This project is a port of the functionality from Ruby on Rails' Active Support Inflection classes into Javascript. Instead of supporting the functionality in a new Inflector object, I've chosen to extend the Javascript String object. This was ported initially to support plurality in Jester (http://thoughtbot.com/projects/jester). If anyone requires a different license in order to use this, please let me know and I can switch it over. I intend for this to be generally available for anyone's usage, and am not intentionally limiting it.

Currently supported:

String.pluralize(plural) String
renders a singular English language noun into its plural form
normal results can be overridden by passing in an alternative

String.singularize(singular) String
renders a plural English language noun into its singular form
normal results can be overridden by passing in an alterative

String.camelize(lowFirstLetter) String
renders a lower case underscored word into camel case
the first letter of the result will be upper case unless you pass true
also translates "/" into "::" (underscore does the opposite)

String.underscore() String
renders a camel cased word into words seperated by underscores
also translates "::" back into "/" (camelize does the opposite)

String.humanize(lowFirstLetter) String
renders a lower case and underscored word into human readable form
defaults to making the first letter capitalized unless you pass true

String.capitalize() String
renders all characters to lower case and then makes the first upper

String.dasherize() String
renders all underbars and spaces as dashes

String.titleize() String
renders words into title casing (as for book titles)

String.demodulize() String
renders class names that are prepended by modules into just the class

String.tableize() String
renders camel cased singular words into their underscored plural form

String.classify() String
renders an underscored plural word into its camel cased singular form

String.foreign_key(dropIdUbar) String
renders a class name (camel cased singular noun) into a foreign key
defaults to seperating the class from the id with an underbar unless
you pass true

String.ordinalize() == String
renders all numbers found in the string into their sequence like "22nd"
