ToSentenceCaseTransformation class

A transformation to convert a String into sentence case.

Sentence casing ensures that only the first letter of each sentence is capitalized. By default, acronyms are excepted from conversion. However, if convertAcronyms is true, they will also be converted with the same logic.

Sentences are demarcated by a period (.), exclamation mark (!), question mark (?), colon (:), or em dash (—), but punctuation is optional for the final sentence. Words within sentences are demarcated by whitespace, which is retained in its original form after conversion to sentence casing.

final transformation = ToSentenceCaseTransformation(convertAcronyms: false);

// 'Here is some text, FYI. I hope you like it! Peace'
transformation.transform('here is some text, FYI. I hope you like it! peace', 'en_US');
