I've just released my first proper Ruby gem. It's a simple permalink style slug generator for ActiveModel. Check it out at [Github](https://github.com/danbee/slugtastic) and use it in your Rails project by adding `gem "slugtastic"` to your Gemfile.
|
|
|
|
Usage is very simple. Just add the following to your model:
|
|
|
|
``` ruby
|
|
has_slug :slug, :from => :title
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will generate a slug string from the title attribute and store it in the slug attribute unless the slug already contains a string. The slug is generated pre-validation so you can still use `validates_presence_of :slug`.
