Dolittle kindly translates your camelCase JSON object keys into snake_case keys, and viceversa. It's a minimalistic angular module meant to minimize the effort in translating camel case JSON keys of JS clients to snake case, used in some APIs made with Ruby, for example.

Install it

$ bower install dolittle --save

Use it

// Include doolittle as a dependency to your module.
angular.module('myapp', ['dolittle'])
.controller('TestCtrl', function(dolittle){
  var testObj = {
    helloWorld : 'Hello World',
    nestedObject : {
      danger : 'Here be dragons',
      fooBar : [1, 2, 3],
      fooBarBaz : [
        { test1 : 'what'},
        { test2 : ['this', 'that']},
        nullioVonJulio : null
      ]
    }
  };

  var snakeized = dolittle.to.snake(testObj);
  // will return:
  // {
  //   "hello_world" : "Hello World",
  //   "nested_object" : {
  //     "danger" : "Here be dragons",
  //     "foo_bar" : [1,2,3],
  //     "foo_bar_baz" : [
  //       {"test1" : "what"},
  //       {"test2" : [ "this","that"]},
  //       "nullio_von_julio" : null
  //     ]
  //   }
  // }

  var camelized = dolittle.to.camel(snakeized);
  // will return the original object.
});

Thanks to

painpony for pointing out the zoo in this module, and zubieta for the funny name.
