Functions

@spec camelize(String.t()) :: String.t()

Converts String to camel case.

Takes an optional :lower option to return lowerCamelCase.

Examples

iex> ExTeal.Naming.camelize("my_app")
"MyApp"

iex> ExTeal.Naming.camelize("my_app", :lower)
"myApp"

In general, camelize can be thought of as the reverse of underscore, however, in some cases formatting may be lost:

ExTeal.Naming.underscore "SAPExample"  #=> "sap_example"
ExTeal.Naming.camelize   "sap_example" #=> "SapExample"
@spec camelize(String.t(), :lower) :: String.t()
@spec humanize(atom() | String.t()) :: String.t()

Converts an attribute/form field into its humanize version.

iex> ExTeal.Naming.humanize(:username)
"Username"
iex> ExTeal.Naming.humanize(:created_at)
"Created at"
iex> ExTeal.Naming.humanize("user_id")
"User"
