Sanitizer EasySlugger

A module for ProcessWire CMS/CMF. Allows the use of the EasySlugger library as Sanitizer methods.

Installation


Install the Sanitizer EasySlugger module.

Usage


The module adds four new sanitizer methods.

slugger($string, $options)

Similar to $sanitizer->pageName() - I'm not sure if there are any advantages over that method. Included because it is one of the methods offered by EasySlugger.

$slug = $sanitizer->slugger('Lorem Ipsum');
// Result: lorem-ipsum

utf8Slugger($string, $options)

Creates slugs from non-latin alphabets.

$slug = $sanitizer->utf8Slugger('这个用汉语怎么说');
// Result: zhe-ge-yong-han-yu-zen-me-shuo

seoSlugger($string, $options)

Augments the string before turning it into a slug. The conversions are related to numbers, currencies, email addresses and other common symbols.

$slug = $sanitizer->seoSlugger('The price is $5.99');
// Result: the-price-is-5-dollars-99-cents

See the EasySlugger readme for some more examples.

seoUtf8Slugger($string, $options)

A combination of utf8Slugger() and seoSlugger().

$slug = $sanitizer->seoUtf8Slugger('价钱是 $5.99');
// Result: jia-qian-shi-5-dollars-99-cents

$options argument

Each of the methods can take an $options array as a second argument.

  • separator (string): the character that separates words in the slug. Default: -
  • unique (bool): Determines whether a random suffix is added at the end of the slug. Default: false
$slug = $sanitizer->utf8Slugger('这个用汉语怎么说', ['separator' => '_', 'unique' => true]);
// Result: zhe_ge_yong_han_yu_zen_me_shuo_3ad66c4

Install and use modules at your own risk. Always have a site and database backup before installing new modules.

“We chose ProcessWire because of its excellent architecture, modular extensibility and the internal API. The CMS offers the necessary flexibility and performance for such a complex website like superbude.de. ProcessWire offers options that are only available for larger systems, such as Drupal, and allows a much slimmer development process.” —xport communication GmbH
