Node: slugify(s)github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/str

Slug

Overview

Converts arbitrary text into a URL-safe slug — strips punctuation, lowercases, and replaces spaces with hyphens.

If you are coming from Node.js, the closest pattern is slugify(s).

Signature

go
func Slug(s string) string

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

js
slugify('Hello World');
go
s := strings.ToLower(strings.ReplaceAll(strings.TrimSpace(title), " ", "-"))
go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/str"

slug := str.Slug("Hello World!")

Example

go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/str"

slug := str.Slug("Hello World!")

Tips

Use before writing user-generated titles to URL paths.

Standard library alternative

Use the standard library directly:

go
s := strings.ToLower(strings.ReplaceAll(strings.TrimSpace(title), " ", "-"))
