What are the parameters for the number Pipe - Angular 2

I have used the number pipe below to limit numbers to two decimal places.

{{ exampleNumber | number : '1.2-2' }}

I was wondering what the logic behind '1.2-2' was? I have played around with these trying to achieve a pipe which filters to zero decimal places but to no avail.

'0.0-0' will give you round formatted number with ','

100000.2 -> 100,000

very cool

  1. Regarding your first question.The pipe works as follows:

    numberValue | number: {minIntegerDigits}.{minFractionDigits}-{maxFractionDigits}

    • minIntegerDigits: Minimum number of integer digits to show before decimal point,set to 1by default

    • minFractionDigits: Minimum number of integer digits to show after the decimal point

    • maxFractionDigits: Maximum number of integer digits to show after the decimal point

2.Regarding your second question, Filter to zero decimal places as follows:

{{ numberValue | number: '1.0-0' }}

The parameter has this syntax:

{minIntegerDigits}.{minFractionDigits}-{maxFractionDigits}

So your example of '1.2-2' means:

  • A minimum of 1 digit will be shown before decimal point
  • It will show at least 2 digits after decimal point
  • But not more than 2 digits

'1.0-0' will give you zero decimal places i.e. no decimals. e.g.$500

From the DOCS

Formats a number as text. Group sizing and separator and other locale-specific configurations are based on the active locale.

SYNTAX:

number_expression | number[:digitInfo[:locale]]

where expression is a number:

digitInfo is a string which has a following format: 

{minIntegerDigits}.{minFractionDigits}-{maxFractionDigits}
  • minIntegerDigits is the minimum number of integer digits to use.Defaults to 1
  • minFractionDigits is the minimum number of digits
  • after fraction. Defaults to 0. maxFractionDigits is the maximum number of digits after fraction. Defaults to 3.
  • locale is a string defining the locale to use (uses the current LOCALE_ID by default)
