node-size

Convert byte/bit numbers to human-readable format and reverse. This modules supports both IEC and SI/JEDEC formats (1000 and 1024 divisions).

Installation

In order to install it you can run:

$ npm install node-size --save

Usage

Simple usage:

import { humanReadableSize } from 'node-size';

let input = 10362;
let output = humanReadableSize(input);
console.log(output); // prints '10.12 kB'

IEC standard usage:

import { humanReadableSize, SIZE_FORMAT } from 'node-size';

let input = 10120;
let output = humanReadableSize(input, SIZE_FORMAT.IEC);
console.log(output); // prints '10.12 KiB'

Changing default format:

import { setDefaultSizeFormat, humanReadableSize, SIZE_FORMAT } from 'node-size';

setDefaultSizeFormat(SIZE_FORMAT.IEC);

let input = 10120;
let output = humanReadableSize(input);
console.log(output); // prints '10.12 KiB'

Machine-readable usage:

import { machineReadableSize, SIZE_FORMAT } from 'node-size';

let input = "1 MiB";
let output = size.machineReadableSize(input, SIZE_FORMAT.IEC);
console.log(output); // prints '10000000' (number)

Available values for SIZE_FORMAT:

• SI - divides/multiplies by 1024
• JEDEC - same as SI
• IEC - divides/multiplies by 1000
