Package Exports

slug

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (slug) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

slug

slugifies every string, even when it contains unicode!

Make strings url-safe.

respecting RFC 3986
Comprehensive tests
No dependencies (except the unicode table)
Not in coffee-script
Coerces foreign symbols to their english equivalent
Works in browser (window.slug) and AMD/CommonJS-flavoured module loaders (except the unicode symbols unless you use browserify but who wants to download a ~2mb js file, right?)

npm install slug

example

var slug = require('slug')
var print = console.log.bind(console, '>')

print(slug('i ♥ unicode'))
// > i-love-unicode

print(slug('unicode ♥ is ☢')) // yes!
// > unicode-love-is-radioactive

print(slug('i ♥ unicode', '_')) // If you prefer something else than `-` as separator
// > i_love_unicode

slug.charmap['♥'] = 'freaking love' // change default charmap or use option {charmap:{…}} as 2. argument
print(slug('I ♥ UNICODE'))
// > I-freaking-love-UNICODE

print(slug('☏-Number', {lower: true})) // If you prefer lower case
// > telephone-number

print(slug('i <3 unicode'))
// > i-love-unicode

options

// options is either object or replacement (sets options.replacement)
slug('string', [{options} || 'replacement']);

slug.defaults.mode ='pretty';
slug.defaults.modes['rfc3986'] = {
    replacement: '-',      // replace spaces with replacement
    symbols: true,         // replace unicode symbols or not
    remove: null,          // (optional) regex to remove characters
    lower: true,           // result in lower case
    charmap: slug.charmap, // replace special characters
    multicharmap: slug.multicharmap // replace multi-characters
};
slug.defaults.modes['pretty'] = {
    replacement: '-',
    symbols: true,
    remove: /[.]/g,
    lower: false,
    charmap: slug.charmap,
    multicharmap: slug.multicharmap
};

browser

When using browserify you might want to remove the symbols table from your bundle by using --ignore similar to this:

# generates a standalone slug browser bundle:
browserify slug.js --ignore unicode/category/So -s slug > slug-browser.js
