Humanize.jl

Build Status

Humanize numbers, including

  • data sizes (3e6 -> 3.0 MB or 2.9 MiB).
  • Date/datetime differences (Date(2014,2,3) - Date(2013,3,7) -> 1 year, 1 month)
  • Digit separator (12345678 -> 12,345,678)

This package is MIT licensed, and is based on jmoiron's humanize Python library.

Data sizes

datasize(value::Number; style=:dec, format="%.1f")

Style can be :dec (base 10^3), :bin (base 2^10), :gnu (base 2^10, like ls -hs).

import Humanize: datasize
datasize(3000000)  # "3.0 MB"
datasize(3000000, style=:bin, format="%.3f")  # "2.861 MiB"
datasize(3000000, style=:gnu, format="%.3f")  # "2.861M"

Date/datetime differences

timedelta(seconds::Integer)
timedelta(seconds::Dates.Second)
timedelta(Δdt::Dates.Millisecond)
timedelta(Δdate::Dates.Day)

Turns a date/datetime difference into a abbreviated human-friendly form.

import Humanize: timedelta
timedelta(70)  # "a minute"
import Dates: DateTime, Date
timedelta(DateTime(2014,2,3,12,11,10) - 
            DateTime(2013,3,7,13,1,20))  # "11 months"
timedelta(Date(2014,3,7) - Date(2013,2,4))  # "1 year, 1 month"

Digit separator

digitsep(value::Integer; separator=",", per_separator=3)

Convert an integer to a string, separating each per_separator digits by separator.

import Humanize: digitsep
digitsep(12345678)  # "12,345,678"
digitsep(12345678, seperator= "'")  # "12'345'678"
digitsep(12345678, seperator= "-", per_separator=4)  # "1234-5678"
