Convert camelCaseText to Sentence Case Text

Question

How can I convert a string either like \'helloThere\' or \'HelloThere\' to \'Hello There\' in JavaScript?

Answer 1

I had a similar problem and dealt with it like this:

stringValue.replace(/([A-Z]+)*([A-Z][a-z])/g, "$1 $2")

For a more robust solution:

stringValue.replace(/([A-Z]+)/g, " $1").replace(/([A-Z][a-z])/g, " $1")

Input:

 helloThere 
 HelloThere 
 ILoveTheUSA
 iLoveTheUSA

Output:

 hello There 
 Hello There 
 I Love The USA
 i Love The USA
