Functions

func BytesToDelimitedHexStr

func BytesToDelimitedHexStr(bx []byte, delimiter string) string

BytesToDelimitedHexStr converts a byte slice to a delimited hex string.

func DedupeList

func DedupeList(list []string) []string

DedupeList returns a copy of a provided string slice with all duplicate entries removed. FIXME: Is there already a standard library version of this functionality?

func FailedMatches

func FailedMatches(expectedList []string, searchList []string, ignoreCase bool) []string

FailedMatches evaluates a list of values using list of expected values. A list of failed matches or an empty (non-nil) list is returned. If specified, a case-insensitive comparison is used.

func InList

func InList(needle string, haystack []string, ignoreCase bool) bool

InList is a helper function to emulate Python's `if "x" in list:` functionality. The caller can optionally ignore case of compared items.

func InsertDelimiter

func InsertDelimiter(s string, delimiter string, pos int) string

InsertDelimiter inserts a delimiter into the provided string every pos characters. If the length of the provided string is less than pos + 1 characters the original string is returned unmodified as we are unable to insert delimiter between blocks of characters of specified (pos) size.

func IntSliceToStringSlice

func IntSliceToStringSlice(ix []int) []string

IntSliceToStringSlice converts a slice of integers to a slice of string.

func LowerCaseStringSlice

func LowerCaseStringSlice(xs []string) []string

LowerCaseStringSlice is a helper function to convert all provided string slice elements to lowercase.

FIXME: There is likely a better way to do this already; replace with that better way.

func Matches

func Matches(expectedList []string, searchList []string, ignoreCase bool) ([]string, []string)

Matches returns a list of successful matches and a list of failed matches for the provided lists of expected and total values. If specified, a case-insensitive comparison is used.

func PrintHeader

func PrintHeader(headerText string)

PrintHeader prints a section header with liberal leading and trailing newlines to help separate otherwise potentially dense blocks of text.
