Today I needed a function to create a slug (an ASCII-only representation of
|
||
a string). I went Googling a bit, and found an
|
||
excellend [Flask snippet](http://flask.pocoo.org/snippets/5/). Problem is,
|
||
it is designed for Python 2, so I came up with a Python 3 version.
|
||
|
||
{% gist 1866fd363f75f4da5f86103952e387f6 slugify.py %}
|
||
|
||
As I don’t really like the transliteration done in the first example
|
||
(e.g. converting ü to ue), I went with the second example.
