Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

jQuery Number Plugin

By Sam Sehnert, Custom D 2015

This is a jQuery plugin which allows developers to easily format numbers for display use. Allows users to replace numbers inline in a document, or return a formatted number for other uses.

Requires jQuery 1.6 or greater.

Documentation

See our jQuery Number Format article for more information.

Basic number formatting

The number method takes up to four parameters, but only the first one is required.

  1. Number: The number you want to format.

    $.number( 5020.2364 ); // Outputs 5,020
  2. Decimal Places: The number of decimal places you wish to see. Defaults to 0.

    $.number( 5020.2364, 2 ); // Outputs: 5,020.24
  3. Decimal Separator: The character(s) to use as a decimal separator. Defaults to '.'.

    $.number( 135.8729, 3, ',' ); // Outputs: 135,873
  4. Thousands Separator: The character(s) to use as a thousands separator. Defaults to ','.

    $.number( 5020.2364, 1, ',', ' ' ); // Outputs: 5 020,2	

Number formatting as-you-type

When targeting a collection of input elements, you can have the number format plugin automatically format the users input based on your format settings.

$('input.number').number( true, 2 );

Passing true to the number parameter, indicates that you want the value of the field or element to be effected, instead of placing the passed number into the field or element. All other parameters are as decribed above.

When the user types, their input will automatically be converted in the correct format. This also attaches .val() hooks which allow you to continue using .val() to set your input elements, and you don't need to worry about handling the formatting.

Automatic paste formatting is also supported.

Writing numbers into an element

$('.selector').number( 1234, 2 ); // Changes the text value of the element matching selector to the formatted number.

Formatting numbers within a collection of elements

Assuming we have the following structure:

<p>
  <span class="number">1025.8702</span>
  <span class="number">18023</span>
  <span class="number">982.3</span>
  <span class="number">.346323</span>
</p>

We can use this JavaScript:

// the 'true' signals we should read and replace the text contents of the target element.
$('span.number').number( true, 2 )

And come away with this result:

<p>
  <span class="number">1,025.87</span>
  <span class="number">18,023.00</span>
  <span class="number">982.30</span>
  <span class="number">0.35</span>
</p>
