# StringPlus

Some stuff I like on `String`s.

## Methods added

### `#camelcase`

Convert a space/underscore-separated String into camel case.

```ruby
  require "string_plus"
  
  "hello_cool_world".camelcase
  # => "HelloCoolWorld"
```

### `#lcamelcase`

Convert a space/underscore-separated String into lower camel case.

```ruby
  require "string_plus"
  
  "hello_cool_world".lcamelcase
  # => "helloCoolWorld"
```


### `#constantize`

Convert a string into a constant.

Acknowledgments:

* The `String` will be first camel-cased.
* You're not creating a Constant, but retrieving it. So, if it doesn't already exist, it will raise an error.

```ruby
  require "string_plus"
  
  "basic_object".constantize
  # => BasicObject
```

It also accepts nested constants, separated by `-`

```ruby
  require "string_plus"
  
  module ExternalModule
    class InternalClass
      class InceptionedClass
        class DreamInsideADreamInsideADream; end
      end
    end
  end
  
  "external_module-internal_class-inceptioned_class-dream_inside_a_dream_inside_a_dream".constantize
  # => ExternalModule::InternalClass::InceptionedClass::DreamInsideADreamInsideADream
```

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'string_plus'
```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install string_plus

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release` to create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
