django-autoslug
Django-autoslug is a reusable Django library that provides an improved slug field which can automatically:
populate itself from another field,
preserve uniqueness of the value and
use custom slugify() functions for better i18n.
The field is highly configurable.
Requirements
Python 3.12, 3.13, or 3.14.
Django 5.2 LTS, 6.0, or 6.1.
Supported versions matrix
Every cell below is exercised in CI on each push:

Older Python and Django versions reached end-of-life and are no longer supported by this fork:
Django 4.2 LTS (extended support ended 2026-04-07)
Django 5.0 / 5.1 (mainstream support ended)
Python 3.9 / 3.10 / 3.11 (Django 5.2 minimum is 3.10, but Django 6.0 and 6.1 require 3.12+, so the intersection is 3.12+)
When Django 6.2 LTS ships, it will be added to the matrix.
It may be possible to successfully use django-autoslug-iplweb in other environments but they are not tested.
Installation
python -m pip install django-autoslug
Examples
A simple example:
from django.db.models import CharField, Model
from autoslug import AutoSlugField
class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from='title')
More complex example:
from django.db.models import CharField, DateField, ForeignKey, Model
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from autoslug import AutoSlugField
class Article(Model):
title = CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date = DateField(auto_now_add=True)
author = ForeignKey(User)
slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from=lambda instance: instance.title,
unique_with=['author__name', 'pub_date__month'],
slugify=lambda value: value.replace(' ','-'))
