Slugtastic

Simple gem for autogenerating permalink style slugs for your ActiveRecord models.

Requirements

• Ruby 2.2.0+
• Rails 5 or higher.

It will probably work just find with earlier versions--down to Rails 3.1 and Ruby 1.9.3--but it's not tested.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "slugtastic"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install slugtastic

Usage

Usage is very simple. Just add the following to your model:

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.

There are no extra options at present.
