Title Formatter

Custom string formatter that converts any string into Title Case

This package converts any string into title case. This means only using capital letters for the principal words. Articles, conjunctions, and prepositions do not get capital letters unless they start or end the title

| input | output | | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------- | | snowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs | Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs | | NewcastleUponTyne | Newcastle upon Tyne | | brighton_on_sea | Brighton on Sea | | apple_releases_new_ipad | Apple Releases New iPad | | 7-food-trends | 7 Food Trends |

The package contains a list of words that use some sort of special casing, for example: McDonalds, iPhone, and YouTube.

Installation

$ npm install @skuhnow/directus-format-title

Usage

The package by default converts camelCase, PascalCase, underscore, and "regular" sentences to Title Case

formatTitle(string, [separator]);

formatTitle('snowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs');
// => Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

You can provide an optional separator regex as a second parameter to support splitting the string on different characters. By default, this regex is set to /\s|-|_/g.
