latinify

Library to help with Unicode conversion and romanization from other alphabets.

Installation via Go Modules

Add the package to your go.mod with the command:

go get github.com/heat/latinify

Then import it in your code:

import "github.com/heat/latinify"

Usage

Basic string conversion

Use String to normalize accents and other characters to the Latin alphabet:

texto, err := latinify.String("Olá, 世界")

Conversion with custom tables

StringWithTable allows applying additional mapping tables:

table := latinify.Table{
    'ü': 'u',
    'ä': 'a',
}
texto, err := latinify.StringWithTable("für ärger", table)

Generate slugs for URLs

Slugify creates a URL-friendly version of the given text:

slug, err := latinify.Slugify("Olá, Mundo!")
// slug == "ola-mundo"
