Strings

The Strings package is an evolution of the work originally produced by Andrew Mezoni.

The purpose of the Strings package is to provide:

• a collection of useful String functions to complement the core String class.
• where viable, directly extend the String class with methods such as String.right, String.left...
• provide a safer environment when working with nullable Strings (String?)
• wrappers for each of the core String methods which are safe to use with a nullable String?.

A core objective of the Strings package is to never 'throw' or return an error but to make a best effort to process the passed data.

// passing null works too.
Strings.right(null, 4, pad: Pad.left);
 -> '    '

// pass a short string and we can pad it (or not).
Strings.right('one', 4, pad: Pad.left);
 -> ' one'

The Strings package also includes a number of methods exposed as extensions to the core Dart String class:

'a normal string'.right(4);
-> 'a no'
