# isKebabcase

> Test if a value is a string in kebab case.

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var isKebabcase = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-kebabcase' );
```

#### isKebabcase( value )

Tests if a `value` is a `string` in kebab case.

```javascript
var bool = isKebabcase( 'beep-boop' );
// returns true

bool = isKebabcase( 'BEEP_BOOP' );
// returns false
```

</section>

<!-- /.usage -->

<section class="notes">

## Notes

-   The function validates that a `value` is a `string`. For all other types, the function returns `false`.

## Examples

<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->

```javascript
var isKebabcase = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-kebabcase' );

var bool = isKebabcase( 'beep-boop' );
// returns true

bool = isKebabcase( 'BEEP_BOOP' );
// returns false

bool = isKebabcase( 'fooBar' );
// returns false

bool = isKebabcase( 'foo_bar' );
// returns false

bool = isKebabcase( 'BeepBoop' );
// returns false

bool = isKebabcase( null );
// returns false
```

### Usage

```text
Usage: is-kebabcase [options] [<string>]

Options:

  -h,    --help                Print this message.
  -V,    --version             Print the package version.
         --split sep           Delimiter for stdin data. Default: '/\\r?\\n/'.
```

<section class="notes">

### Notes

-   If the split separator is a [regular expression][mdn-regexp], ensure that the `split` option is either properly escaped or enclosed in quotes.

    ```bash
    # Not escaped...
    $ echo -n $'beEp booP\nfoo-bar' | is-kebabcase --split /\r?\n/
    # Escaped...
    $ echo -n $'beEp booP\nfoo-bar' | is-kebabcase --split /\\r?\\n/
    ```

-   The implementation ignores trailing delimiters.

</section>

<!-- /.notes -->

<section class="examples">

### Examples

```bash
$ is-kebabcase beep-boop
true
```

To use as a [standard stream][standard-streams],

```bash
$ echo -n 'beep Boop' | is-kebabcase
false
```

By default, when used as a [standard stream][standard-streams], the implementation assumes newline-delimited data. To specify an alternative delimiter, set the `split` option.

```bash
$ echo -n 'beepBoop\tfoo-bar' | is-kebabcase --split '\t'
false
true
```
