Other Case Utilities

• titleCase
• swapCase
• isLowerCase
• isUpperCase
• lowerCase
• lowerCaseFirst
• upperCase
• upperCaseFirst
• spongeCase

These functions are not "case" libraries but independent functions, you must install these separately.

titleCase

Transform a string into title case following English rules.

titleCase("a simple test");
//=> "A Simple Test"

swapCase

Transform a string by swapping every character from upper to lower case, or lower to upper case.

swapCase("Test String");
//=> "tEST sTRING"

isLowerCase

Returns true if the string is lower case only.

isLowerCase("test string");
//=> true

isUpperCase

Returns true if the string is upper case only.

isUpperCase("test string");
//=> false

lowerCase

Transforms the string to lower case.

lowerCase("TEST STRING");
//=> "test string"

lowerCaseFirst

Transforms the string with the first character in lower cased.

lowerCaseFirst("TEST");
//=> "tEST"

upperCase

Transforms the string to upper case.

upperCase("test string");
//=> "TEST STRING"

upperCaseFirst

Transforms the string with the first character in upper cased.

upperCaseFirst("test");
//=> "Test"

spongeCase

Transform into a string with random capitalization applied.

spongeCase("Test String");
//=> "tEst stRINg"

Options

• splitRegexp RegExp used to split into word segments (see example).
• stripRegexp RegExp used to remove extraneous characters (default: /[^A-Z0-9]/gi).
• delimiter Value used between words (e.g. " ").
• transform Used to transform each word segment (e.g. lowerCase).

Split Example

If you find the default split hard to use, you can provide a different one. The example below will change the behavior to word2019 -> word 2019 and minifyURLs -> minify urls:

const options = {
  splitRegexp: /([a-z])([A-Z0-9])/g,
};
