pycasestyle

pycasestyle is a Python library for converting variable naming styles between CamelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, and PascalCase.

Supported styles:

• CamelCase
• SnakeCase
• KebabCase
• PascalCase

Installation

To install pycasestyle, you can use pip:

Usage

You can import the text formatting styles directly from the pycasestyle module and use them in your code. Here's an example of how to use the text formatting styles:

# Converting to camelcase from text
camelcased_text = pycasestyle.camelcase.from_string("i want a camel")
print(camelcased_text)  # Output: "iWantACamel"

# Converting to camelcase from dict
camelcased_dict = pycasestyle.camelcase.from_dict({"i want a camel": "value"})
print(camelcased_dict)  # Output: {"iWantACamel": "value"}

# Converting to snakecase from text
snakecased_text = pycasestyle.snakecase.from_string("I Want A Snake")
print(snakecased_text)  # Output: "i_want_a_snake"

# Converting to snakecase from dict
snakecased_dict = pycasestyle.snakecase.from_dict({"I Want A Snake": "value"})
print(snakecased_dict)  # Output: {"i_want_a_snake": "value"}

# Converting to kebab-case
kebabcased_text = pycasestyle.kebabcase.from_string("I Want A Kebab")
print(kebabcased_text)  # Output: "i-want-a-kebab"

# Converting to kebab-case from dict
kebabcased_dict = pycasestyle.kebabcase.from_dict({"I Want A Kebab": "value"})
print(kebabcased_dict)  # Output: {"i-want-a-kebab": "value"}

# Converting to PascalCase from text
pascalcased_text = pycasestyle.pascalcase.from_string("i want a pascal")
print(pascalcased_text)  # Output: "IWantAPascal"

# Converting to PascalCase from dict
pascalcased_dict = pycasestyle.pascalcase.from_dict({"i want a pascal": "value"})
print(pascalcased_dict)  # Output: {"IWantAPascal": "value"}

Use cases

If you needed convert schemas, mappings, contracts, etc. This tool is specific to turn easily your job.

Real use case:

You need to migrate information from Postgres to Elasticsearch, however, the mapping used in Elastic is following the camelcase pattern, whereas in Postgres it is with the Snakecase pattern, see how simple it is to solve:

postgres_contract = {
    "id": 1,
    "customers_id": 32,
    "users_id": 56,
    "period_datetime": "2024-08-10"
}

elastic_contract = pycasestyle.camelcase.from_dict(postgres_contract)
print(elastic_contract) # Output: {
    "id": 1,
    "customersId": 32,
    "usersId": 56,
    "periodDatetime": "2024-08-10"
}
