Slugtastic

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

Requirements

• Ruby 1.9.2 or 1.9.3
• Rails 3.1 or higher.

It should work with Rails 3.0 but it hasn't been 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:

has_slug :slug, :from => :title

This will generate a slug string from the title atrribute 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.
