Usage

from slugany import slugify

slugify("España", lang="es")           # "espana"
slugify("Coração", lang="pt")          # "coracao"
slugify("Über Straße", lang="de")      # "ueber-strasse"
slugify("Cœur", lang="fr")             # "coeur"
slugify("Caffè", lang="it")            # "caffe"

With lang="auto" (default), slugany inspects the text for characteristic characters (ñ/¿/¡ for Spanish, ç/ã/õ for Portuguese, ä/ö/ü/ß for German, œ/æ for French, à/è/ì/ò/ù for Italian) and picks the table of the most frequent match. A Spanish dieresis (ü in güe/güi words like "agüero") is not treated as a German umlaut. Characters not covered by any table are handled by NFKD Unicode decomposition plus a default transliteration table (ß→ss, æ→ae, œ→oe, ø→o, ł→l, etc.).
