Humanize string without changing case LetterCasing.NoChange #777

Open failwyn opened 5 years ago

failwyn commented 5 years ago

It would be nice to have the ability to Humanize a string without making any changes to the casing.

I'm not sure what kind of output you're expecting.

I can guess at some simple cases, for example:

SomeString => Some String
someOther string => some Other string
lower case statement => lower case statement

But what about input like this? Would it just return an unchanged string?

Our use case is that Humanizer is wrapped in a Localize utility function that will be passed database column names (i.e. CreatedOn) that should come back Title case as they are defined in the database, but it will also be passed strings that will be mixed case with spaces or underscores, and we’d like them back in the same case as they were defined.

@failwyn Could you possibly post some examples? From that we might be able to better understand what you need and then how we can help
