This is a new inflection engine to replace [https://github.com/markbates/inflect](https://github.com/markbates/inflect) designed to be more modular, more readable, and easier to fix issues on than the original.
## Installation
```bash
$ go get -u -v github.com/gobuffalo/flect
```
## `github.com/gobuffalo/flect`
<a href="https://godoc.org/github.com/gobuffalo/flect"><img src="https://godoc.org/github.com/gobuffalo/flect?status.svg" alt="GoDoc" /></a>
The `github.com/gobuffalo/flect` package contains "basic" inflection tools, like pluralization, singularization, etc...
### The `Ident` Type
In addition to helpful methods that take in a `string` and return a `string`, there is an `Ident` type that can be used to create new, custom, inflection rules.
The `Ident` type contains two fields.
* `Original` - This is the original `string` that was used to create the `Ident`
* `Parts` - This is a `[]string` that represents all of the "parts" of the string, that have been split apart, making the segments easier to work with
Examples of creating new inflection rules using `Ident` can be found in the `github.com/gobuffalo/flect/name` package.
## `github.com/gobuffalo/flect/name`

The `github.com/gobuffalo/flect/name` package contains more "business" inflection rules like creating proper names, table names, etc...
