Methods¶

public static function camelize( string $text, mixed $delimiter = null ): string;

Converts strings to camelize style

echo Phalcon\Text::camelize("coco_bongo"); // CocoBongo
echo Phalcon\Text::camelize("co_co-bon_go", "-"); // Co_coBon_go
echo Phalcon\Text::camelize("co_co-bon_go", "_-"); // CoCoBonGo

public static function concat(): string;

Concatenates strings using the separator only once without duplication in places concatenation

$str = Phalcon\Text::concat(
    "/",
    "/tmp/",
    "/folder_1/",
    "/folder_2",
    "folder_3/"
);

// /tmp/folder_1/folder_2/folder_3/
echo $str;

public static function dynamic( string $text, string $leftDelimiter = string, string $rightDelimiter = string, string $separator = string ): string;

Generates random text in accordance with the template

// Hi my name is a Bob
echo Phalcon\Text::dynamic("{Hi|Hello}, my name is a {Bob|Mark|Jon}!");

// Hi my name is a Jon
echo Phalcon\Text::dynamic("{Hi|Hello}, my name is a {Bob|Mark|Jon}!");

// Hello my name is a Bob
echo Phalcon\Text::dynamic("{Hi|Hello}, my name is a {Bob|Mark|Jon}!");

// Hello my name is a Zyxep
echo Phalcon\Text::dynamic(
    "[Hi/Hello], my name is a [Zyxep/Mark]!",
    "[", "]",
    "/"
);

public static function endsWith( string $text, string $end, bool $ignoreCase = bool ): bool;

echo Phalcon\Text::lower("HELLO"); // hello

public static function random( int $type = int, long $length = int ): string;

Generates a random string based on the given type. Type is one of the RANDOM_* constants

use Phalcon\Text;

// "aloiwkqz"
echo Text::random(Text::RANDOM_ALNUM);

public static function reduceSlashes( string $text ): string;

Reduces multiple slashes in a string to single slashes
