Number Formatting Functions

Syntax

Description

Example Code

Result

toFixed

Fix a number to specific number of decimal places

${pricePerShare | toFixed:2}

$1 → $1.00

roundNum

Round a number to specific decimal places

${pricePerShare | roundNum:2}

$15.34928 → $15.35

commaSeparate

Separate number with Commas

{numShares | commaSeparate}

10000 → 10,000

numberConvert

Convert integer into text

{numShares | numberConvert}

1000 → one thousand

numberConvert:'ordinalWords'

Convert integer into ordinal text

{123 | numberConvert:'ordinalWords'}

123 → one hundred twenty third

 

Currently numberConvert will only work for integers. They will not fully convert numbers with decimals into text but will just print the integer part of the number. (e.g. 101.23 → one hundred and one)

 

You can customize numbers converted to text with numberConvert by stacking text formatting functions. (e.g. {numShares | numberConvert | upper} : 1000 → ONE THOUSAND)
