Instance Method Details

#number_to_currency(number, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Formats a number into a currency string (e.g., $13.65). You can customize the format in the options hash.

Options

  • :precision - Sets the level of precision (defaults to 2).

  • :unit - Sets the denomination of the currency (defaults to “$”).

  • :separator - Sets the separator between the units (defaults to “.”).

  • :delimiter - Sets the thousands delimiter (defaults to “,”).

  • :format - Sets the format of the output string (defaults to “%u%n”). The field types are:

    %u  The currency unit
    %n  The number
    

Examples

number_to_currency(1234567890.50)                    # => $1,234,567,890.50
number_to_currency(1234567890.506)                   # => $1,234,567,890.51
number_to_currency(1234567890.506, :precision => 3)  # => $1,234,567,890.506

number_to_currency(1234567890.50, :unit => "£", :separator => ",", :delimiter => "")
# => £1234567890,50
number_to_currency(1234567890.50, :unit => "£", :separator => ",", :delimiter => "", :format => "%n %u")
# => 1234567890,50 £

def number_to_currency(number, options = {})
  options   = options.stringify_keys
  precision = options["precision"] || 2
  unit      = options["unit"] || "$"
  separator = precision > 0 ? options["separator"] || "." : ""
  delimiter = options["delimiter"] || ","
  format    = options["format"] || "%u%n"

  begin
    parts = number_with_precision(number, precision).split('.')
    format.gsub(/%n/, number_with_delimiter(parts[0], delimiter) + separator + parts[1].to_s).gsub(/%u/, unit)
  rescue
    number
  end
end

#number_to_human_size(size, precision = 1) ⇒ Object

Formats the bytes in size into a more understandable representation (e.g., giving it 1500 yields 1.5 KB). This method is useful for reporting file sizes to users. This method returns nil if size cannot be converted into a number. You can change the default precision of 1 using the precision parameter precision.

Examples

number_to_human_size(123)           # => 123 Bytes
number_to_human_size(1234)          # => 1.2 KB
number_to_human_size(12345)         # => 12.1 KB
number_to_human_size(1234567)       # => 1.2 MB
number_to_human_size(1234567890)    # => 1.1 GB
number_to_human_size(1234567890123) # => 1.1 TB
number_to_human_size(1234567, 2)    # => 1.18 MB
number_to_human_size(483989, 0)     # => 4 MB

#number_to_percentage(number, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Formats a number as a percentage string (e.g., 65%). You can customize the format in the options hash.

Options

  • :precision - Sets the level of precision (defaults to 3).

  • :separator - Sets the separator between the units (defaults to “.”).

Examples

number_to_percentage(100)                         # => 100.000%
number_to_percentage(100, :precision => 0)        # => 100%

number_to_percentage(302.24398923423, :precision => 5)
# => 302.24399%

end

#number_to_phone(number, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Formats a number into a US phone number (e.g., (555) 123-9876). You can customize the format in the options hash.

Options

  • :area_code - Adds parentheses around the area code.

  • :delimiter - Specifies the delimiter to use (defaults to “-”).

  • :extension - Specifies an extension to add to the end of the generated number.

  • :country_code - Sets the country code for the phone number.

Examples

number_to_phone(1235551234)                                        # => 123-555-1234
number_to_phone(1235551234, :area_code => true)                    # => (123) 555-1234
number_to_phone(1235551234, :delimiter => " ")                     # => 123 555 1234
number_to_phone(1235551234, :area_code => true, :extension => 555) # => (123) 555-1234 x 555
number_to_phone(1235551234, :country_code => 1)                    # => +1-123-555-1234

number_to_phone(1235551234, :country_code => 1, :extension => 1343, :delimiter => ".")
=> +1.123.555.1234 x 1343
