README

Pluralizer is a pluralize/singularize library, extracted from Propel Orm codebase.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require cristianoc72/pluralizer

Usage

The library exposes two methods: getPluralForm, which transforms a word from singular to plural, and getSinguarForm doing the opposite.

$pluralizer = new cristianoc72\Pluralizer();

$plural = $pluralizer->getPluralForm('Author');
echo $plural; // Authors

$singular = $pluralizer->getSingularForm('Books');
echo $singular; // Book

The library can transform the most common irregular words:

$pluralizer = new cristianoc72\Pluralizer();

$plural = $pluralizer->getPluralForm('tooth');
echo $plural; // teeth

Besides, the library exposes two checker method isPlural and isSingular:

$pluralizer = new cristianoc72\Pluralizer();

var_dump($pluralizer->isPlural('Author'); // (bool) false

var_dump($pluralizer->isPlural('Books'));  // (bool) true

Testing

$ vendor/bin/phpunit
