Package Exports

number-parsing

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (number-parsing) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

number-parsing

When you are receiving data from all over the world you might encounter problems while using parseFloat or parseInt. This libraray is here to help you handling all locales with one single piece of code.

Install

just run npm install number-parsing

Usage

var parser = require("number-parsing");
var a = parser("123'123.99USD"); // will return 123123.99
var b = parser("1234"); // will return 1234
var c = parser("123 123,777") // will return 123123.777
// and so on

Resolve ambiguities

Some notations are ambiguous. For example if you receive '123,123'. You have no clue if it means 123.123 or 123123. If you are dealing with strange locales which uses , as a thousand delimiter, then you might want to specify the afinity of the parser for some locale.

var parser = require("number-parsing");
var a = parser("123,123", {
    us : 0.75
    fr  : 0.25
} // will return 123123
var a = parser("123,123", {
    fr : 0.75
    us  : 0.25
} // will return 123.123
