Crate stringcase

source ·
Expand description

This library provides some functions that convert string cases between camelCase, COBOL-CASE, kebab-case, MACRO_CASE, PascalCase, snake_case and Train-Case. And this library also provides a trait Caser which makes strings enable to convert their cases by their own methods.

Basically, these functions targets the upper and lower cases of only ASCII alphabets for capitalization, and all characters except ASCII alphabets and ASCII numbers are eliminated as word separators.

To limit characters using as separators, the functions named like *_with_sep are provided, and to keep specified characters, the functions named like *_with_keep are provided.

In this crate, the default behavior of the conversion functions is to insert a separator after a sequence of numbers and symbols, but not before them. (For example, snake_case("abc123def") ==> "abc123_def") However, for cases where you want to insert a separator before the sequence as well, the functions names like *_with_nums_as_word are provided. (For example, snake_case_with_nums_as_word("abc123def") ==> "abc_123_def")

§Install

In Cargo.toml, write this crate as a dependency.

[dependencies]
stringcase = "0.3.0"

§Usage

The function contained in this crate are executed as follows:

use stringcase::camel_case;

fn main() {
    let input = "foo-bar-baz";
    let camel = camel_case(input);
    assert_eq!(camel, "fooBarBaz");
}

And by bringing Caser with use declaration, it will be able to execute methods of strings, String or &str, to convert their cases.

use stringcase::Caser;

fn main() {
    let input = "foo-bar-baz";
    let camel = input.to_camel_case();
    assert_eq!(camel, "fooBarBaz");
}

Traits§

  • Caser is the trait to attach methods for converting strings &str and String to various cases.
