snakeCase (Lodash compatibility)

Use snakeCase from es-toolkit

This snakeCase function operates slowly due to normalization logic for handling null or undefined.

Instead, use the faster and more modern snakeCase from es-toolkit.

Converts a string to snake case.

const snakeCased = snakeCase(str);

Reference

snakeCase(str)

Use snakeCase when you want to convert a string to snakecase. Snake case is a naming convention where each word is written in lowercase and connected with underscores ().

import { snakeCase } from 'es-toolkit/compat';

// Convert camel case
snakeCase('camelCase');
// Returns: 'camel_case'

// Convert space-separated string
snakeCase('some whitespace');
// Returns: 'some_whitespace'

// Convert hyphen-separated string
snakeCase('hyphen-text');
// Returns: 'hyphen_text'

// Handle consecutive uppercase letters
snakeCase('HTTPRequest');
// Returns: 'http_request'

null or undefined are treated as empty strings.

import { snakeCase } from 'es-toolkit/compat';

snakeCase(null); // ''
snakeCase(undefined); // ''

(string): Returns the converted string in snake case.
