Top 6 Ruby Plugin Projects

FriendlyId

6 6,093 6.3 Ruby

FriendlyId is the “Swiss Army bulldozer” of slugging and permalink plugins for ActiveRecord. It allows you to create pretty URL’s and work with human-friendly strings as if they were numeric ids for ActiveRecord models.

Project mention: Sqids – Generate Short Unique IDs from Numbers | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-25

On a side note, "Sqids ... is an open-source library that lets you generate YouTube-looking IDs from numbers.", "The main use of Sqids is purely visual."
If the purpose of it is to give a friendlier url / id, who not use something like friendly_id instead? (http://norman.github.io/friendly_id).
The url is readable and searchable through the history.
I would much rather prefer people using "www.website.com/channel/video/a-dog-walking" instead of "www.website.com/channel/video/3cXv8c".
