from django.db import models
from django.utils.text import slugify
class Blog(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
slug = models.TextField()
def save(
self, force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None, update_fields=None
):
self.slug = slugify(self.name)

force_insert=force_insert,
force_update=force_update,
using=using,
update_fields=update_fields,
