Formatting

WireBootstrap provides a number of options for string, numeric, and other type formatting.  
String 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
Number Formatting
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
Custom Formatting
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");
});
