Javascript lacks complete string manipulation operations. This an attempt to fill that gap. List of build-in methods can be found for example from Dive Into JavaScript.
As name states this an extension for Underscore.js, but it can be used independently from _s-global variable. But with Underscore.js you can use Object-Oriented style and chaining:
_(" epeli ").chain().trim().capitalize().value()
=> "Epeli"
npm package
npm install underscore.string
Standalone usage:
var _s = require('underscore.string');
Integrate with Underscore.js:
var _ = require('underscore');
// Import Underscore.string to separate object, because there are conflict functions (include, reverse, contains)
_.str = require('underscore.string');
// Mix in non-conflict functions to Underscore namespace if you want
_.mixin(_.str.exports());
// All functions, include conflict, will be available through _.str object
_.str.include('Underscore.string', 'string'); // => true
For availability of functions in this way you need to mix in Underscore.string functions:
_.mixin(_.string.exports());
otherwise functions from examples will be available through _.string or _.str objects:
_.str.capitalize('epeli')
=> "Epeli"
capitalize _.capitalize(string)
Converts first letter of the string to uppercase.
_.capitalize("foo Bar")
=> "Foo Bar"
chop _.chop(string, step)
_.chop('whitespace', 3)
=> ['whi','tes','pac','e']
clean _.clean(str)
Compress some whitespaces to one.
_.clean(" foo bar ")
=> 'foo bar'
chars _.chars(str)
_.chars('Hello')
=> ['H','e','l','l','o']
includes _.includes(string, substring)
Tests if string contains a substring.
_.includes("foobar", "ob")
=> true
include available only through _.str object, because Underscore has function with the same name.
_.str.include("foobar", "ob")
=> true
includes function was removed
But you can create it in this way, for compatibility with previous versions:
_.includes = _.str.include
count _.count(string, substring)
_('Hello world').count('l')
=> 3
escapeHTML _.escapeHTML(string)
Converts HTML special characters to their entity equivalents.
_('<div>Blah blah blah</div>').escapeHTML();
=> '<div>Blah blah blah</div>'
unescapeHTML _.unescapeHTML(string)
Converts entity characters to HTML equivalents.
_('<div>Blah blah blah</div>').unescapeHTML();
=> '<div>Blah blah blah</div>'
insert _.insert(string, index, substing)
_('Hello ').insert(6, 'world')
=> 'Hello world'
isBlank _.isBlank(string)
_('').isBlank(); // => true
_('\n').isBlank(); // => true
_(' ').isBlank(); // => true
_('a').isBlank(); // => false
join _.join(separator, *strings)
Joins strings together with given separator
_.join(" ", "foo", "bar")
=> "foo bar"
lines _.lines(str)
_.lines("Hello\nWorld")
=> ["Hello", "World"]
reverse available only through _.str object, because Underscore has function with the same name.
Return reversed string:
_.str.reverse("foobar")
=> 'raboof'
splice _.splice(string, index, howmany, substring)
Like a array splice.
_('https://edtsech@bitbucket.org/edtsech/underscore.strings').splice(30, 7, 'epeli')
=> 'https://edtsech@bitbucket.org/epeli/underscore.strings'
startsWith _.startsWith(string, starts)
This method checks whether string starts with starts.
_("image.gif").startsWith("image")
=> true
endsWith _.endsWith(string, ends)
This method checks whether string ends with ends.
_("image.gif").endsWith("gif")
=> true
succ _.succ(str)
Returns the successor to str.
_('a').succ()
=> 'b'
_('A').succ()
=> 'B'
supplant
Supplant function was removed, use Underscore.js template function.
strip alias for trim
lstrip alias for ltrim
rstrip alias for rtrim
titleize _.titleize(string)
_('my name is epeli').titleize()
=> 'My Name Is Epeli'
camelize _.camelize(string)
Converts underscored or dasherized string to a camelized one
_('-moz-transform').camelize()
=> 'MozTransform'
classify _.classify(string)
Converts string to camelized class name
_('some_class_name').classify()
=> 'SomeClassName'
underscored _.underscored(string)
Converts a camelized or dasherized string into an underscored one
_('MozTransform').underscored()
=> 'moz_transform'
dasherize _.dasherize(string)
Converts a underscored or camelized string into an dasherized one
_('MozTransform').dasherize()
=> '-moz-transform'
humanize _.humanize(string)
Converts an underscored, camelized, or dasherized string into a humanized one. Also removes beginning and ending whitespace, and removes the postfix '_id'.
_(' capitalize dash-CamelCase_underscore trim ').humanize()
=> 'Capitalize dash camel case underscore trim'
trim _.trim(string, [characters])
trims defined characters from begining and ending of the string. Defaults to whitespace characters.
_.trim(" foobar ")
=> "foobar"
_.trim("_-foobar-_", "_-")

ltrim _.ltrim(string, [characters])
Left trim. Similar to trim, but only for left side.
rtrim _.rtrim(string, [characters])
Right trim. Similar to trim, but only for right side.
truncate _.truncate(string, length, truncateString)
_('Hello world').truncate(5)
=> 'Hello...'
_('Hello').truncate(10)
=> 'Hello'
prune _.prune(string, length, pruneString)
Elegant version of truncate. Makes sure the pruned string does not exceed the original length. Avoid half-chopped words when truncating.
_('Hello, world').prune(5)
=> 'Hello...'
_('Hello, world').prune(8)
=> 'Hello...'
_('Hello, world').prune(5, ' (read a lot more)')
=> 'Hello, world' (as adding "(read a lot more)" would be longer than the original string)
_('Hello, cruel world').prune(15)
=> 'Hello, cruel...'
_('Hello').prune(10)
=> 'Hello'
words _.words(str, delimiter=" ")
Split string by delimiter (String or RegExp), ' ' by default.

Caution: this function is charset dependent
Any suggestions or bug reports are welcome. Just email me or more preferably open an issue.
We lose two things for include
and reverse
methods from _.string
:
_('foobar').include('bar')
aren't available;But if you need this functionality you can create aliases for conflict functions which will be convenient for you:
_.mixin({
includeString: _.str.include,
reverseString: _.str.reverse
})
// Now wrapper calls and chaining are available.
_('foobar').chain().reverseString().includeString('rab').value()
If you are using Underscore.string without Underscore. You also have _.string
namespace for it and _.str
alias
But of course you can just reassign _
variable with _.string
_ = _.string
For upgrading to this version you need to mix in Underscore.string library to Underscore object:
_.mixin(_.string.exports());
and all non-conflict Underscore.string functions will be available through Underscore object.
Also function includes
has been removed, you should replace this function by _.str.include
or create alias _.includes = _.str.include
and all your code will work fine.
Otherwise changes will be rejected.
