Extra helper methods for the Laravel Str helper class.

Additional Methods

• insert() - inserts a string at the specified position in the given string.
• insertAfterMatch() - inserts a string after the specified pattern match.
• insertAfter() - inserts a string after the specified substring.

Examples

$new = Str::insert('HelloWorld', '--', 5); //returns 'Hello--World'
$new = Str::insertAfterMatch('HelloWorld', '/(Hello)/', ' '); // returns 'Hello World'
$new = Str::insertAfter('HelloWorld', 'H', '_'); // returns 'H_elloWorld'

As far as making building web applications easier - consider the following use case:

// the identifier in the database is UA-1001, but we want to
// allow the user to provide the identifier without a dash for ease of entry:

$providedIdentifier = 'UA1001';
$actualIdentifier = Str::insertAfter($providedIdentifier, 'UA', '-'); 
$userExists = User::where('identifier', $actualIdentifier)->exists();

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require permafrost-dev/laravel-str-extras

Usage

$new = Str::insert('HelloWorld', '--', 5); //returns 'Hello--World'

Testing

composer test
