case-converter

What it is and what it does

case-converter is a lightweight string transformation library that converts text between standard naming conventions. It handles camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, PascalCase, MACRO_CASE, flatcase, cobolcase, and titlecase conversions. The package intelligently identifies word boundaries using configurable delimiters (default: space, hyphen, underscore) and handles edge cases like consecutive uppercase letters and punctuation.

You use it by importing a conversion function and passing a string, optionally with parameters to control punctuation stripping and custom delimiters. It has no external dependencies and installs as a pure Python wheel, making it suitable for any project needing reliable case normalization—common in API clients, configuration tools, and code generation.

Use it for:

• Normalize API request/response field names between camelCase (JavaScript) and snake_case (Python) conventions
• Generate variable or function names programmatically from user input or configuration strings
• Convert database column names or identifiers between different naming styles for compatibility
• Build code generators or templating tools that need to output identifiers in target language conventions
• Standardize configuration keys or environment variable names across systems with different naming rules

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Converts strings between different naming conventions (camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, PascalCase, MACRO_CASE, and others) with configurable delimiters and punctuation handling.

Yes. The package is stable, dependency-free, and solves a common string-handling task with no security vulnerabilities. Install it if you need case conversion; the only caveat is that updates are infrequent, so verify it handles your specific edge cases before relying on it in production.

Install

License in practice

Licensed under MIT (permissive), so you can use, modify, and distribute the package freely with minimal restrictions.

Quickstart

pip install case-converter

from caseconverter import camelcase, snakecase

camelcase("Hello, world!")  # output: helloWorld
snakecase("Hello, world!")  # output: hello_world

Verify before relying

• Whether the package supports modern Python versions (requires_python is unspecified in metadata)
• Whether updates are planned or the aging status indicates the package is in maintenance-only mode
