Generate ASCII slugs from unicode strings
</p>
zlugify is part of [_zedd_](https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd), a collection of useful libraries for zig.
## zlugify
_zlugify_ is a library to generate slugs from all types of UTF-8 encoded strings. It uses [anyascii.zig](https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd/anyascii.zig) to convert UTF-8 encoded strings into ASCII-only strings.
## Versions
ZRM 1.0.0 is made and tested with zig 0.13.0.
## How to use
### Install
In your project directory:
```shell
$ zig fetch --save https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd/zlugify/archive/v1.0.0.tar.gz
```
In `build.zig`:
```zig
// Add zlugify dependency.
const zlugify = b.dependency("zlugify", .{
.target = target,
.optimize = optimize,
});
exe.root_module.addImport("zlugify", zlugify.module("zlugify"));
```
### Examples
These examples are highly inspired from the test cases that you can find at the end of [`lib.zig`](https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd/zlugify/src/branch/main/src/lib.zig).
#### trim and normalize
```zig
const slugify = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugify(allocator, " This is a test.\t\n");
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("this-is-a-test", slug);
```
#### remove diacritics and unnecessary spaces
```zig
const slugify = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugify(allocator, "SôMÈThing \t ÉLSÈ");
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("something-else", slug);
```
#### convert non-latin characters
```zig
const slugify = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugify(allocator, "埼玉 県");
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("qiyu-xian", slug);
```
#### convert ascii-like characters
```zig
const slugify = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugify(allocator, "𝒔𝒍𝒖𝒈𝒊𝒇𝒚 𝒂 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈");
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("slugify-a-string", slug);
```
#### convert emojis
```zig
const slugify = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugify(allocator, "hello 🦊");
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("hello-fox", slug);
```
#### customized separator
```zig
const slugifySeparator = @import("zlugify").slugify;
const slug = try slugifySeparator(allocator, "tôi yêu những chú kỳ lân", '_');
defer allocator.free(slug);
try std.testing.expectEqualStrings("toi_yeu_nhung_chu_ky_lan", slug);
```
