Description

It is worthwhile enhancing both the slugify filter and admin/media/js/admin/urlify.js to handle some foreign letters a bit better. We aren't looking to create a transliteration function, but some lightweight improvements are certainly possible.

A start was made by Bill de hÓra in this thread (django-developers) and there is also some good data in #2716.

Attached the GREEK_MAP, as requested from Bill de hÓra. Sorry for the double attachment, Trac barfed. They are the same. Note that it is encoded in UTF-8, you have to download the original and open it with an UTF-8 aware editor to see the greek characters.

  • keywords set to slug unicode i18n.
  • has_patch set to 1.

I found a solution for characters with accents, and anothers used on Europe.

Got from http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/98/ (_string_to_slug method) that points to http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/251871 (Aaron Bentley) 

E.g:
It translates: Á È ï ô ü ñ
to:            A E i o u n

so it's very usefull for a lot of languages.

A patch is added.

(In [5608]) unicode: Added unicode-aware slugify filter (in Python) and better non-ASCII handling for the Javascript slug creator in admin. Can never be perfect here, but this is more tolerant in many cases. Fixed #4365. Thanks, Bill de h?\195?\147ra, Baptiste, orestis@orestis.gr, Ahmet and Jonas for contributions to this.
