Slugifier

Simple, extensible library that converts a string to a slug., _(*1)

Another one?

Yep, sorry. We think this one is pretty good though. Check out the features to see if it's good for you, too., _(*2)

Features

Lightweight: no dependencies, other than the mbstring and iconv extensions, which are almost always present.
Easy to use: (new Slugifier())->slugify('Look Ma, no hands!'); // look-ma-no-hands
Handles special characters, all kinds of quotes, transliteration, HTML entities, and more. All out of the box.
Extensible: add your custom translations
PSR-4 compatible and written using PRS-2 coding guidelines
Well-tested

Usage

$slugifier = new Slugifier();
$slugifier->slugify('Look má, I\'m a „slug”'); // look-ma-im-a-slug

Use a different delimiter:, _(*3)

$slugifier = new Slugifier();
$slugifier->slugify('Foo, bar & baz', '_'); // foo_bar_baz

Add special translations:, _(*4)

```php $slugifier = new Slugifier(); $slugifier->addTranslator(new EnglishTranslator()); $slugifier->slugify('Cow & chicken'); // cow-and-chicken, _(*5)


Or write your own:

```php
class CowTranslator implements TranslatorInterface
{
    public function translate($str)
    {
        return str_ireplace('cow', 'supercow', $str);
    }
}

$slugifier = new Slugifier();
$slugifier->addTranslator(new CowTranslator());
$slugifier->slugify('Cow to the rescue'); // supercow-to-the-rescue

Changing the default behaviour

By default, special characters, quotes, HTML entities and more are converted. You can disable this behaviour by passing false to the constructor. This way you can start from scratch and add your own translators. The iconv transliteration is still performed though as we want to convert to ascii while preserving as much of the original data as possible., _(*6)
