Go Strcase

Convert strings to snake_case, camelCase, PascalCase, kebab-case and more! Supports Go initialisms, customization, and Unicode.

import "github.com/ettle/strcase"

Overview

Package strcase is a package for converting strings into various word cases (e.g. snake_case, camelCase)

go get -u github.com/ettle/strcase

Example usage

strcase.ToSnake("Hello World")     // hello_world
strcase.ToSNAKE("Hello World")     // HELLO_WORLD

strcase.ToKebab("helloWorld")      // hello-world
strcase.ToKEBAB("helloWorld")      // HELLO-WORLD

strcase.ToPascal("hello-world")    // HelloWorld
strcase.ToCamel("hello-world")     // helloWorld

// Handle odd cases
strcase.ToSnake("FOOBar")          // foo_bar

// Support Go initialisms
strcase.ToGoCamel("http_response") // HTTPResponse

// Specify case and delimiter
strcase.ToCase("HelloWorld", strcase.UpperCase, '.') // HELLO.WORLD

Why this package

String strcase is pretty straight forward and there are a number of methods to do it. This package is fully featured, more customizable, better tested, and faster* than other packages and what you would probably whip up yourself.

Unicode support

We work for with unicode strings and pay very little performance penalty for it as we optimized for the common use case of ASCII only strings.

Customization

You can create a custom caser that changes the behavior to what you want. This customization also reduces the pressure for us to change the default behavior which means that things are more stable for everyone involved. The goal is to make the common path easy and fast, while making the uncommon path possible.

 c := NewCaser(
	// Use Go's default initialisms e.g. ID, HTML
 	true,
	// Override initialisms (e.g. don't initialize HTML but initialize SSL
 	map[string]bool{"SSL": true, "HTML": false},
	// Write your own custom SplitFn
	//
 	NewSplitFn(
 		[]rune{'*', '.', ','},
 		SplitCase,
 		SplitAcronym,
 		PreserveNumberFormatting,
 		SplitBeforeNumber,
 		SplitAfterNumber,
 	))
 assert.Equal(t, "http_200", c.ToSnake("http200"))

Initialism support

By default, we use the golint intialisms list. You can customize and override the initialisms if you wish to add additional ones, such as "SSL" or "CMS" or domain specific ones to your industry.

ToGoCamel("http_response") // HTTPResponse
ToGoSnake("http_response") // HTTP_response

Test coverage

We have a wide ranging test suite to make sure that we understand our behavior. Test coverage isn't everything, but we aim for 100% coverage.

Fast

Optimized to reduce memory allocations with Builder. Benchmarked and optimized around common cases.

We're on par with the fastest packages (that have less features) and much faster than others. We also benchmarked against code snippets. Using string builders to reduce memory allocation and reordering boolean checks for the common cases have a large performance impact.

Hopefully I was fair to each library and happy to rerun benchmarks differently or reword my commentary based on suggestions or updates.

Why not this package

If every nanosecond matters and this is used in a tight loop, use segment.io's libraries (https://github.com/segmentio/go-snakecase and https://github.com/segmentio/go-camelcase). They lack features, but make up for it by being blazing fast. Alternatively, if you need your code to work slightly differently, fork them and tailor it for your use case.

If you don't like having external imports, I get it. This package only imports packages for testing, otherwise it only uses the standard library. If that's not enough, you can use this repo as the foundation for your own. MIT Licensed.

This package is still relatively new and while I've used it for a while personally, it doesn't have the miles that other packages do. I've tested this code agains't their test cases to make sure that there aren't any surprises.

Migrating from other packages

If you are migrating from from another package, you may find slight differences in output. To reduce the delta, you may find it helpful to use the following custom casers to mimic the behavior of the other package.

// From <a href="https://github.com/iancoleman/strcase">https://github.com/iancoleman/strcase</a>
var c = NewCaser(false, nil, NewSplitFn([]rune{'_', '-', '.'}, SplitCase, SplitAcronym, SplitBeforeNumber))

// From <a href="https://github.com/stoewer/go-strcase">https://github.com/stoewer/go-strcase</a>
var c = NewCaser(false, nil, NewSplitFn([]rune{'_', '-'}, SplitCase), SplitAcronym)

Notes on function arguments

goInitialisms: Whether to use Golint's intialisms

initialismOverrides: A mapping of extra initialisms
Keys must be in ALL CAPS. Merged with Golint's if goInitialisms is set.
Setting a key to false will override Golint's.

Override the default split function. Consider using NewSplitFn to
configure one instead of writing your own.

    SplitAcronym
    // SplitBeforeNumber - port80 -> port_80
    SplitBeforeNumber
    // SplitAfterNumber - 200status -> 200_status
    SplitAfterNumber
    // PreserveNumberFormatting - a.b.2,000.3.c -> a_b_2,000.3_c
    PreserveNumberFormatting
)

type WordCase

type WordCase int

WordCase is an enumeration of the ways to format a word.
