| jQuery.extend (String.prototype, { | |
| camelize: function () { | |
| return this.replace (/(?:^|[-_])(\w)/g, function (_, c) { | |
| return c ? c.toUpperCase () : ''; | |
| }) | |
| } | |
| }); | 
thanks!
vanilla version:
String.prototype.camelize = function () {
return this.replace (/(?:^|[-])(\w)/g, function (, c) {
return c ? c.toUpperCase () : '';
});
}
@knutole: modifying the prototype of a built-in type is considered bad practice in JavaScript...
Thanks!
@mishrud get over it
👍 thanks
More ES6ish:
const camelCase = (string) => {
/*

 * at http://stackoverflow.com/a/2970588/6776673
 */
  return string
    .replace(/\s(.)/g, $1 => $1.toUpperCase())
    .replace(/\s/g, '')
    .replace(/^(.)/, $1 => $1.toLowerCase())
}
