Implementation

The following is the current implementation of this function.

toCamelCase =
    str:
    lib.throwIfNot (isString str) "toCamelCase does only accepts string values, but got ${typeOf str}" (
      let
        separators = splitStringBy (
          prev: curr:
          elem curr [
            "-"
            "_"
            " "
          ]
        ) false str;

        parts = lib.flatten (
          map (splitStringBy (
            prev: curr: match "[a-z]" prev != null && match "[A-Z]" curr != null
          ) true) separators
        );

        first = if length parts > 0 then toLower (head parts) else "";
        rest = if length parts > 1 then map toSentenceCase (tail parts) else [ ];
      in
      concatStrings (map (addContextFrom str) ([ first ] ++ rest))
    );
