repattern

A library for centralizing and organizing string replacement functions.

Built-ins:

* convert camelCasing to underscore_casing - cam$_
* convert underscore_casing to camelCasing - _$cam
* convert underscore_casing or camelCasing to Title_Casing/TitleCasing - title
* convert underscore_casing or camelCasing to PascalCasing - pascal
* strip whitespace - strip
* remove underscores - rm_

Small right now. The built-in library will grow.

Examples

$3

// granted, you could get this effect with repattern('pascal', 'favoriteColor') but you get the idea.
repattern(["cam$_", "title", "rm_"], "favoriteColor") // FavoriteColor

$3

var titleCase = repattern.make('cam$_');
titleCase('favoriteColor'); // 'favorite_color'

$3

var clean = repattern.make(['strip', 'rm_']);
clean("consistently in_consistent"); // consistentlyinconsistent

FYI - repattern.make is a nice complement to simple-map

var map = require('simple-map');
var repattern = require('repattern');

var columnCase = repattern.make('cam$_');
map({'firstName': 'John', 'lastName': 'Doe'}, columnCase); // {'first_name': 'John', 'last_name': 'Doe'}

$3

repattern.use("path$pkg", /\//gi, "-");
repattern.use("words$title", /(\s+|^)([a-z])/g, "$1$2");

adding duplicate keys will throw an error with use. If you want to override a _built-in_ use override instead:

repattern.override("prop$col", /^[a-z]/, function(v) {return v.toUpperCase();});

$3

npm install repattern

$3

var repattern = require('repattern');
