Converts a string to camelcase.
|
|
|
|
Break the string into words and combine them capitalizing the first letter of each word, using a regexp, `title()` and `lower`.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
import re
|
|
|
|
def camel(s):
|
|
s = re.sub(r"(\s|_|-)+", " ", s).title().replace(" ", "")
|
|
return s[0].lower() + s[1:]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
camel('some_database_field_name'); # 'someDatabaseFieldName'
|
|
camel('Some label that needs to be camelized'); # 'someLabelThatNeedsToBeCamelized'
|
|
camel('some-javascript-property'); # 'someJavascriptProperty'
|
|
camel('some-mixed_string with spaces_underscores-and-hyphens'); # 'someMixedStringWithSpacesUnderscoresAndHyphens'
|
|
```
