Intl-Number-Parser š¢
š¢ A JavaScript function that parses numbers in various international number
systems (locale) to native JavaScript numbers.
š Introduction
Intl-Number-Parser is a lightweight and easy-to-use JavaScript function that
allows you to parse numbers in different international number systems to native
JavaScript numbers. It uses the built-in
Intl object to format and parse
numbers based on the locale specified.
The function provides support for different number systems and supports different formats for negative numbers and currencies. Internally, the function
uses
Intl.NumberFormat. Currently, it assumes positional and decimal
numerals.
š Usage
To use the Intl-Number-Parser function, simply import it into your project and
call it with a string containing the number you want to parse. You can also
specify a locale and options for the
Intl.NumberFormat constructor, which
the function uses internally to format and parse numbers.
Here's an example of how to use the function:
``
js
import NumberParser from 'intl-number-parser';
const parser = NumberParser('en-US', { style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' });
const number = parser('$1,234.56'); // returns 1234.56
`
In this example, we create a new instance of the Intl-Number-Parser function
with the en-US
locale and the currency
style, which formats the number as
a currency with the USD` currency code. We then call the function with a
string containing a currency-formatted number and get back the parsed
JavaScript number.
