Souvlaki is a simple utility for generating memorable names from strings of adjectives and nouns.
A souvlaki spec (recipe?) is a string of ADJ and NOUN tokens separated by DELIMITERs and optionally preceded by a positive INTEGER.
An ADJ token is one of the following:
adj,Adj,$Adj,ADJ
A NOUN token is one of the following:
noun,Noun,$Noun,NOUN
A DELIMITER is one of the following:
-,_,.,+,/,:,&
Souvlaki will replace adjective and noun tokens with adjectives and nouns, respectively. The capitalization style of the token (lower, Title, UPPER) will be copied. If the token uses the $Title style, souvlaki will ensure the first letter is capitalized but will not modify the rest of the word - so taco becomes Taco, but ICBM remains ICBM.
The special delimiter & indicates that words should be directly concatenated (so adj&adj might yield angryred).
See examples/example.py for an example.
Names are often generated in the format adj-adj-noun (like sintered-ductile-diode), which is typically called "kebab case" since it looks like a kebab. kebab was already taken on PyPI, and souvlaki was the next best thing.
