@rbxts/abbreviate

Installation:

npm i @rbxts/abbreviate

Example Usage

import Abbreviator from "@rbxts/abbreviate";

const abbreviator = new Abbreviator();
abbreviator.setSetting('suffixTable', ['k', 'm', 'b']);
abbreviator.setSetting('decimalPlaces', 2);

print(abbreviator.stringToNumber('500')) // 500
print(abbreviator.stringToNumber('5k')) // 5000
print(abbreviator.stringToNumber('5m')) // 5000000
print(abbreviator.stringToNumber('1.23456m')) // 1234560

print(abbreviator.numberToString(999)) // 999
print(abbreviator.numberToString(1000)) // 1.00k
print(abbreviator.numberToString(1000000)) // 1.00m
print(abbreviator.numberToString(1234567)) // 1.23m

Settings

The possible settings you can set are the following: | Setting Name | Setting Value Type | Setting Description | Setting Default | Setting Example |---|---|---|---|---| | suffixTable | Array\<string> | Sets the suffix table to be used when using numberToString | here | "k", "m", "b" | | decimalPlaces | number | Sets the amount of decimal places a number may have when using numberToString | 2 | 4 | | stripTrailingZeroes | boolean | Removes any extra zeroes after a decimal place that are dangling after numberToString calls. E.g. "52506.004" => "5.2506k" | false | true

Why make Abbreviator a class?

You may want multiple abbreviators throughout your game with different settings, i.e. one module may want only 2 d.p. while another may want 0 d.p To solve this, abbreviate requires you to construct a new abbreviator. The settings of this abbreviator is independent of other abbreviators.
