Regex for slug in symfont route

I'm having trouble creating a Regex to match URL slugs [a-z] ("words" separated by single dashes) like this:

wordone-wordtwo-wordtree

in route:

csa_platform_category:
    path:     /c/{slug}
    defaults: { _controller: CSAPlatformBundle:Category:index }
    requirements:
        slug: "^[a-z]+(?:-[a-z]+)*$"

in twig:

<a href="{{ path('csa_platform_category', {'slug': cat.slug}) }}">{{ cat.name }}</a>

The displayed error is:

An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Parameter "slug" for route "csa_platform_category" must match "[a-z]+(?:-[a-z]+)*" ("" given) to generate a corresponding URL.").

I'm quite bad with regular expressions, so any help would be appreciated.

The error you are having is saying than your cat.slug is empty.

("" given)

You should check the data in cat object using var_dump or dump
