A few handy functions.

define ["underscore"],

  (_) ->

    trim = (input) ->
      if String.prototype.trim
        input.trim()
      else
        input.replace(/^\s+/, '').replace(/\s+$/, '')

Extends a URL, adding parameters and values from the params object. The values must already be URI encoded.

    extendURL = (url, params) ->

      sep = if url.indexOf("?") >= 0 then "&" else "?"

      for name, value of params
        url = url + sep + name + "=" + value
        sep = "&"

      return url

    exports =
      trim: trim
      extendURL: extendURL

      startsWith: (string, pattern) -> (string.lastIndexOf pattern) is 0

Trims leading and trailing whitespace from a string. Delegates to String.prototype.trim if present. Determines if the input is a blank string, or null, or an empty array.

      isBlank: (input) ->

          return true if input is null

          if _.isArray input
            return input.length is 0

          return (exports.trim input).length is 0

Splits the input string into words separated by whitespace

      split: (str) -> _(str.split " ").reject((s) -> s is "")
