Money Formatters is a lightweight library for formatting monetary values according to various currencies in JavaScript/TypeScript.

Installation

Usage

asAmount

The asAmount function formats the given amount in the base unit to its corresponding value for the specified currency token.

For example, converting 100 cents to USD would result in 1,00 $.

const formattedAmount = asAmount({
  amount: 100000,
  token: "USD"
});

console.log(formattedAmount); // Output: 1 000,00 $

Options | Option | Description | Example Usage | Output | |-----------------|------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|------------------| | symbolToTheLeft | Determines whether the currency symbol should be placed to the left of the formatted amount (default: false). | symbolToTheLeft: true | $1 000,00 | | locale | The locale used for formatting the amount (default: "fr-FR"). | locale: "fr-FR" or locale: "en-US" | 1 000,00 $ or 1,000.00 $ | | showCurrencyCode | Determines whether the currency code should be displayed alongside the formatted amount (default: false). | showCurrencyCode: true | 1 000,00 USD | | negativeFormat | Determines how negative numbers should be formatted. Possible values: "minus" or "parentheses". Default: "minus". | negativeFormat: "parentheses" or negativeFormat: "minus" | (1 000,00 $) or -1 000,00 $ |

asAmountWithoutDecimals

The asAmountWithoutDecimals function calculates the equivalent amount in the base unit (e.g., dollars to cents) based on the specified currency token.

For example, 1 Dollar (USD) is equivalent to 100 cents. Therefore, calling asAmountWithoutDecimals(1, "USD") would return 100, representing 100 cents.

import { asAmountWithoutDecimals } from "money-formatters";

const amountWithoutDecimals = asAmountWithoutDecimals(1000, "USD");

console.log(amountWithoutDecimals); // Output: 100000
