Method Details

toTitleCase

public static String toTitleCase(String s)

Converts an action-name string to Title Case.

renderedWidth

public static int renderedWidth(String text)

escapeHtml

public static String escapeHtml(String text)

Escapes the handful of characters that are meaningful to an HTML parser. Use before placing plain text inside HTML markup, so that a stray '<'/'&' in it is displayed literally instead of being misread as markup (an unescaped '<' in particular would otherwise be parsed as the start of a tag and swallow the rest of the text)

Parameters:

text - the plain text to escape

markdownToHtml

public static String markdownToHtml(String text)

Converts a minimal, deliberately limited subset of Markdown (bold: **text** or __text__; italic: *text* or _text_) into HTML. The input is first run through escapeHtml(String), so a literal '<', '>', or '&' in text is preserved as-is rather than read as markup, and only the recognized emphasis markers are turned into <b>/<i> tags; everything else is left as plain (now HTML-safe) text.

Parameters:

text - the plain text, optionally containing basic Markdown emphasis markers

Returns:

HTML-escaped text with recognized Markdown emphasis converted to <b>/<i> tags

truncate

public static String truncate(String label,
 int maxLength)

containsNumber

public static boolean containsNumber(String text)

containsSeparator

public static boolean containsSeparator(String text)

getClipboard

public static String getClipboard()
