This package generates a unique slug for any Eloquent model whenever it is created or updated. Add a #[Sluggable] attribute to the model and the package handles the rest.

use Spatie\Sluggable\Attributes\Sluggable;

#[Sluggable(from: 'title', to: 'slug')]
class Post extends Model
{
}

$post = Post::create(['title' => 'activerecord is awesome']);
$post->slug; // "activerecord-is-awesome"

For features that need closures (custom source callables, scoped uniqueness, conditional skip, custom suffix generators) use the HasSlug trait with a getSlugOptions() method instead.

Highlights

• Unique slugs out of the box, with a configurable -1, -2, ... suffix on collisions.
• Self-healing URLs: route keys that combine the slug with the primary key (hello-world-5) so renaming a model never breaks an existing link. Stale slugs return a 308 redirect to the canonical URL.
• Translatable slugs through HasTranslatableSlug and spatie/laravel-translatable.
• Overridable actions: swap the slug generator or the self-healing URL logic for your own class via a config file.
• Laravel Boost skill bundled with the package, so AI assistants know how to scaffold sluggable models in your project. Boost discovers it automatically once both packages are installed.

Self-healing URLs combine the slug with the primary key. The HasSlug trait is required alongside the attribute, because it overrides Eloquent's route key and route binding methods.

#[Sluggable(from: 'title', to: 'slug', selfHealing: true)]
class Post extends Model
{
    use HasSlug;
}

// /posts/hello-world-5   → 200
// /posts/old-title-5     → 308 to /posts/hello-world-5
