## Configuration

> [`package:change_case`] has a configuration file, [`ChangeCaseConfig`], that you can use to update `splitPatterns`, `stripPatterns`, and the `placeholder` which will be applied to most
function listed above.

__I don't suggest changing these unless you know what you are doing 😁__

## Patterns

Change case uses `RegExp` to split & replace characters of the string.
While they are great at what they do, you may want to update or add new patterns.

These patterns can be updated by using the [`ChangeCaseConfig`]`.setUp(splitPatterns: [...], stripPatterns: [...])`

The default patterns are:

> _Note_: `(?:•)*` is used to match any "`•`" ([`placeholder`](#placeholder)) character.

- Split
  - `ChangeCaseConfig.lowerOrNumToUpperPattern`

    ```dart
    // matches lowercase or numeric char to uppercase char
    RegExp('([a-z0-9])(?:•)*([A-Z])')
    ```

  - `ChangeCaseConfig.lowerOrNumToUpperPattern`

    ```dart
    // matches uppercase char to uppercase followed by lowercase char
    RegExp('([A-Z])(?:•)*([A-Z][a-z])')
    ```

- Strip
  - `ChangeCaseConfig.upperToLowerPattern`

    ```dart
    // matches any non-alphanumeric char
    RegExp('[^A-Z0-9]+', caseSensitive: false)
    ```

  - `ChangeCaseConfig.lowerToNumOrUpperPattern` (Not included in default, but can be used to add or replace)

    ```dart
    // matches lowercase char to numeric or uppercase char
    // changes the behavior to `word2019 -> word 2019` and `minifyURLs -> minify urls`
    RegExp('([a-z])([A-Z0-9])')
    ```

---

## Placeholder

> can be configured with [`ChangeCaseConfig`]`.setUp(placeholder: ...)`

The `placeholder` is a string that is added and used as a reference to configure each case.

The default placeholder is "`•`"

For example:

```dart
final string = 'test stringCase';
print(string.toCamelCase()); // expected: 'testStringCase'

// runs splitPatterns, returns "test string•Case"
// runs stripPatterns, returns "test•string•Case"
// runs camel case logic, returns "testStringCase"
```

This string needs to be a unique character that is not used in the string.
