How to use

from slugify import slugify

txt = "This is a test ---"
r = slugify(txt)
self.assertEqual(r, "this-is-a-test")

txt = '影師嗎'
r = slugify(txt)
self.assertEqual(r, "ying-shi-ma")

txt = 'C\'est déjà l\'été.'
r = slugify(txt)
self.assertEqual(r, "c-est-deja-l-ete")

txt = 'Nín hǎo. Wǒ shì zhōng guó rén'
r = slugify(txt)
self.assertEqual(r, "nin-hao-wo-shi-zhong-guo-ren")

txt = 'Компьютер'
r = slugify(txt)
self.assertEqual(r, "kompiuter")

txt = 'jaja---lol-méméméoo--a'
r = slugify(txt, max_length=9)
self.assertEqual(r, "jaja-lol")

txt = 'jaja---lol-méméméoo--a'
r = slugify(txt, max_length=15, word_boundary=True)
self.assertEqual(r, "jaja-lol-a")

txt = 'jaja---lol-méméméoo--a'
r = slugify(txt, max_length=20, word_boundary=True, separator=".")
self.assertEqual(r, "jaja.lol.mememeoo.a")

txt = 'one two three four five'
r = slugify(txt, max_length=13, word_boundary=True, save_order=True)
self.assertEqual(r, "one-two-three")

txt = 'the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'
r = slugify(txt, stopwords=['the'])
self.assertEqual(r, 'quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-lazy-dog')

txt = 'the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog in a hurry'
r = slugify(txt, stopwords=['the', 'in', 'a', 'hurry'])
self.assertEqual(r, 'quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-lazy-dog')

txt = 'thIs Has a stopword Stopword'
r = slugify(txt, stopwords=['Stopword'], lowercase=False)
self.assertEqual(r, 'thIs-Has-a-stopword')

txt = "___This is a test___"
regex_pattern = r'[^-a-z0-9_]+'
r = slugify(txt, regex_pattern=regex_pattern)
self.assertEqual(r, "___this-is-a-test___")

txt = "___This is a test___"
regex_pattern = r'[^-a-z0-9_]+'
r = slugify(txt, separator='_', regex_pattern=regex_pattern)
self.assertNotEqual(r, "_this_is_a_test_")

txt = '10 | 20 %'
r = slugify(txt, replacements=[['|', 'or'], ['%', 'percent']])
self.assertEqual(r, "10-or-20-percent")

txt = 'ÜBER Über German Umlaut'
r = slugify(txt, replacements=[['Ü', 'UE'], ['ü', 'ue']])
self.assertEqual(r, "ueber-ueber-german-umlaut")

For more examples, have a look at the test.py file.

Command Line Options

With the package, a command line tool called slugify is also installed.

It allows convenient command line access to all the features the slugify function supports. Call it with -h for help.

The command can take its input directly on the command line or from STDIN (when the --stdin flag is passed):

$ echo "Taking input from STDIN" | slugify --stdin
taking-input-from-stdin
$ slugify taking input from the command line
taking-input-from-the-command-line

Please note that when a multi-valued option such as --stopwords or --replacements is passed, you need to use -- as separator before you start with the input:

$ slugify --stopwords the in a hurry -- the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog in a hurry
quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-lazy-dog

Running the tests

To run the tests against all environments:

tox

To run the tests against the current environment:
