# STC [cstr](../include/stc/cstr.h): String
A **cstr** object represent sequences of characters. It supports an interface similar to that of a standard container of bytes, but adding features specifically designed to operate with strings of single-byte characters, terminated by the null character.
See the c++ class [std::basic_string](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string) for a functional description.
## Header file
All cstr definitions and prototypes are available by including a single header file.
```c
#include <stc/cstr.h>
```
## Methods
```c
cstr cstr_init(void); // constructor; same as cstr_null.
cstr cstr_new(const char literal_only[]); // cstr from literal; no strlen() call.
cstr cstr_from(const char* str); // constructor using strlen()
cstr cstr_from_n(const char* str, size_t n); // constructor with specified length
cstr cstr_with_capacity(size_t cap);
cstr cstr_with_size(size_t len, char fill); // repeat fill len times
cstr cstr_from_fmt(const char* fmt, ...); // printf() formatting
cstr cstr_clone(cstr s);
cstr* cstr_take(cstr* self, cstr s); // take the constructed or moved string
cstr cstr_move(cstr* self); // move string to caller, leave empty string
void cstr_drop(cstr *self); // destructor
const char* cstr_str(const cstr* self); // access to const char*
char* cstr_data(cstr* self); // access to char*
csview cstr_sv(const cstr* self); // access to string view
cstr_buf cstr_buffer(cstr* self); // access to mutable buffer (with capacity)
size_t cstr_size(cstr s);
size_t cstr_length(cstr s);
size_t cstr_capacity(cstr s);
bool cstr_empty(cstr s);
// utf8:
size_t cstr_size_u8(cstr s); // utf8 size
size_t cstr_size_n_u8(cstr s, size_t nbytes); // utf8 size within n bytes
csview cstr_at(const cstr* self, size_t bytepos); // utf8 character as a csview
csview cstr_at_u8(const cstr* self, size_t u8idx); // utf8 character at utf8 pos
size_t cstr_pos_u8(const cstr* self, size_t u8idx); // byte position at utf8 index
bool cstr_valid_u8(const cstr* self); // check if str is valid utf8
utf8_decode_t cstr_peek(const cstr* self, size_t bytepos);
size_t cstr_reserve(cstr* self, size_t capacity);
void cstr_resize(cstr* self, size_t len, char fill);
void cstr_shrink_to_fit(cstr* self);
char* cstr_expand_uninit(cstr* self, size_t n); // return ptr to uninit data
void cstr_clear(cstr* self);
char* cstr_assign(cstr* self, const char* str);
char* cstr_assign_s(cstr* self, cstr s);
char* cstr_assign_n(cstr* self, const char* str, size_t n); // assign n first chars of str
void cstr_copy(cstr* self, cstr s); // like cstr_assign_s()
int cstr_printf(cstr* self, const char* fmt, ...); // printf() formatting
char* cstr_append(cstr* self, const char* str);
char* cstr_append_s(cstr* self, cstr s);
char* cstr_append_n(cstr* self, const char* str, size_t n);
void cstr_insert(cstr* self, size_t pos, const char* str);
void cstr_insert_s(cstr* self, size_t pos, cstr s);
void cstr_insert_n(cstr* self, size_t pos, const char* str, size_t n);
void cstr_replace(cstr* self, size_t pos, size_t len, const char* repl);
void cstr_replace_s(cstr* self, size_t pos, size_t len, cstr s);
void cstr_replace_n(cstr* self, size_t pos, size_t len, const char* repl, size_t n);
size_t cstr_replace_first(cstr* self, size_t pos, const char* search, const char* repl);
void cstr_replace_all(cstr* self, const char* search, const char* repl);
void cstr_erase(cstr* self, size_t pos);
void cstr_erase_n(cstr* self, size_t pos, size_t n);
bool cstr_equals(cstr s, const char* str);
bool cstr_equals_s(cstr s, cstr s2);
size_t cstr_find(cstr s, const char* search);
size_t cstr_find_from(cstr s, size_t pos, const char* search);
bool cstr_contains(cstr s, const char* search);
bool cstr_starts_with(cstr s, const char* str);
bool cstr_ends_with(cstr s, const char* str);
void cstr_push_back(cstr* self, char ch);
void cstr_pop_back(cstr* self);
char* cstr_front(cstr* self);
char* cstr_back(cstr* self);
bool cstr_getline(cstr *self, FILE *stream); // cstr_getdelim(self, '\n', stream)
bool cstr_getdelim(cstr *self, int delim, FILE *stream); // does not append delim to result
```
Note that all methods with arguments `(..., const char* str, size_t n)`, `n` must be within the range of `str` length.
#### Helper methods:
```c
int cstr_cmp(const cstr *s1, const cstr *s2);
bool cstr_eq(const cstr *s1, const cstr *s2);
bool cstr_hash(const cstr *s);
char* c_strnstrn(const char* str, const char* search, size_t slen, size_t nlen);
int c_strncasecmp(const char* str1, const char* str2, size_t n);
```
## Types
| Type name | Type definition | Used to represent... |
|:----------------|:-------------------------------------------|:---------------------|
| `cstr` | `struct { ... }` | The string type |
| `cstr_value` | `char` | String element type |
| `csview` | `struct { const char *str; size_t size; }` | String view type |
| `cstr_buf` | `struct { char *data; size_t size, cap; }` | String buffer type |
## Constants and macros
| Name | Value |
|:------------------|:------------------|
| `cstr_npos` | `INTPTR_MAX` |
| `cstr_null` | cstr null value |
## Example
```c
#include <stc/cstr.h>
int main() {
cstr s0 = cstr_new("Initialization without using strlen().");
printf("%s\nLength: %" PRIuMAX "\n\n", cstr_str(&s0), cstr_size(s0));
cstr s1 = cstr_new("one-nine-three-seven-five.");
printf("%s\n", cstr_str(&s1));
cstr_insert(&s1, 3, "-two");
printf("%s\n", cstr_str(&s1));
cstr_erase_n(&s1, 7, 5); // -nine
printf("%s\n", cstr_str(&s1));
cstr_replace(&s1, cstr_find(s1, "seven"), 5, "four");
printf("%s\n", cstr_str(&s1));
// reassign:
cstr_assign(&s1, "one two three four five six seven");
cstr_append(&s1, " eight");
printf("append: %s\n", cstr_str(&s1));
cstr full_path = cstr_from_fmt("%s/%s.%s", "directory", "filename", "ext");
printf("%s\n", cstr_str(&full_path));
c_drop(cstr, &s0, &s1, &full_path);
}
```
Output:
```
one-nine-three-seven-five.
one-two-nine-three-seven-five.
one-two-three-seven-five.
one-two-three-four-five.
append: one two three four five six seven eight
directory/filename.ext
```
