how to use the startcase function from lodash in javascript

To use the startcase function from lodash in JavaScript, first we need to install lodash using npm (Node Package Manager) by running the following command in our terminal:

index.tsx
npm install lodash
19 chars
2 lines

Then, we can import and use the startCase function from lodash as follows:

index.tsx
const _ = require('lodash');

const myString = 'hello world';
const myStartCaseString = _.startCase(myString);

console.log(myStartCaseString); // Output: Hello World
167 chars
7 lines

In the above code snippet, we first import lodash using the require() method. Then, we define a sample string myString and pass it as a parameter to the startCase function from lodash. This function converts our string to start case format (i.e., capitalizes the first letter of each word and sets the remaining letters to lowercase) and returns the result, which we store in the myStartCaseString variable. Finally, we log this variable to the console.

Note that the startCase function works only with strings. If we pass any other data type, an error will be thrown.
