Django-autoslug is a reusable Django library that provides an improved
slug field which can automatically:

a) populate itself from another field,
b) preserve uniqueness of the value and
c) use custom ``slugify()`` functions for better i18n.

The field is highly configurable.

Requirements
------------

*Python 3.8+ or PyPy*.

*Django 3.2* or higher.

It may be possible to successfully use django-autoslug in other environments
but they are not tested.

.. note::

PyPy3 is not officially supported only because there were some problems with
permissions and ``__pycache__`` on CI unrelated to django-autoslug itself.

Installation
------------

.. code-block:: python

python -m pip install django-autoslug

Examples
--------

A simple example:

.. code-block:: python

from django.db.models import CharField, Model
from autoslug import AutoSlugField

class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from='title')

More complex example:

.. code-block:: python

from django.db.models import CharField, DateField, ForeignKey, Model
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from autoslug import AutoSlugField

class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date = DateField(auto_now_add=True)
author = ForeignKey(User)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from=lambda instance: instance.title,
unique_with=['author__name', 'pub_date__month'],
slugify=lambda value: value.replace(' ','-'))
