? URLify

Description

Convert any string into an valid and readable string for usage in the url.

This is a PHP port of "URLify.js" from the Django project + fallback via "Portable UTF-8". We handles symbols from many languages via an matching-array and others via "UTF8::to_ascii()".

  • https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/admin/static/admin/js/urlify.js
  • https://github.com/voku/portable-utf8

Install via "composer require"

composer require voku/urlify

Usage:

namespace: "voku\helper\URLify"

To generate slugs for URLs:

echo URLify::filter(' J\'étudie le français ');
// "J-etudie-le-francais"

echo URLify::filter('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "Lo-siento-no-hablo-espanol"

To generate slugs for file names:

echo URLify::filter('????.jpg', 60, '', true);
// "foto.jpg"

To simply transliterate characters:

echo URLify::downcode('J\'étudie le français');
// "J'etudie le francais"

echo URLify::downcode('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."

/Or use transliterate() alias:/

echo URLify::transliterate('Lo siento, no hablo español.');
// "Lo siento, no hablo espanol."

To extend the character list:

URLify::add_chars(array(
  '¿' => '?', '®' => '(r)', '¼' => '1/4',
  '¼' => '1/2', '¾' => '3/4', '¶' => 'P'
));

echo URLify::downcode('¿ ® ¼ ¼ ¾ ¶');
// "? (r) 1/2 1/2 3/4 P"

To extend or replace the default replacing list:

URLify::add_array_to_seperator(array(
  "/®/"
));

echo URLify::filter('¿ ® ¼ ¼ ¾ ¶');
// "14-14-34-P"

To extend the list of words to remove for one language:

URLify::remove_words(array('remove', 'these', 'too'), 'de');

To prioritize a certain language map:

echo URLify::filter(' Ägypten und Österreich besitzen wie üblich ein Übermaß an ähnlich öligen Attachés ', 60, 'de');
// "Aegypten-und-Oesterreich-besitzen-wie-ueblich-ein-Uebermass-aehnlich-oeligen-Attaches"
   
echo URLify::filter('Ca?alo?lu, çal??t???, müjde, laz?m, mahkûm', 60, 'tr');
// "Cagaloglu-calistigi-mujde-lazim-mahkum"

Please note that the "ü" is transliterated to "ue" in the first case, whereas it results in a simple "u" in the latter.
