NumScale

A Meteor package for converting numbers into pretty strings with suffixes to indicate scale (Kilo, Million, Billion, etc). Makes it super easy to display pretty numbers in your Meteor project.

Direct API Examples

Template Helper

{{numScale <value> <maxLen> <powerOf>}}
{{numScale 1000000000 5 10}}

Usage:

The scale() method takes an object argument. The members of the argument object are as follows:

• value (required) - the number to be scaled and formatted
• powerOf (optional) - either 2 or 10: sets scaling factor (defaults to 10)
• maxLen (optional) - maximum length of the string to be returned (default 20)

'value' must be a non-negative positive integer within the safe JavaScript range.
