It transforms strings by removing accents, converting to lowercase, and replacing spaces with hyphens, producing URL-safe identifiers. The package offers both a Python API and a command-line interface for the same operation.\n\nThe core slugifying logic is derived from Django and carries a BSD license, while the packaging layer is released to the public domain. However, the package has received no maintenance since its initial release on 2010-12-07, with no updates across 5729 days. It has no declared runtime dependencies, making installation straightforward, but the lack of maintenance raises questions about compatibility with modern Python versions and whether edge cases in Unicode handling have been addressed.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last release 2010-12-07, no updates in 5729 days), has unclear mixed licensing (public domain + BSD), and provides no Python version guarantees. For slug generation, use a maintained alternative or a modern framework's built-in utilities instead."},"id":"slugify","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/slugify","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/slugify.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/slugify/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2010-12-07","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"slugify","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A generic slugifier."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":211790,"position":9473,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.0.1"}
