Simplifying text by replacing hyphens with ease
Hyphens are commonly used in strings to separate words or denote compound words. However, in certain scenarios, it's necessary to sanitize hyphens by replacing them with another character or removing them entirely. hyphen-sanitizer
provides a simple yet powerful solution for sanitizing hyphens within strings, enhancing data consistency and usability.
- Sanitizes hyphens within strings
- Allows customization of replacement string
- Defaults to space if no replacement string is provided
- Versatile and easy to integrate into existing projects
npm install hyphen-sanitizer
import hyphenSanitizer from "hyphen-sanitizer";
// Example 1 - Default replacement
// Replaces hyphens with spaces
const text = "Hello-world";
const sanitizedText = hyphenSanitizer(text);
console.log(sanitizedText); //=> "Hello world"
// Example 2 - Custom replacement
// Replaces hyphens with underscores
const replacement = "_";
const sanitizedText2 = hyphenSanitizer(text, replacement);
console.log(sanitizedText2); //=> "Hello_world"
