MynaBird converts email addresses into "account names" suitable for use in a
host name.
We use this here at Wistia. A user can sign up for an account using just
their email address, and in typical trendy SaaS fashion, they get an account
URL in the form of http://account-name.wistia.com. MynaBird performs the
conversion of their email into their new account name.
It works like this: if the domain is a that of a known ISP or email provider
(like Comcast or Gmail), then MynaBird uses the local part of their address as
the name. Otherwise, MynaBird builds the account name from the domain.
For example:
brendan@wistia.com -> wistia
brendan.schwartz@gmail.com -> brendan-schwartz
brendan+nospam@gmail.com -> brendan
support@gmail.com -> support-at-gmail
Ok, that last one is a bit of a special case, but you get the idea.
Usage:
require 'myna_bird'
MynaBird.convert('brendan@wistia.com') #=> 'wistia'
Specs:
Just run "rake spec" to run the specs.
Don't be shy, feel free to add more examples.
