utils/StringUtils.format(str, Arguments) ⇒ string

Format a string by replacing placeholder symbols with passed in arguments.

Example: var formatted = StringUtils.format("Hello {0}", "World");

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
Returns: string - Formatted string

Param	Type	Description
str	string	The base string
Arguments	rest	to be substituted into the string

utils/StringUtils.getLines(text) ⇒ Array.<string>

Splits the text by new line characters and returns an array of lines

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
Returns: Array.<string> - lines

Param	Type
text	string

utils/StringUtils.offsetToLineNum(textOrLines, offset) ⇒ number

Returns a line number corresponding to an offset in some text. The text can be specified as a single string or as an array of strings that correspond to the lines of the string.

Specify the text in lines when repeatedly calling the function on the same text in a loop. Use getLines() to divide the text into lines, then repeatedly call this function to compute a line number from the offset.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
Returns: number - line number

Param	Type	Description
textOrLines	string | Array.<string>	string or array of lines from which to compute the line number from the offset
offset	number

utils/StringUtils.startsWith(str, prefix) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the given string starts with the given prefix.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils

Param	Type
str	String
prefix	String

utils/StringUtils.endsWith(str, suffix)

Returns true if the given string ends with the given suffix.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils

Param	Type
str	string
suffix	string

utils/StringUtils.breakableUrl(url) ⇒ string

Return an escaped path or URL string that can be broken near path separators.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
Returns: string - the formatted path or URL

Param	Type	Description
url	string	the path or URL to format

utils/StringUtils.prettyPrintBytes(bytes, precision) ⇒ string

Converts number of bytes into human readable format. If param bytes is negative it returns the number without any changes.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils

Param	Type	Description
bytes	number	Number of bytes to convert
precision	number	Number of digits after the decimal separator

utils/StringUtils.truncate(str, len) ⇒ string

Truncate text to specified length.

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
Returns: string - Returns truncated text only if it was changed

Param	Type	Description
str	string	Text to be truncated.
len	number	Length to which text should be truncated

utils/StringUtils.hashCode(str) ⇒ number

Computes a 32bit hash from the given string Taken from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7616461/generate-a-hash-from-string-in-javascript-jquery

Kind: inner method of utils/StringUtils
