namify

Convert a npm package name into a safe-to-use variable name. Use as a mixin in Yeoman generators.

Install

Install with npm:

npm i namify --save-dev

Install with bower

npm i namify --save-dev

Usage

var namify = require('namify');
console.log(namify('foo-bar-bar'));
//=> fooBarBaz

If the resulting variable name matches an ECMAscript reserved word, an underscore will be prepended to the variable name.

Yeoman generators

Use as a mixin in Yeoman generators:

// in the contructor
this._.mixin(namify);

// in templates you can now do something like:
var <%= _.namify(appName) %> = require('<%= appname %>');
//=> var fooBarBaz = require('foo-bar-baz');
