An automated slug field for Django.
Project description
Django-autoslug is a reusable Django library that provides an improved slug field which can automatically:
populate itself from another field,
preserve uniqueness of the value and
use custom slugify() functions for better i18n.
Requirements
Obviously, a more or less recent version of Django.
The following versions of Python are officially supported: 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, PyPy.
It may be possible to successfully use django-autoslug in other environments but they are not tested.
Examples
A simple example:
from django.db.models import CharField, Model
from autoslug import AutoSlugField
class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from='title')
More complex example:
from django.db.models import CharField, DateField, ForeignKey, Model
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from autoslug import AutoSlugField
class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date = DateField(auto_now_add=True)
author = ForeignKey(User)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from=lambda instance: instance.title,
unique_with=['author__name', 'pub_date__month'],
slugify=lambda value: value.replace(' ','-'))
Documentation
See complete HTML documentation for details. Sometimes it may get slightly outdated. You can always have the latest snapsnot by building it from the source (using Sphinx).
