# slugify
[![npm-version]][npm] [![travis-ci]][travis] [![coveralls-status]][coveralls]
```js
var slugify = require('slugify')
slugify('some string') // some-string
// if you prefer something other than '-' as separator
slugify('some string', '_') // some_string
```
- Vanilla ES5 JavaScript
- No dependencies
- Coerces foreign symbols to their English equivalent (check out the [charMap][charmap] for more details)
- Works in the browser (window.slugify) and AMD/CommonJS-flavored module loaders
## Options
```js
slugify('some string', {
replacement: '-', // replace spaces with replacement character, defaults to `-`
remove: undefined, // remove characters that match regex, defaults to `undefined`
lower: false, // convert to lower case, defaults to `false`
strict: false, // strip special characters except replacement, defaults to `false`
})
```
For example, to remove `*+~.()'"!:@` from the result slug, you can use `slugify('..', {remove: /[*+~.()'"!:@]/g})`.
## Extend
Out of the box `slugify` comes with support for a handful of Unicode symbols. For example the `☢` (radioactive) symbol is not defined in the [`charMap`][charmap] and therefore it will be stripped by default:
```js
slugify('unicode ♥ is ☢') // unicode-love-is
```
However you can extend the supported symbols, or override the existing ones with your own:
```js
slugify.extend({'☢': 'radioactive'})
slugify('unicode ♥ is ☢') // unicode-love-is-radioactive
```
Keep in mind that the `extend` method extends/overrides the default `charMap` for the entire process. In case you need a fresh instance of the slugify's `charMap` object you have to clean up the module cache first:
```js
delete require.cache[require.resolve('slugify')]
var slugify = require('slugify')
```
## Contribute
1. Add chars to `charmap.json`
2. Run tests `npm test`
3. The tests will build the charmap in `index.js` and will sort the `charmap.json`
4. Commit **all** modified files

> This module was originally a vanilla javascript port of [node-slug][node-slug].<br>
> Note that the original [slug][slug] module has been ported to vanilla javascript too.<br>
> One major difference between the two modules is that `slugify` does not depend on the external [unicode][unicode] module.
