- Utility to parse a string bytes (ex: `1TB`) to bytes (`1099511627776`) and vice-versa.
- ## Installation
- This is a [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) module available through the
- [npm registry](https://www.npmjs.com/). Installation is done using the
- [`npm install` command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally):
- ```bash
- $ npm install bytes
- ```
- ## Usage
- ```js
- var bytes = require('bytes');
- ```
- #### bytes(number|string value, [options]): number|string|null
- Default export function. Delegates to either `bytes.format` or `bytes.parse` based on the type of `value`.
- **Arguments**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------|----------|--------------------|
- | value | `number`|`string` | Number value to format or string value to parse |
- | options | `Object` | Conversion options for `format` |
- **Returns**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
- | results | `string`|`number`|`null` | Return null upon error. Numeric value in bytes, or string value otherwise. |
- **Example**
- ```js
- bytes(1024);
- // output: '1KB'
- bytes('1KB');
- // output: 1024
- ```
- #### bytes.format(number value, [options]): string|null
- Format the given value in bytes into a string. If the value is negative, it is kept as such. If it is a float, it is
- rounded.
- **Arguments**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------|----------|--------------------|
- | value | `number` | Value in bytes |
- | options | `Object` | Conversion options |
- **Options**
- | Property | Type | Description |
- |-------------------|--------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
- | decimalPlaces | `number`|`null` | Maximum number of decimal places to include in output. Default value to `2`. |
- | fixedDecimals | `boolean`|`null` | Whether to always display the maximum number of decimal places. Default value to `false` |
- | thousandsSeparator | `string`|`null` | Example of values: `' '`, `','` and `'.'`... Default value to `''`. |
- | unit | `string`|`null` | The unit in which the result will be returned (B/KB/MB/GB/TB). Default value to `''` (which means auto detect). |
- | unitSeparator | `string`|`null` | Separator to use between number and unit. Default value to `''`. |
- **Returns**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
- | results | `string`|`null` | Return null upon error. String value otherwise. |
- **Example**
- ```js
- bytes.format(1024);
- // output: '1KB'
- bytes.format(1000);
- // output: '1000B'
- bytes.format(1000, {thousandsSeparator: ' '});
- // output: '1 000B'
- bytes.format(1024 * 1.7, {decimalPlaces: 0});
- // output: '2KB'
- bytes.format(1024, {unitSeparator: ' '});
- // output: '1 KB'
- ```
- #### bytes.parse(string|number value): number|null
- Parse the string value into an integer in bytes. If no unit is given, or `value`
- is a number, it is assumed the value is in bytes.
- Supported units and abbreviations are as follows and are case-insensitive:
- * `b` for bytes
- * `kb` for kilobytes
- * `mb` for megabytes
- * `gb` for gigabytes
- * `tb` for terabytes
- * `pb` for petabytes
- The units are in powers of two, not ten. This means 1kb = 1024b according to this parser.
- **Arguments**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------------|--------|--------------------|
- | value | `string`|`number` | String to parse, or number in bytes. |
- **Returns**
- | Name | Type | Description |
- |---------|-------------|-------------------------|
- | results | `number`|`null` | Return null upon error. Value in bytes otherwise. |
- **Example**
- ```js
- bytes.parse('1KB');
- // output: 1024
- bytes.parse('1024');
- // output: 1024
- bytes.parse(1024);
- // output: 1024
