Usage

Formatters

Format a single string

<?php

use \RoadBunch\StringBean\UpperCaseWordsFormatter;

$formatter = new UpperCaseWordsFormatter();

/* Format a string */
echo $formatter->format('these.are_some-words_to uppercase');

/* Format a list of strings */
print_r($formatter->formatList('this will be upper case', 'and.so.will.this'));

output:

These.Are_Some-Words_To Uppercase

Array 
(
    [0] => 'This Will Be Upper Case'
    [1] => 'And.So.Will.This'
)

Available Formatters

SplitCamelCaseWordsFormatter can split CamelCase strings with acronyms and abbreviations.

Trimmers

<?php

use RoadBunch\StringBean\PrefixTrimmer;

$formatter = new PrefixTrimmer('This');

/* Trim a word off the front of a string */
echo $formatter->format('This is a string of words');

/* Trimmers are case-sensitive */
echo $formatter->format('this is a string of words');

output:

is a string of words

this is a string of words

Available Trimmers

Note: Trimmers implement the same interface as Formatters: FormatterInterface

Use a combination of Formatters

<?php

use RoadBunch\StringBean\CombinationFormatter;
use RoadBunch\StringBean\SplitCamelCaseFormatter;
use RoadBunch\StringBean\UpperCaseWordsFormatter;
use RoadBunch\StringBean\AbstractFormatter;

$formatter = new CombinationFormatter(
    new SplitCamelCaseFormatter(),
    new UpperCaseWordsFormatter(),
    // feel free to create a formatter on the fly
    new class extends AbstractFormatter {
        public function format(string $subject) : string{
            return "~={$subject}=~";
        }
    }
);
echo $formatter->format('aStringToFormat');

print_r($formatter->formatList('aStringToFormat', 'wild'));

output:

~=A String To Format=~

Array
(
    [0] => ~=A String To Format=~
    [1] => ~=Wild=~
)

Create your own formatter

<?php

use RoadBunch\StringBean\AbstractFormatter;

class L33tSpeakFormatter extends AbstractFormatter
{
    public function format(string $subject): string
    {
        return str_ireplace(['T', 'E', 'A'], ['7', '3', '4'], strtoupper($subject));
    }
};

$formatter = new L33tSpeakFormatter();
echo $formatter->format('leet speak');

output:

L337 SP34K
