JavaScript inflection

As the lead (and lone) developer of an early Rails competitor, I am not particularly fond on DHH & Co. However, there is no denying that good ideas did emerge in the Rails ecosystem. One such idea is the use of inflection to replace configuration with convention.

Some time ago, I needed a simple code generator for one of my projects, thus I looked around for a JavaScript inflection library. After experimenting with a couple of ports of old ActiveSupport code, I decided to implement a subset of the latest ActiveSupport version and package it for CommonJS.

Download the JavaScript inflection library, and try some examples:

var pluralize = require("inflection").pluralize
pluralize("entry"); //  "entries"


var singularize = require("inflection").singularize
singularize("words"); // "word"

Neat. Love the test as well.

What are you stating, man? I realize everyones got their own view, but really? Listen, your web site is neat. I like the energy you put into it, especially with the vids and the pics. But, come on. Theres gotta be a better way to say this, a way that doesnt make it seem like everyone here is stupid!
