StringExtension

A comprehensive C# extension library providing a wide range of string manipulation and validation methods. Designed for .NET Standard 2.0 compatibility, this library helps you work with strings more efficiently and expressively in your C# projects.

Features

  • Null/empty/whitespace checks
  • Type conversions (int, double, decimal, DateTime, Guid, etc.)
  • String formatting and casing (title case, capitalize, etc.)
  • Validation (email, IP, URL, phone, Base64, hex, Guid, etc.)
  • Trimming, padding, and substring utilities
  • Hashing (SHA256, SHA512)
  • Slug generation
  • Palindrome, JSON, and numeric checks
  • Diacritics and special character removal
  • Base64 encode/decode
  • And many more!

Installation

Add the StringExtension project to your solution or include the StringExtensions.cs file in your project.

Usage

Add the following using directive:

using StringExtension;

You can then use the extension methods on any string:

string email = "test@example.com";
bool isValid = email.IsEmailAddress();

string slug = "Hello, World!".ToSlug();

int number = "123".ToInt();

string hash = "password".CreateHashSha256();

Target Framework

  • .NET Standard 2.0 (compatible with .NET Core, .NET Framework, Mono, Xamarin, Unity, etc.)
