ezpkg.io/stringz

Collection of packages and tools to make writing Go code easier.

Introduction

As I work on various Go projects, I often find myself creating utility functions, extending existing packages, or developing packages to solve specific problems. Moving from one project to another, I usually have to copy or rewrite these solutions. So I created this repository to have all these utilities and packages in one place. Hopefully, you'll find them useful as well.

These packages aim to enhance the functionality of the standard library and other popular packages. They are intended to be used together with other packages rather than replacing them. The APIs are designed based on my experience working with Go, focusing on simplicity and ease of use. I will try to follow best practices in Go, but not always. I also tend to choose a more performance implementation if possible.

Package stringz extends the standard library strings with additional functions.

Examples

stringz.Builder

The stdlib strings.Builder provides many functions that always return nil error. They have their counterparts in stringz.Builder that eliminate the need of error handling.

// stdlib: strings.Builder
_, err = b.WriteString()
if err != nil {
    return err
}
_, err = fmt.Fprintf(&b, "Hello, %s!", "world")
if err != nil {
    return err
}

// ezpkg.io/stringz.Builder
b.WriteStringZ()
b.Printf("Hello, %s!", "world")
