= FriendlyId
|
2
|
+
|
3
|
+
FriendlyId is the "Swiss Army bulldozer" of slugging and permalink plugins for
|
4
|
+
Ruby on Rails. It allows you to create pretty URL's and work with
|
5
|
+
human-friendly strings as if they were numeric ids for ActiveRecord models.
|
6
|
+
|
7
|
+
Using FriendlyId, it's easy to make your application use URL's like:
|
8
|
+
|
9
|
+
http://example.com/states/washington
|
10
|
+
|
11
|
+
instead of:
|
12
|
+
|
13
|
+
http://example.com/states/4323454
|
14
|
+
|
15
|
+
You can always read the latest version of this document at the {friendly_id page on
|
16
|
+
rdoc.info}[http://rdoc.info/projects/norman/friendly_id].
|
17
|
+
|
18
|
+
=== Why?
|
19
|
+
|
20
|
+
* Text-based id's look better
|
21
|
+
* They make URL's easier to remember.
|
22
|
+
* They give no hint about the number of records in your database.
|
23
|
+
* They are better for search engine optimization.
|
24
|
+
|
25
|
+
=== But...
|
26
|
+
|
27
|
+
* They can change, breaking your URL's and your SEO.
|
28
|
+
* It can be tricky to ensure they're always unique.
|
29
|
+
* They can become a pain to manage in large Rails applications.
|
30
|
+
* They can conflict with your application's namespace.
|
31
|
+
|
32
|
+
FriendlyId tries to offer you the all the advantages, and avoid or soften the
|
33
|
+
potential impact of the disadvantages.
|
34
|
+
|
35
|
+
== Typical Uses
|
36
|
+
|
37
|
+
=== User names ("non-slugged" models)
|
38
|
+
|
39
|
+
Usually users have unique user names stored in a column with a unique
|
40
|
+
constraint or index. In this case, all you need to do is add this to your
|
41
|
+
model:
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
has_friendly_id :login
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
and you can then write code like this:
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
@member = Member.find("joe") # the old Member.find(1) still works, too.
|
48
|
+
@member.to_param # returns "joe"
|
49
|
+
redirect_to @member # The URL would be /members/joe
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
=== Blog posts ("slugged" models)
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
Blog posts generally have titles which are distinctive but not necessarily
|
54
|
+
unique. In this and similar cases, FriendlyId provides a Slug model separate
|
55
|
+
from your Post model. The Slug model handles duplicate friendly_ids, as well
|
56
|
+
as versioning.
|
57
|
+
|
58
|
+
Your model code would look something like this:
|
59
|
+
|
60
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true
|
61
|
+
|
62
|
+
and you can then write code like this:
|
63
|
+
|
64
|
+
@post = Post.find("new-version-released") # Post.find(1) still works, too
|
65
|
+
@post.to_param # returns "new-version-released"
|
66
|
+
redirect_to @post # The URL would be /posts/new-version-released
|
67
|
+
|
68
|
+
Now in your controllers, if you want to prevent people from accessing your
|
69
|
+
models by numeric id, you can detect whether they were found by the
|
70
|
+
friendly_id:
|
71
|
+
|
72
|
+
@post = Post.find(params[:id])
|
73
|
+
raise "some error" if !@post.found_using_friendly_id?
|
74
|
+
|
75
|
+
or, you can 301 redirect if the model was found by the numeric id if you don't
|
76
|
+
care about numeric access, but want the SEO value of the friendly_id:
|
77
|
+
|
78
|
+
@post = Post.find(params[:id])
|
79
|
+
redirect_to @post, :status => 301 if @post.has_better_id?
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
The "has_better_id?" method returns true if the model was found with the
|
82
|
+
numeric id, or with an outdated slug.
|
83
|
+
|
84
|
+
== Extra Features
|
85
|
+
|
86
|
+
=== Slug Versioning
|
87
|
+
|
88
|
+
FriendlyId will record changes to slugs so that you can tell when the model is
|
89
|
+
found with an older slug, or by the numeric id. This can be useful if you want
|
90
|
+
to do a 301 redirect to your updated URL.
|
91
|
+
|
92
|
+
class PostsController < ApplicationController
|
93
|
+
|
94
|
+
before_filter ensure_current_post_url, :only => :show
|
95
|
+
|
96
|
+
...
|
97
|
+
|
98
|
+
def ensure_current_post_url
|
99
|
+
redirect_to @post, :status => :moved_permanently if @post.has_better_id?
|
100
|
+
end
|
101
|
+
|
102
|
+
end
|
103
|
+
|
104
|
+
This is particularly useful when implementing FrindlyId on an existing
|
105
|
+
website that already has many URL's with the old numeric id listed on search
|
106
|
+
engines. When the search engine spiders crawl your site, they will
|
107
|
+
eventually pick up the new, more SEO-friendly URL's.
|
108
|
+
|
109
|
+
=== Non-unique Slug Names
|
110
|
+
|
111
|
+
FriendlyId will append a arbitrary number to the end of the id to keep it
|
112
|
+
unique if necessary:
|
113
|
+
|
114
|
+
/posts/new-version-released
|
115
|
+
/posts/new-version-released--2
|
116
|
+
/posts/new-version-released--3
|
117
|
+
...
|
118
|
+
etc.
|
119
|
+
|
120
|
+
Note that the number is preceeded by two dashes to distinguish it from the
|
121
|
+
rest of the slug. This is important to enable having slugs like:
|
122
|
+
|
123
|
+
/cars/peugeot-206
|
124
|
+
/cars/peugeot-206--2
|
125
|
+
|
126
|
+
=== Reserved Names
|
127
|
+
|
128
|
+
You can mark off some strings as reserved so that, for example, you don't end
|
129
|
+
up with this problem:
|
130
|
+
|
131
|
+
/users/joe-schmoe # A user chose "joe schmoe" as his user name - no worries.
|
132
|
+
/users/new # A user chose "new" as his user name, and now no one can sign up.
|
133
|
+
|
134
|
+
Here's how to do it:
|
135
|
+
|
136
|
+
class Restaurant < ActiveRecord::Base
|
137
|
+
belongs_to :city
|
138
|
+
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true, :reserved => ["my", "values"]
|
139
|
+
end
|
140
|
+
|
141
|
+
As of FriendlyId version 2.0.2, "new" and "index" are reseved by default. When
|
142
|
+
you attempt to store a reserved value, FriendlyId raises a
|
143
|
+
FriendlyId::SlugGenerationError.
|
144
|
+
|
145
|
+
=== Cached slugs
|
146
|
+
|
147
|
+
Checking the slugs table all the time has an impact on performance, so as of
|
148
|
+
2.3.0, FriendlyId offers slug caching.
|
149
|
+
|
150
|
+
This feature can improve the performance of some views by about 25%, and reduce
|
151
|
+
memory consumption by about 40% as compared to the same view without cached
|
152
|
+
slugs. The biggest improvement will be for "index" type views with many links
|
153
|
+
that depend on slugs to generate the URL.
|
154
|
+
|
155
|
+
==== Automagic setup:
|
156
|
+
|
157
|
+
To enable slug caching, simply add a column named "cached_slug" to your model.
|
158
|
+
FriendlyId will automagically use this column if it detects it:
|
159
|
+
|
160
|
+
class AddCachedSlugToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
|
161
|
+
def self.up
|
162
|
+
add_column :users, :cached_slug, :string
|
163
|
+
end
|
164
|
+
|
165
|
+
def self.down
|
166
|
+
remove_column :users, :cached_slug
|
167
|
+
end
|
168
|
+
end
|
169
|
+
|
170
|
+
Then, redo the slugs:
|
171
|
+
|
172
|
+
rake friendly_id:redo_slugs MODEL=User
|
173
|
+
|
174
|
+
This feature exists largely to improve the performance of URL
|
175
|
+
generation, the part of Rails where FriendlyId has the biggest
|
176
|
+
performance impact. FriendlyId never queries against this column, so
|
177
|
+
it's not necessary to add an index on it unless your application does.
|
178
|
+
|
179
|
+
Two warnings when using this feature:
|
180
|
+
|
181
|
+
*DO NOT* forget to redo the slugs, or else this feature will not work!
|
182
|
+
|
183
|
+
Also, this feature uses +attr_protected+ to protect the cached_slug
|
184
|
+
column, unless you have already invoked +attr_accessible+. So if you
|
185
|
+
wish to use +attr_accessible+, you must invoke it BEFORE you invoke
|
186
|
+
+has_friendly_id+ in your class.
|
187
|
+
|
188
|
+
==== Using a custom column name:
|
189
|
+
|
190
|
+
You can also use a different name for the column if you choose, via the
|
191
|
+
:cache_column config option:
|
192
|
+
|
193
|
+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
|
194
|
+
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true, :cache_column => 'my_cached_slug'
|
195
|
+
end
|
196
|
+
|
197
|
+
=== Scoped Slugs
|
198
|
+
|
199
|
+
FriendlyId can generate unique slugs within a given scope. For example:
|
200
|
+
|
201
|
+
class Restaurant < ActiveRecord::Base
|
202
|
+
belongs_to :city
|
203
|
+
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true, :scope => :city
|
204
|
+
end
|
205
|
+
|
206
|
+
class City < ActiveRecord::Base
|
207
|
+
has_many :restaurants
|
208
|
+
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true
|
209
|
+
end
|
210
|
+
|
211
|
+
http://example.org/cities/seattle/restaurants/joes-diner
|
212
|
+
http://example.org/cities/chicago/restaurants/joes-diner
|
213
|
+
|
214
|
+
Restaurant.find("joes-diner", :scope => "seattle") # returns 1 record
|
215
|
+
Restaurant.find("joes-diner", :scope => "chicago") # returns 1 record
|
216
|
+
Restaurant.find("joes-diner") # returns both records
|
217
|
+
|
218
|
+
|
219
|
+
The value for the :scope key in your model can be a custom method you define,
|
220
|
+
or the name of a relation. If it's the name of a relation, then the scope's
|
221
|
+
text value will be the result of calling <code>to_param</code> on the related
|
222
|
+
model record. In the example above, the city model also uses FriendlyId and so
|
223
|
+
its <code>to_param</code> method returns its friendly_id: chicago or seattle.
|
224
|
+
|
225
|
+
This feature is new in FriendlyId 2 and should be considered of experimental
|
226
|
+
quality. Please don't use this for code that needs to run on the Space
|
227
|
+
Shuttle.
|
228
|
+
|
229
|
+
=== Text Normalization
|
230
|
+
|
231
|
+
FriendlyId's slugging can strip diacritics from Western European characters,
|
232
|
+
so that you can have ASCII-only URL's; for example, conveting "ñøîéçü" to
|
233
|
+
"noiecu."
|
234
|
+
|
235
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true, :strip_diacritics => true
|
236
|
+
|
237
|
+
If you are not using slugs, you'll have to do this manually for whatever value
|
238
|
+
you're using as the friendly_id.
|
239
|
+
|
240
|
+
=== Diacritic-sensitive normalization
|
241
|
+
|
242
|
+
FriendlyId can also normalize slug text while preserving accented characters, if
|
243
|
+
you prefer to leave them in your URL's:
|
244
|
+
|
245
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true
|
246
|
+
...
|
247
|
+
@post = Post.create(:title => "¡Feliz Año!")
|
248
|
+
@post.friendly_id # "feliz-año"
|
249
|
+
|
250
|
+
=== Unicode URL's
|
251
|
+
|
252
|
+
FriendlyId can generate slugs in any language that can be written with
|
253
|
+
Unicode. It does its best to strip away punctuation regardless of the language
|
254
|
+
being used. Since the authors only speak English, Spanish, Portuguese and
|
255
|
+
German, this has not been extensively tested with anything like Chinese,
|
256
|
+
Russian, Greek, etc, but it "should work." If you're a speaker of a language
|
257
|
+
that uses a non-Roman writing system, your feedback would be most welcome.
|
258
|
+
|
259
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true
|
260
|
+
...
|
261
|
+
@post = Post.create(:title => "友好编号在中国")
|
262
|
+
@post.friendly_id # "友好编号在中国"
|
263
|
+
@post2 = Post.create(:title => "友好编号在中国")
|
264
|
+
@post2.friendly_id # "友好编号在中国--2"
|
265
|
+
|
266
|
+
=== Custom Slug Generation
|
267
|
+
|
268
|
+
While FriendlyId's slug generation options work for most people, you may need
|
269
|
+
something else. As of version 2.0.4 you can pass in your own custom slug
|
270
|
+
generation block:
|
271
|
+
|
272
|
+
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
|
273
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true do |text|
|
274
|
+
MySlugGeneratorClass::my_slug_method(text)
|
275
|
+
end
|
276
|
+
end
|
277
|
+
|
278
|
+
FriendlyId will still respect your settings for max length and reserved words,
|
279
|
+
but will use your block rather than the baked-in methods to normalize the
|
280
|
+
friendly_id text.
|
281
|
+
|
282
|
+
== Getting it
|
283
|
+
|
284
|
+
FriendlyId is best installed as a Ruby Gem:
|
285
|
+
|
286
|
+
gem install friendly_id
|
287
|
+
|
288
|
+
Alternatively, you can install it as a Rails plugin, though this is
|
289
|
+
discouraged:
|
290
|
+
|
291
|
+
./script/plugin install git://github.com/norman/friendly_id.git
|
292
|
+
|
293
|
+
== Setting it up
|
294
|
+
|
295
|
+
The current release works with Rails 2.2 and above, and is compatible with
|
296
|
+
Ruby 1.8 and 1.9.
|
297
|
+
|
298
|
+
1) Install the Gem:
|
299
|
+
|
300
|
+
sudo gem install friendly_id
|
301
|
+
cd my_app
|
302
|
+
script/generate friendly_id
|
303
|
+
rake db:migrate
|
304
|
+
|
305
|
+
2) Add the gem to config/environment.rb:
|
306
|
+
|
307
|
+
config.gem "friendly_id"
|
308
|
+
|
309
|
+
3) Add some code to your models:
|
310
|
+
|
311
|
+
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
|
312
|
+
has_friendly_id :title, :use_slug => true
|
313
|
+
end
|
314
|
+
|
315
|
+
4) If you are using slugs, you can use a Rake task to generate slugs for your
|
316
|
+
existing records:
|
317
|
+
|
318
|
+
rake friendly_id:make_slugs MODEL=MyModelName
|
319
|
+
|
320
|
+
If you eventually want to expire old slugs every so often, or perhaps every
|
321
|
+
day via cron, you can do:
|
322
|
+
|
323
|
+
rake friendly_id:remove_old_slugs
|
324
|
+
|
325
|
+
The default is to remove dead slugs older than 45 days, but is configurable:
|
326
|
+
|
327
|
+
rake friendly_id:remove_old_slugs MODEL=MyModelName DAYS=60
|
328
|
+
|
329
|
+
== Installing an older version
|
330
|
+
|
331
|
+
You can download older versions of FriendlyId from Github that work with Rails <
|
332
|
+
2.2. These versions are, however, no longer maintained or supported.
|
333
|
+
|
334
|
+
== Hacking FriendlyId:
|
335
|
+
|
336
|
+
FriendlyId is {hosted on Github}[git://github.com/norman/friendly_id.git], and
|
337
|
+
we love pull requests. :-)
|
338
|
+
|
339
|
+
== Bugs:
|
340
|
+
|
341
|
+
Please report them on the {Github issue tracker}[http://github.com/norman/friendly_id/issues]
|
342
|
+
for this project.
|
343
|
+
|
344
|
+
If you have a bug to report, please include the following information:
|
345
|
+
|
346
|
+
* Stack trace and error message.
|
347
|
+

|
348
|
+
* Any snippets of relevant model, view or controller code that shows how your are using FriendlyId.
|
349
|
+
|
350
|
+
If you are able to, it helps even more if you can fork FriendlyId on Github, and
|
351
|
+
add a test that reproduces the error you are experiencing.
