String utilities¶

tool.ext.strings.slugify(value)¶

If Unidecode is available, calls slugify_i18n(). If not, parses the value with a latin-only regular expression, i.e. may return empty or otherwise useless strings for non-latin strings. Usage:

>>> slugify(u'Foo? bar! 123...')
u'foo-bar-123'

tool.ext.strings.slugify_i18n(value)¶

Transliterates given string with Unidecode and returns its “slugified” version. Usage:

>>> slugify(u'Foo? Привет! 123')
u'foo-privet-123'
