Variables

var GlobalTransliterations = map[rune]string{
	'‘': "'", '’': "'",
}

GlobalTransliterations are applied not only to scientific names, but to the whole name-string.

var Transliterations = map[rune]string{

	'Ë': "E", 'É': "E", 'È': "E", 'Í': "I", 'Ì': "I", 'Ï': "I", 'Ł': "L",

Transliteration table is used to convert diacritical characters to their latin letter equivalents.

Functions

func CapitalizeName

func CapitalizeName(name string) string

CapitalizeName function capitalizes the first character of a name-string. It can be a useful option if the data is known to contain 'real' names, for example canonical forms, but they are provided with all letters in lower case.

func FixAllCaps

func FixAllCaps(s string) string

FixAllCaps converts all-caps authors names to capitalized version.

func IsBoldSurrogate

func IsBoldSurrogate(s string) bool

func JoinStrings

func JoinStrings(s1 string, s2 string, sep string) string

JoinStrings contatenates two strings with a separator. If either of the strings is empty, then the value of another string is returned instead of concatenation.

func NumToStr

func NumToStr(num string) string

NumToString converts numbers in old-style species names to their word equivalents.

func ToASCII

func ToASCII(b []byte, m map[rune]string) ([]byte, error)

ToASCII converts a UTF-8 diacritics to corresponding ASCII chars.
