A library to convert a number in various money formats
A simple PHP library to convert a number to money format., (*1)
$ composer require linuxartisan/tomoney
Alternatively, you may add the following in composer.json
file., (*2)
{ "require": { "linuxartisan/tomoney": "*" } }
And then execute, (*3)
$ composer install
After installation, to dump the autoloader, execute, (*4)
$ composer dump-autoload
<?php require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php'; use LinuxArtisan\ToMoney\Money; echo Money::formatToIndian(123456127.73); // to Indian // "12,34,56,127.73" echo Money::formatToUS(123456127.73); // to US // "123,456,127.73" echo Money::formatTo('en_GB', 123456127.73); // to custom // "123,456,127.73"
Numeric values may be passed as strings too, (*5)
echo Money::formatToIndian('12345.67'); // to Indian echo Money::formatToUS('1234.56'); // to US echo Money::formatTo('en_GB', '1234.56'); // to custom
But this is not recommended, as a non-numeric string will be returned as '0'., (*6)
return Money::formatTo('en_GB', "12abcd127.731");
will return 0
as a string., (*7)
Also, if a particular locale is not supported, the same amount will be returned as a string without formatting., (*8)
return Money::formatTo('some_unsupported_locale', 12345); // "12345"
To view all the available locales on your system, give the following command in the terminal, (*9)
$ locale -a
These locales may be used as argument to the formatTo
function., (*10)
