A common use-case would be the converting of class-names or property-names to table-names or titles to slugs for URLs. It can also generate the plural or singular of a string or ordinalize numbers. Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require talesoft/tale-inflector ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` use Tale\Inflector; $inflector = new Inflector(); //Table generation $inflector->inflect('ProductAttribute', ['tableize', 'pluralize']); //product_attributes $inflector->inflect('someProperty', ['tableize']); //some_property //Canonicalization / slugs $inflector->inflect('Some title I inserted', ['canonicalize']); //some-title-i-inserted $inflector->inflect('Was höre ich da?', ['canonicalize']); //was-hore-ich-da //Or just use the static methods for quick access Inflector::canonicalize('Some random title'); //some-random-title ``` Available strategies/static methods ----------------------------------- [](#available-strategiesstatic-methods) ### camelize [](#camelize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\CamelCaseStrategy ``` some Random string = SomeRandomString ``` ### dasherize [](#dasherize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\DashRejoinStrategy ``` some Random string = some-Random-string ``` ### canonicalize [](#canonicalize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\KebabCaseStrategy ``` some Random string = some-random-string ``` ### variableize [](#variableize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\LowerCamelCaseStrategy ``` some Random string = someRandomString ``` ### constantize [](#constantize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\MacroCaseStrategy ``` some Random string = SOME_RANDOM_STRING ``` ### tableize [](#tableize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\SnakeCaseStrategy ``` some Random string = some_random_string ``` ### underscorize [](#underscorize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\UnderscoreRejoinStrategy ``` some Random string = some_Random_string ``` ### humanize [](#humanize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\UppercaseWordsStrategy ``` some Random string = Some Random String ``` ### ordinalize [](#ordinalize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\NumberOrdinalStrategy ``` 1 = 1st 12 = 12th 23 = 23rd ``` ### pluralize [](#pluralize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\MacroCaseStrategy ``` rabbit = rabbits car = cars house = houses ``` ### singularize [](#singularize) > Tale\\Inflector\\Strategy\\MacroCaseStrategy ``` rabbits = rabbit cars = car houses = house ``` Roll your own ------------- [](#roll-your-own) ``` use Tale\Inflector\StrategyInterface; class MyInflectionStrategy implements StrategyInterface { public function inflect(string $string): string { return "!! {$string} !!"; } } $inflector->inflect('Test', [MyInflectionStrategy::class]); //!!
