Formatting
WireBootstrap provides a number of options for string, numeric, and other type formatting.
WireBootstrap adds a string extension called
format
that allows variables inside a string expression to be replaced by values. The variables are expressed using the numeric index position of the variables within the string in curly brackets {}
.const str = "Use this {0} to format {1}".format("expression", "strings");
// Use this expression to format strings
Numeric values can be formatted using the
format
method with a format specification. Valid values are C[N], P[N], N[N] where [N] is the number of decimal places.The example below sets the formatting for a number to one decimal place using the
N1
parameter in the format
function. const currencyFormat = wire.format(10000.12, "N1");
// currencyFormat = 10,000.1
The format method can also accept a custom function in order to format data.
The following example formats a date field called
date_field
using the third party library moment.js.const dte = wire.format("1980-10-10", (row) => {
return moment(row["date_field"]).format("MM-DD-YYYY");
});
