strings 2.0.0

Provides a set of String related aimed at extending the core String class and provide safer methods for working with nullable strings and strings in general.

The Strings package is an evolution of the work originally produced by Andrew Mezoni.

The purpose of the Strings package is to provide:

• a collection of useful String functions to complement the core String class.
• where viable, directly extend the String class with methods such as String.right, String.left...
• provide a safer environment when working with nullable Strings (String?)
• wrappers for each of the core String methods which are safe to use with a nullable String?.

A core objective of the Strings package is to never 'throw' or return an error but to make a best effort to process the passed data.

// passing null works too.
Strings.right(null, 4, pad: Pad.left);
 -> '    '

// pass a short string and we can pad it (or not).
Strings.right('one', 4, pad: Pad.left);
 -> ' one'

The Strings package also includes a number of methods exposed as extensions to the core Dart String class:

'a normal string'.right(4);
-> 'a no'
