SeoUrl
======

[](#seourl)

Simple ZF2 SEO Url generator. Module converts strings to valid Urls. For example: `I'm starting a new project – which version of Zend Framework should I use?` will be converted to `im-starting-a-new-project-which-version-of-zend-framework-should-i-use`. SEO Url Module works also with non latin characters.

For string convertation I'm using part of CodeIgniter's helper [url\_title()](http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/helpers/url_helper.html "CodeIgniter - Url helper").

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

For the installation uses composer [composer](http://getcomposer.org "composer - package manager"). Add this project in your composer.json:

```
"require": {
    "cyrkulewski/seo-url": "dev-master"
}

```

Post Installation
-----------------

[](#post-installation)

Configuration:

- Add the module of `config/application.config.php` under the array `modules`, insert `SeoUrl`.
- Copy a file named `seourl.global.php.dist` to `config/autoload/` and change name to `seourl.global.php`.
- Modify config to fit your expectations.

Examples
========

[](#examples)

Default use of SEO Url
----------------------

[](#default-use-of-seo-url)

```
$slug = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('SeoUrl\Slug');
echo $slug->create("I'm starting a new project – which version of Zend Framework should I use?");
```

Advanced use of SEO Url
-----------------------

[](#advanced-use-of-seo-url)

By default SEO Url use parameters defined in `config/autoload/seourl.global.php`. But one might need to use different setup in different places around the code. In this case one can overwrite default confid parameters.

```
$slug = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('SeoUrl\Slug');
$slug->setMinLength(10);
$slug->setMaxLength(100);
$slug->setSeparator('_');
$slug->setStringEncoding('UTF-16');
$slug->setForeignChars(array('/я/' => 'ja'));
echo $slug->create("I'm starting a new project – which version of Zend Framework should I use?");
```
