Extended string utilities with CLI

stringx

stringx is an extended string utility library for Python.
It re-exports everything from the built-in string module and adds a wide range of practical helpers for:

• Case conversion (snake_case, camelCase, PascalCase, kebab-case, Title Case)
• Slugification and safe filenames
• Character filters (only_digits, only_letters, only_alnum, etc.)
• Random string and secure token generation
• Validators (is_uuid, is_hex)
• Text cleanup (normalize_space, strip_accents)
• CLI for quick usage from the terminal

Installation

pip install stringx

Quick Examples

from stringx import random_string, slugify, to_snake, to_camel, is_uuid, safe_filename

# Generate secure random strings
print(random_string(16, "letters+digits", secure=True))

# Slugify text
print(slugify("Hello, World!"))  
# "hello-world"

# Convert cases
print(to_snake("HTTPResponseCode"))    # "http_response_code"
print(to_camel("http_response_code"))  # "httpResponseCode"

# Validate UUID
print(is_uuid("123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000"))  
# True

# Make filenames safe
print(safe_filename("Quarterly Report: Q1/2025.pdf", allow_dot=True))  
# "Quarterly_Report_Q1_2025.pdf"

CLI Usage

stringx also comes with a command-line tool:

# Generate a secure random string
stringx gen --length 20 --charset letters+digits --secure

# Slugify text
stringx slugify "Hello, World!"  
# hello-world

# Convert to snake_case
stringx case "MyExampleString" --to snake

# Keep only digits
stringx filter "a1b2c3" --only digits

# Validate UUID
stringx validate "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000" --uuid

# Normalize spaces
stringx normalize-space "foo    bar   baz"  
# "foo bar baz"

---

Advanced Examples

Slugify with Unicode

from stringx import slugify
print(slugify("Café déjà vu", allow_unicode=True))
# "café-déjà-vu"

Character n-grams

from stringx import ngrams
print(ngrams("banana", 2))
# ['ba', 'an', 'na', 'an', 'na']

Character frequency

from stringx import char_freq
print(char_freq("banana"))
# {'b': 1, 'a': 3, 'n': 2}
