slugify_filename.separator = '_'
slugify_filename.safe_chars = '-.'
slugify_filename.max_length = 255

slugify_ru = Slugify(pretranslate=CYRILLIC)
slugify_de = Slugify(pretranslate=GERMAN)
slugify_el = Slugify(pretranslate=GREEK)

Examples
========

.. code-block:: python

from slugify import Slugify, UniqueSlugify, slugify, slugify_unicode
from slugify import slugify_url, slugify_filename
from slugify import slugify_ru, slugify_de

slugify('one kožušček') # one-kozuscek
slugify('one two three', separator='.') # one.two.three
slugify('one two three four', max_length=12) # one-two-four (12 chars)
slugify('one TWO', to_lower=True) # one-two
slugify('one TWO', capitalize=True) # One-TWO

slugify_filename(u'Дrаft №2.txt') # Draft_2.txt
slugify_url(u'Дrаft №2.txt') # draft-2-txt

my_slugify = Slugify()
my_slugify.separator = '.'
my_slugify.pretranslate = {'я': 'i', '♥': 'love'}

slugify_unique('cellar door') # cellar-door-1

def my_unique_check(text, uids):
if text in uids:

# Checks the database for a matching document
custom_slugify_unique('te occidere possunt')
