Package strings implements simple functions to manipulate UTF-8 encoded strings.
For information about UTF-8 strings in Go, see https://blog.golang.org/strings.
Static methods
staticinlineclone(_s:GoString):GoString
Clone returns a fresh copy of s. It guarantees to make a copy of s into a new allocation, which can be important when retaining only a small substring of a much larger string. Using Clone can help such programs use less memory. Of course, since using Clone makes a copy, overuse of Clone can make programs use more memory. Clone should typically be used only rarely, and only when profiling indicates that it is needed. For strings of length zero the string "" will be returned and no allocation is made.
staticinlinecompare(_a:GoString, _b:GoString):GoInt
Compare returns an integer comparing two strings lexicographically. The result will be 0 if a == b, -1 if a < b, and +1 if a > b.
Compare is included only for symmetry with package bytes. It is usually clearer and always faster to use the built-in string comparison operators ==, <, >, and so on.
staticinlinecontains(_s:GoString, _substr:GoString):Bool
Contains reports whether substr is within s.
staticinlinecontainsAny(_s:GoString, _chars:GoString):Bool
ContainsAny reports whether any Unicode code points in chars are within s.
staticinlinecontainsFunc(_s:GoString, _f:GoInt32 ‑> Bool):Bool
ContainsFunc reports whether any Unicode code points r within s satisfy f(r).
staticinlinecontainsRune(_s:GoString, _r:GoInt32):Bool
ContainsRune reports whether the Unicode code point r is within s.
staticinlinecount(_s:GoString, _substr:GoString):GoInt
Count counts the number of non-overlapping instances of substr in s. If substr is an empty string, Count returns 1 + the number of Unicode code points in s.
staticinlinecut(_s:GoString, _sep:GoString):{_2:Bool, _1:GoString, _0:GoString}
Cut slices s around the first instance of sep, returning the text before and after sep. The found result reports whether sep appears in s. If sep does not appear in s, cut returns s, "", false.
staticinlinecutPrefix(_s:GoString, _prefix:GoString):{_1:Bool, _0:GoString}
CutPrefix returns s without the provided leading prefix string and reports whether it found the prefix. If s doesn't start with prefix, CutPrefix returns s, false. If prefix is the empty string, CutPrefix returns s, true.
staticinlinecutSuffix(_s:GoString, _suffix:GoString):{_1:Bool, _0:GoString}
CutSuffix returns s without the provided ending suffix string and reports whether it found the suffix. If s doesn't end with suffix, CutSuffix returns s, false. If suffix is the empty string, CutSuffix returns s, true.
staticinlineequalFold(_s:GoString, _t:GoString):Bool
EqualFold reports whether s and t, interpreted as UTF-8 strings, are equal under simple Unicode case-folding, which is a more general form of case-insensitivity.
staticinlinefields(_s:GoString):Slice<GoString>
Fields splits the string s around each instance of one or more consecutive white space characters, as defined by unicode.IsSpace, returning a slice of substrings of s or an empty slice if s contains only white space.
staticinlinefieldsFunc(_s:GoString, _f:GoInt32 ‑> Bool):Slice<GoString>
FieldsFunc splits the string s at each run of Unicode code points c satisfying f(c) and returns an array of slices of s. If all code points in s satisfy f(c) or the string is empty, an empty slice is returned.
FieldsFunc makes no guarantees about the order in which it calls f(c) and assumes that f always returns the same value for a given c.
staticinlinehasPrefix(_s:GoString, _prefix:GoString):Bool
HasPrefix tests whether the string s begins with prefix.
staticinlinehasSuffix(_s:GoString, _suffix:GoString):Bool
HasSuffix tests whether the string s ends with suffix.
staticinlineindex(_s:GoString, _substr:GoString):GoInt
Index returns the index of the first instance of substr in s, or -1 if substr is not present in s.
staticinlineindexAny(_s:GoString, _chars:GoString):GoInt
IndexAny returns the index of the first instance of any Unicode code point from chars in s, or -1 if no Unicode code point from chars is present in s.
staticinlineindexByte(_s:GoString, _c:GoUInt8):GoInt
IndexByte returns the index of the first instance of c in s, or -1 if c is not present in s.
staticinlineindexFunc(_s:GoString, _f:GoInt32 ‑> Bool):GoInt
IndexFunc returns the index into s of the first Unicode code point satisfying f(c), or -1 if none do.
staticinlineindexRune(_s:GoString, _r:GoInt32):GoInt
IndexRune returns the index of the first instance of the Unicode code point r, or -1 if rune is not present in s. If r is utf8.RuneError, it returns the first instance of any invalid UTF-8 byte sequence.
staticinlinejoin(_elems:Slice<GoString>, _sep:GoString):GoString
Join concatenates the elements of its first argument to create a single string. The separator string sep is placed between elements in the resulting string.
staticinlinelastIndex(_s:GoString, _substr:GoString):GoInt
LastIndex returns the index of the last instance of substr in s, or -1 if substr is not present in s.
staticinlinelastIndexAny(_s:GoString, _chars:GoString):GoInt
LastIndexAny returns the index of the last instance of any Unicode code point from chars in s, or -1 if no Unicode code point from chars is present in s.
staticinlinelastIndexByte(_s:GoString, _c:GoUInt8):GoInt
LastIndexByte returns the index of the last instance of c in s, or -1 if c is not present in s.
staticinlinelastIndexFunc(_s:GoString, _f:GoInt32 ‑> Bool):GoInt
LastIndexFunc returns the index into s of the last Unicode code point satisfying f(c), or -1 if none do.
staticinlinemap_(_mapping:GoInt32 ‑> GoInt32, _s:GoString):GoString
Map returns a copy of the string s with all its characters modified according to the mapping function. If mapping returns a negative value, the character is dropped from the string with no replacement.
staticinlinenewReader(_s:GoString):Ref<Reader>
NewReader returns a new Reader reading from s. It is similar to bytes.NewBufferString but more efficient and non-writable.
staticinlinenewReplacer(_oldnew:Rest<GoString>):Ref<Replacer>
NewReplacer returns a new Replacer from a list of old, new string pairs. Replacements are performed in the order they appear in the target string, without overlapping matches. The old string comparisons are done in argument order.
NewReplacer panics if given an odd number of arguments.
staticinlinerepeat(_s:GoString, _count:GoInt):GoString
Repeat returns a new string consisting of count copies of the string s.
It panics if count is negative or if the result of (len(s) * count) overflows.
staticinlinereplace(_s:GoString, _old:GoString, _new_:GoString, _n:GoInt):GoString
Replace returns a copy of the string s with the first n non-overlapping instances of old replaced by new. If old is empty, it matches at the beginning of the string and after each UTF-8 sequence, yielding up to k+1 replacements for a k-rune string. If n < 0, there is no limit on the number of replacements.
staticinlinereplaceAll(_s:GoString, _old:GoString, _new_:GoString):GoString
ReplaceAll returns a copy of the string s with all non-overlapping instances of old replaced by new. If old is empty, it matches at the beginning of the string and after each UTF-8 sequence, yielding up to k+1 replacements for a k-rune string.
staticinlinesplit(_s:GoString, _sep:GoString):Slice<GoString>
Split slices s into all substrings separated by sep and returns a slice of the substrings between those separators.
If s does not contain sep and sep is not empty, Split returns a slice of length 1 whose only element is s.
If sep is empty, Split splits after each UTF-8 sequence. If both s and sep are empty, Split returns an empty slice.
It is equivalent to SplitN with a count of -1.
To split around the first instance of a separator, see Cut.
staticinlinesplitAfter(_s:GoString, _sep:GoString):Slice<GoString>
SplitAfter slices s into all substrings after each instance of sep and returns a slice of those substrings.
If s does not contain sep and sep is not empty, SplitAfter returns a slice of length 1 whose only element is s.
If sep is empty, SplitAfter splits after each UTF-8 sequence. If both s and sep are empty, SplitAfter returns an empty slice.
It is equivalent to SplitAfterN with a count of -1.
staticinlinesplitAfterN(_s:GoString, _sep:GoString, _n:GoInt):Slice<GoString>
SplitAfterN slices s into substrings after each instance of sep and returns a slice of those substrings.
The count determines the number of substrings to return:
n > 0: at most n substrings; the last substring will be the unsplit remainder.
n == 0: the result is nil (zero substrings)
n < 0: all substrings
Edge cases for s and sep (for example, empty strings) are handled as described in the documentation for SplitAfter.
staticinlinesplitN(_s:GoString, _sep:GoString, _n:GoInt):Slice<GoString>
SplitN slices s into substrings separated by sep and returns a slice of the substrings between those separators.
The count determines the number of substrings to return:
n > 0: at most n substrings; the last substring will be the unsplit remainder.
n == 0: the result is nil (zero substrings)
n < 0: all substrings
Edge cases for s and sep (for example, empty strings) are handled as described in the documentation for Split.
To split around the first instance of a separator, see Cut.
staticinlinetitle(_s:GoString):GoString
Title returns a copy of the string s with all Unicode letters that begin words mapped to their Unicode title case.
