Uslug.js

---

Modified for Joplin:

• Added support for emojis - "🐶🐶🐶🐱" => "dogdogdogcat"
• Smaller package size: Removed dependencies on functionality that's now built-in to JavaScript (Unicode normalization, Unicode character class regular expressions).
• Types: Migrated to TypeScript.

---

Permissive slug generator that works with unicode. We keep only characters from the categories Letter, Number and Separator (see Unicode Categories) and the common CJK Unified Ideographs as defined in the version 6.0.0 of the Unicode specification.

Inspired by unicode-slugify. Note that this slug generator is different from node-slug which focus on translating unicode characters to english or latin equivalent.

Quick Examples

uslug('Быстрее и лучше!') // 'быстрее-и-лучше'
uslug('汉语/漢語') // '汉语漢語'

uslug('Y U NO', { lower: false })) // 'Y-U-NO'
uslug('Y U NO', { spaces: true })) // 'y u no'
uslug('Y-U|NO', { allowedChars: '|' })) // 'yu|no'
