## Installation

```bash
pip install title-fix
```

## Usage

### Basic Usage

```python
from title_fix import title_fix

# Simple title case conversion (using default APA style)
result = title_fix("this is a test title")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "This Is a Test Title"

# Get word and character count
print(result["word_count"])  # Output: 5
print(result["char_count"])  # Output: 20
```

### Citation Styles

```python
# APA Style (default) - capitalizes words with 4+ letters
result = title_fix("the theory of relativity in physics", style="apa")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The Theory of Relativity in Physics"

# Chicago Style - capitalizes all major words
result = title_fix("the theory of relativity in physics", style="chicago")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The Theory of Relativity in Physics"

# AP Style - capitalizes words with 4+ letters
result = title_fix("the theory of relativity in physics", style="ap")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The Theory of Relativity in Physics"

# MLA Style - capitalizes all principal words
result = title_fix("the theory of relativity in physics", style="mla")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The Theory of Relativity in Physics"

# NYT Style - capitalizes words with 5+ letters
result = title_fix("the theory of relativity in physics", style="nyt")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The Theory of Relativity in Physics"
```

### Different Case Styles

```python
# Sentence case
result = title_fix("THIS IS A TEST.", case_type="sentence")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "This is a test."

# UPPERCASE
result = title_fix("test text", case_type="upper")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "TEST TEXT"

# lowercase
result = title_fix("TEST TEXT", case_type="lower")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "test text"

# First Letter Case
result = title_fix("test text", case_type="first")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "Test Text"

# AlTeRnAtInG cAsE
result = title_fix("test text", case_type="alt")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "TeSt TeXt"

# tOGGLE cAsE
result = title_fix("Test Text", case_type="toggle")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "tEST tEXT"
```

### Additional Features

```python
# Convert curly quotes to straight quotes
result = title_fix("test with quotes", straight_quotes=True)
print(result["text"])  # Converts any curly quotes to straight quotes

# Get headline score (0-100 based on best practices)
result = title_fix("How to Write the Perfect Headline in 7 Steps")
print(result["headline_score"])  # Output: 75

# Get available options
from title_fix import get_supported_styles, get_supported_case_types
print(get_supported_styles())     # ['apa', 'chicago', 'ap', 'mla', 'nyt']
print(get_supported_case_types()) # ['title', 'sentence', 'upper', 'lower', 'first', 'alt', 'toggle']
```

### Special Handling

The package intelligently handles various text elements:

```python
# Roman numerals
result = title_fix("world war ii and chapter iv")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "World war II and Chapter IV"

# Acronyms
result = title_fix("nasa, fbi, and cia collaboration")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "NASA, FBI, and CIA Collaboration"

# Hyphenated words
result = title_fix("well-known state-of-the-art solution")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "Well-Known State-of-the-art Solution"

# Subtitles after colons
result = title_fix("main title: a subtitle here")
print(result["text"])  # Output: "Main Title: A Subtitle Here"
```

### Custom Acronyms

You can now provide your own acronyms to be capitalized:

```python
# Add custom acronyms like API, SDK, REST, etc.
result = title_fix("the api and sdk documentation", acronyms=["api", "sdk"])
print(result["text"])  # Output: "The API and SDK Documentation"

# Works with default acronyms too
result = title_fix("nasa api and fbi database", acronyms=["api", "database"])
print(result["text"])  # Output: "NASA API and FBI DATABASE"

# Handles acronyms with numbers
result = title_fix("using oauth2 authentication", acronyms=["oauth2"])
print(result["text"])  # Output: "Using OAUTH2 Authentication"

# Works with hyphenated acronyms
result = title_fix("jwt-based authentication", acronyms=["jwt"])
print(result["text"])  # Output: "JWT-Based Authentication"
```

### Preserve Uppercase Words

Keep words that are already fully uppercase in your input:

```python
# Preserve all-uppercase words from the input
result = title_fix("REST API with GRAPHQL backend", preserve_uppercase=True)
print(result["text"])  # Output: "REST API With GRAPHQL Backend"

# Works with mixed content
result = title_fix("Using JWT tokens with OAUTH2", preserve_uppercase=True)
print(result["text"])  # Output: "Using JWT Tokens With OAUTH2"

# Combine with custom acronyms for maximum flexibility
result = title_fix(
    "REST api and SDK integration",
    acronyms=["api", "sdk"],
    preserve_uppercase=True
)
print(result["text"])  # Output: "REST API and SDK Integration"
```

## Citation Style Rules

Each citation style follows specific rules for capitalization:

### APA Style
- Capitalize first word and first word after colons
- Capitalize all major words with 4+ letters
- Capitalize both parts of hyphenated major words
- Always capitalize: proper nouns, acronyms, and verbs

### Chicago Style
- Capitalize first and last words
- Capitalize all major words regardless of length
- Lowercase articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions, and prepositions
- Capitalize both parts of hyphenated words

### AP Style
- Capitalize words with 4+ letters
- Capitalize first and last words
- Always capitalize: proper nouns, acronyms
- Special handling for AP-specific terms

### MLA Style
- Capitalize first word and all principal words
- Capitalize verbs (including is, are, was, were)
- Lowercase articles, prepositions, and coordinating conjunctions
- Capitalize both parts of hyphenated major words

### NYT Style
- Capitalize words with 5+ letters
- Always capitalize proper nouns and acronyms
- More conservative with capitalization of short words
- Capitalize first and last words

## Headline Score

The headline score is calculated based on several factors:

- Optimal length (40-60 characters scores highest)
- Word count (6-10 words ideal)
- Use of power words (how, why, what, when, top, best, new, ultimate, complete, guide)
- Use of emotional words (amazing, incredible, shocking, secret, proven)
- Presence of numbers
- Overall structure and readability

A score of 100 indicates an optimal headline according to common best practices. Scores above 70 are generally considered good.

## Error Handling

The package includes comprehensive input validation:

```python
from title_fix import validate_input

# Validate parameters before processing
try:
    validate_input("test text", "title", "apa")  # Valid
    validate_input("test text", "invalid", "apa")  # Raises ValueError
except ValueError as e:
    print(f"Validation error: {e}")
```
