Strings

Everyday string shaping — slugs, truncation, casing, padding, pluralisation. Every function returns a new string and leaves its input alone; truncate counts its ellipsis inside the requested length rather than adding to it. slugify strips diacritics and then keeps only a-z0-9 and hyphens, which makes it URL-safe by construction but also means non-Latin scripts slug to an empty string — transliterate first if you need to support them.

import { slugify, truncate, capitalize, pluralize } from '@rtorcato/js-common/strings'

slugify('Hello World!')             // "hello-world"
truncate('Lorem ipsum dolor', 10)   // "Lorem ips…"
capitalize('hello world')           // "Hello world"
pluralize('item', 5)                // "items"
