Functions

function prettyBytes

prettyBytes: (number: number, options?: Options) => string;
  • Convert bytes to a human readable string: 13371.34 kB.

    Parameter number

    The number to format.

    Example 1

    import prettyBytes from 'pretty-bytes';
    prettyBytes(1337);
    //=> '1.34 kB'
    prettyBytes(100);
    //=> '100 B'
    // Display file size differences
    prettyBytes(42, {signed: true});
    //=> '+42 B'
    // Localized output using German locale
    prettyBytes(1337, {locale: 'de'});
    //=> '1,34 kB'
