A JavaScript port of the activesupport gem's #to_sentence method.
npm install to-sentence#to_sentence method.---
Converts an array to a comma-separated (or whatever-separated) sentence where the final element is joined by the connector word.
Also re-opens pendantic debate over the Oxford comma.
``sh`
npm install to_sentence
to_sentence(array, options) ==> String
where options is an object with any or all of the following keys:
words_connector - the string used to join elements 0 through array.length - 2 in an array with more than two elements (defaults to “, ”) two_words_connector - the string used to join the elements in an array with exactly two elements (defaults to “ and ”) last_word_connector - the string used to join array.length - 2 and array.length - 1 in an array with more than two elements (defaults to “, and ”) locale - not yet implemented
Passing any other option will cause the method to throw an Error.
`js
const to_sentence = require('to_sentence');
to_sentence([]);
// => ''
to_sentence(['Nelson Mandela']);
// => 'Nelson Mandela'
to_sentence(['Nelson Mandela', 'an 800-year-old demigod'])
// => 'Nelson Mandela and an 800-year-old demigod'
to_sentence(['Nelson Mandela', 'an 800-year-old demigod', 'a dildo collector'])
// => 'Nelson Mandela, an 800-year-old demigod, and a dildo collector'
