Laravel Slug Generator

Introduction

This package provides an event that will generate a unique slug when saving or creating any Eloquent model.

Installation

composer require paxha/laravel-sluggable

Usage

• Getting Started
• Examples

Getting Started

Consider the following table schema for hierarchical data:

Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->increments('id');
    $table->string('name');
    $table->string('slug')->unique();
});

Use the Sluggable trait in your model to work with slug:

class User extends Model
{
    use \Sluggable\Traits\Sluggable;
}

By default, the trait expects three things

1. slugFrom(): array (optional) if you using name column
2. slugSaveTo(): string (optional) if you using slug column
3. separator(): string (optional) default -

You can overriding it as well slugFrom(), slugSaveTo() and separator():

class User extends Model
{
    use \Sluggable\Traits\Sluggable;

    public static function slugFrom()
    {
        return ['name']; // or return ['first_name', 'last_name'];
    }
 
    public static function slugSaveTo()
    {
        return 'slug'; // or return ['user_slug'];
    }
 
    public static function separator()
    {
        return '-'; // or return '_';
    }
}

Examples

Example A

Database

Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->increments('id');
    $table->string('first_name');
    $table->string('last_name');
    $table->string('slug')->unique();
});

Model

class User extends Model
{
    use \Sluggable\Traits\Sluggable;

    protected $fillable = [
        'first_name', 'last_name',
    ];

    public static function slugFrom()
    {
        return ['first_name', 'last_name'];
    }
}

Create User

User::create([
    'first_name' => 'John',
    'last_name' => 'Doe'
]);

// or

$user = new User();
$user->first_name = 'John';
$user->last_name = 'Doe';
$user->save();

Output

{
    'first_name': 'John',
    'last_name': 'Doe',
    'slug': 'john-doe',
}

Example B

Table

Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->increments('id');
    $table->string('name');
    $table->string('user_slug')->unique();
});

Model

class User extends Model
{
    use \Sluggable\Traits\Sluggable;
    
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
    ];

    public static function slugSaveTo()
    {
        return ['user_slug'];
    }

    public static function separator()
    {
        return '_';
    }
}

Create User

User::create([
    'name' => 'John Doe'
]);

// or

$user = new User();
$user->name = 'John Doe';
$user->save();

Output

{
    'name': 'John Doe',
    'user_slug': 'john_doe',
}
