Converts a string to snake case.
|
|
|
|
- Use `re.sub()` to match all words in the string, `str.lower()` to lowercase them.
|
|
- Use `re.sub()` to replace any `-` characters with spaces.
|
|
- Finally, use `str.join()` to combine all words using `-` as the separator.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
from re import sub
|
|
|
|
def snake(s):
|
|
return '_'.join(
|
|
sub('([A-Z][a-z]+)', r' \1',
|
|
sub('([A-Z]+)', r' \1',
|
|
s.replace('-', ' '))).split()).lower()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
snake('camelCase') # 'camel_case'
|
|
snake('some text') # 'some_text'
|
|
snake('some-mixed_string With spaces_underscores-and-hyphens')
|
|
# 'some_mixed_string_with_spaces_underscores_and_hyphens'
|
|
snake('AllThe-small Things') # 'all_the_small_things'
|
|
```
