``shell`
$ npm install pretty-metricUsage
`js
const prettyMetric = require('pretty-metric')
prettyMetric(1500).km()
// => 1.5km
prettyMetric(1500000).humanize()
// => 1,500km
prettyMetric(1500).humanize()
// => 1.5km
prettyMetric(.4).humanize()
// => 40cm
// Using input types
prettyMetric(150).input('cm').humanize()
// => 1.5m
prettyMetric(0.5).input('cm').humanize()
// => 5mm
`
#### .km(), .hm(), .dam(), .m(), .dm(), .cm(), .mm()
> Converts the input measurement to the corresponding output
Default input measurement type is meter. It can be changed with .input()
`js
prettyMetric(1500).km()
// => 1.5km
prettyMetric(1).mm()
// => 1000m
`
#### humanize()
> Converts the input value to a more human recognizable size
This method will automatically add commas to the output string as follows:
`
100000 => 100km
1000000 => 1,000km
10000000 => 10,000km
`js
prettyMetric(150).humanize()
// => 1.5m
`
#### input()
> Sets the input value to a particular metric
This can be chained with humanize()
`js
prettyMetric(1500).input('cm').km()
// => 0.015km
prettyMetric(1500).input('mm').humanize()
// => 1.5m
`
