Sizeable

An Elixir library to make file sizes human-readable.

Installation

The package can be installed as:

1. Add sizeable to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

```elixir
def deps do
  [{:sizeable, "~> 0.1.5"}]
end
```

2. Ensure sizeable is started before your application:

```elixir
def application do
  [applications: [:sizeable]]
end
```

Usage

Sizeable.filesize(value, options \\ %{})

Returns a human-readable string for the given numeric value.

Arguments:

• value (Integer/Float/String) representing the filesize to be converted.
• options (Struct) representing the options to determine base, rounding and units.

Options

• bits: true if the result should be in bits, false if in bytes. Defaults to false.
• spacer: the string that should be between the number and the unit. Defaults to " ".
• round: the precision that the number should be rounded down to. Defaults to 2.
• base: the base for exponent calculation. 2 for binary-based numbers, any other Integer can be used. Defaults to 2.

Example - Get file size for 1024 bytes

Sizeable.filesize(1024)
"1 KB"

Example - Get bit-sized file size for 1024 bytes

Sizeable.filesize(1024, %{bits:true})
"8 Kb"
