futape/string-utility
=====================

[](#futapestring-utility)

This library offers a set of string utilities.

Utility functions are implemented as static functions in an abstract class, which is never expected to be instantiated.

Most functions are implemented multibyte-safe. If not, this is mentioned in the source code.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require futape/string-utility
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Futape\Utility\String\Strings;

echo Strings::stripLeft('foobar', 'foo'); // "bar"
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

The library is tested by unit tests using PHP Unit.

To execute the tests, install the composer dependencies (including the dev-dependencies), switch into the `tests`directory and run the following command:

```
../vendor/bin/phpunit
```

###  Alternatives

[igbinary/igbinary

Igbinary is a drop in replacement for the standard php serializer. Instead of the time and space consuming textual representation used by PHP's serialize(), igbinary stores php data structures in a compact binary form. Savings are significant when using memcached or similar memory based storages for serialized data.
