Overview

Package inflect provides minimal, allocation-conscious string transformations used across the framework (snake_case, plural table names, etc.). It is intentionally small: callers may register irregulars at init time.

Functions

func Camel

func Camel(s string) string

Camel converts snake_case to camelCase.

func ForeignKey

func ForeignKey(structName string) string

ForeignKey returns the conventional foreign-key column for a struct name. e.g. "User" -> "user_id".

func Pascal

func Pascal(s string) string

Pascal converts snake_case to PascalCase.

func Pluralize

func Pluralize(word string) string

Pluralize returns the (English) plural of word.

func RegisterIrregular

func RegisterIrregular(singular, plural string)

RegisterIrregular adds or overrides an irregular plural mapping.

func Singularize

func Singularize(word string) string

Singularize returns the singular form of word (best-effort).

func Snake

func Snake(s string) string

Snake converts CamelCase or PascalCase to snake_case.

"UserID"        -> "user_id"
"HTTPRequest"   -> "http_request"
"PostCommentID" -> "post_comment_id"

func Table

func Table(structName string) string

Table returns the conventional table name for a struct name: snake_case + pluralized. e.g. "UserProfile" -> "user_profiles".
