eufony/inflector provides a standardized interface for linguistic inflection libraries.
eufony/inflector is a PHP library that aims to improve interoperability between linguistic inflection implementations. It provides a common interface for changing the capitalization of strings, as well as the pluralization and singularization of words.
Interested? Here's how to get started.
eufony/inflector is released as a Packagist package and can be easily installed via Composer with:
composer require "eufony/inflector"
eufony/inflector provides InflectorInterface, which defines the following methods:
// Convert between `PascalCase`, `snake_case`, and `camelCase`.
echo $inflector->toPascalCase($string);
echo $inflector->toSnakeCase($string);
echo $inflector->toCamelCase($string);
// Convert between pluralized and singularized words.
echo $inflector->pluralize($string);
echo $inflector->singularize($string);It also provides a couple of pseudo-implementations to get you started:
// A fake implementation based on the Null Object Pattern
// that returns any string it is given without any modifications.
$inflector = new NullInflector();
// A wrapper class to manually define exceptions to the return values of another implementation.
$inflector = new ExceptionAdapter($inflector, cases: [["id", "id", "ID"]], words: ["moose", "meese"]);
// A wrapper class around the inflector implementation by the Doctrine project.
$inflector = new DoctrineInflector();Found a bug or a missing feature? You can report it over at the issue tracker.
