How can I convert double to currency format in Android

Question

I want to show my numbers with doublet type data in money format and separate digits like the example below:

1000.578 -----> 1,000.58

10000.433 -----> 10,000.43

100000.4647474 -----> 100,000.46

I already created using kotlin extension like below:

fun Double.addAutomaticThousandSeparator() : String {
    val formattedNumber = String.format(Locale.US,"%,02d", this).replace(',', '.')
    return "$formattedNumber"
}

But it's not working and make my app force close with logcat like below:

java.util.IllegalFormatConversionException: d != java.lang.Double

I think the problem it's because of the format that I created. But I already search double to money formatted on google but still not found. Can you help me fix my kotlin extension with formatted double to money?

Thanks

Answer 1

You can try with DecimalFormat.

DecimalFormat is a concrete subclass of NumberFormat that formats decimal numbers. It has a variety of features designed to make it possible to parse and format numbers in any locale, including support for Western, Arabic, and Indic digits.

 val currency=(100000.4647474).convert()
  println("Value$currency") //100,000.46

Then

 fun Double.convert(): String {
        val format = DecimalFormat("#,###.00")
        format.isDecimalSeparatorAlwaysShown = false
        return format.format(this).toString()
    }

Answer 2

You can create function to chucked (3) and joined the string with ","

fun Double.addAutomaticThousandSeparator()
        = toInt()
    .toString()
    .reversed()
    .chunked(3)
    .joinToString(",")
    .reversed() + if (this % 1 > 0) ".${(this % 1).toString().split(".")[1].take(2)}" else ""

when you want to use it you can simply just call the function like this:

val a = 1000.578
val b = 10000.433
val c = 100000.4647474

val formatA = a.addAutomaticThousandSeparator()
val formatB = b.addAutomaticThousandSeparator()

println(formatA)
println(formatB)
println(c.addAutomaticThousandSeparator())

Output

1,000.57
10,000.43
100,000.46
