ethjs-unit


A simple module for handling Ethereum unit convertion.

Install

npm install --save ethjs-unit

Usage

const unit = require('ethjs-unit');

var val1 = unit.toWei(249824778, 'ether');

// result <BN ...> 249824778000000000000000000

var val2 = unit.fromWei('249824778000000000000000000', 'ether');

// result '249824778'

About

A port from the web3.js library, that just handles the unit convertion between the various types of Ethereum currency units.

Note, the toWei returns a BN instance while fromWei always returns a string number.

Amorphic Data Formatting

ethjs-unit uses the number-to-bn module to format all number values (hex or otherwise) into digestable BN.js number instances.

Methods Available & Objects

unitMap         { unitName: singleUnitWeiValue, ... }
getValueOfUnit  <Function (unit) : (BN)>
toWei           <Function (value, unit) : (BN)>
fromWei         <Function (value, unit) : (String)>

Why BN.js?

ethjs has made a policy of using BN.js accross all of our modules. Here are some reasons why:

  1. Lighter than alternatives (BigNumber.js)
  2. Faster than most alternatives, see benchmarks
  3. Used by the Ethereum foundation across all ethereumjs repositories
  4. Is already used by a critical JS dependency of many ethereum packages, see package elliptic
  5. Does not support decimals or floats (for greater precision), remember, the Ethereum blockchain cannot and will not support float values or decimal numbers

Contributing

Please help better the ecosystem by submitting issues and pull requests to default. We need all the help we can get to build the absolute best linting standards and utilities. We follow the AirBNB linting standard and the unix philosophy.
