] for more details)
|
|
- Works in the browser (window.slugify) and AMD/CommonJS-flavored module loaders
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
slugify('some string', {
|
|
replacement: '-', // replace spaces with replacement
|
|
remove: null, // regex to remove characters
|
|
lower: true // result in lower case
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example to remove `*+~.()'"!:@` from the result slug, you can use `slugify('..', {remove: /[$*_+~.()'"!\-:@]/g})`
|
|
|
|
## Extend
|
|
|
|
Out of the box `slugify` comes with support for a handfull of Unicode symbols. For example the `☢` (radioactive) symbol is not defined in the `charMap` object in [index.js][index] and therefore it will be stripped by default:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
slugify('unicode ♥ is ☢') // unicode-love-is
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
However you can extend the supported symbols, or override the existing ones with your own:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
slugify.extend({'☢': 'radioactive'})
|
|
slugify('unicode ♥ is ☢') // unicode-love-is-radioactive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that the `extend` method extends/overrides the default `charMap` for the entire process. In case you need a fresh instance of the slugify's `charMap` object you have to clean up the module cache first:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
delete require.cache[require.resolve('slugify')]
|
|
var slugify = require('slugify')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Contribute
|
|
|
|
1. Add chars to `charmap.json`
|
|
2. Run tests `npm test`
|
|
3. The tests will build the charmap in `index.js` and will sort the `charmap.json`
|
|
4. Commit **all** modified files

> This module was originally a vanilla javascript port of [node-slug][node-slug].<br>
|
|
> Note that the original [slug][slug] module has been ported to vanilla javascript too.<br>
|
|
> One major difference between the two modules is that `slugify` does not depend on the external [unicode][unicode] module.
