Wrap quantity and unit of measure with conversions/humanizers.

Installation

composer require zenstruck/dimension

Usage

A dimension consists of a quantity (numeric) and a unit of measure (string).

Dimension Object

use Zenstruck\Dimension;

// create
$dimension = new Dimension(45.458, 'ft');
$dimension = Dimension::from('45.458ft'); // equivalent to above

$dimension->quantity(); // 45.458
$dimension->unit(); // "ft"

// render
$dimension->toString(); // "45.46 ft" (max 2 decimal places)
(string) $dimension; // equivalent to above

$dimension->toArray(); // [45.458, "ft"]
json_encode($dimension); // '[45.458, "ft"]'

// use your own formatter
vsprintf('%.4f%s', $dimension->toArray()); // "45.4580ft"

Conversions

A dimension object can be converted to alternate units. The following converters are available:

• Mass
• Length
• Temperature
• Duration (length of time)
• Information (bytes)
• Propose additional converters via issue/PR

Use the convertTo() method to perform conversions:

use Zenstruck\Dimension;

$dimension = Dimension::from('45ft');

$converted = $dimension->convertTo('m'); // Zenstruck\Dimension
$converted->quantity(); // 13.716
$converted->unit(); // "m"
$converted->toString(); // "13.71 m"

$dimension->convertTo('g'); // throws ConversionNotPossible - cannot convert feet to grams

Comparisons

Several comparison methods are available:

use Zenstruck\Dimension;

$dimension = Dimension::from('45ft');

$dimension->isEqualTo('6m'); // false
$dimension->isLargerThan('6m'); // true
$dimension->isLargerThanOrEqualTo('6m'); // true
$dimension->isSmallerThan('6m'); // false
$dimension->isSmallerThanOrEqualTo('6m'); // false
$dimension->isWithin('6m', '1km'); // true
$dimension->isOutside('6m', '1km'); // false

Mathematical Operations

use Zenstruck\Dimension;

$dimension = Dimension::from('45ft');

$dimension->add('6m')->toString(); // "64.69 ft"
$dimension->subtract('6m')->toString(); // "25.31 ft"

Information Object

Zenstruck\Dimension\Information extends Zenstruck\Dimension so it has the same API with some additional features related to humanizing bytes.

use Zenstruck\Dimension\Information;

$info = Information::from('4568897B');
$info = Information::from(4568897); // equivalent to above (can create from bytes directly)

$info->bytes(); // 4568897

// "humanize"
(string) $info->humanize(); // "4.57 MB" (defaults to the decimal system)
(string) $info->asBinary()->humanize(); // "4.36 MiB" (convert to binary system before humanizing)

(string) Information::binary(4568897)->humanize(); // "4.36 MiB" (explicitly create in binary system)

// when creating with a unit of measure, the system is detected
(string) Information::from('4570 kb')->humanize(); // "4.57 MB"
(string) Information::from('4570 KiB')->humanize(); // "4.46 MiB"

Duration Object

Zenstruck\Dimension\Duration extends Zenstruck\Dimension so it has the same API with the ability to humanize a duration.

use Zenstruck\Dimension\Duration;

$duration = Duration::from('8540 s');
$duration = Duration::from(8540); // equivalent to above (can create from seconds directly)

(string) $duration->humanize(); // "2 hrs"

(string) Duration::from(0)->humanize(); // "0 secs"
(string) Duration::from(1)->humanize(); // "1 sec"
(string) Duration::from(10)->humanize(); // "10 secs"
(string) Duration::from(65)->humanize(); // "1 min"

Bridge

Twig Extension

A Twig extension is provided with dimension, information, and duration filters.

Manual Activation:

/* @var Twig\Environment $twig */

$twig->addExtension(new \Zenstruck\Dimension\Bridge\Twig\DimensionExtension());

Symfony full-stack activation:

# config/packages/zenstruck_dimension.yaml

Zenstruck\Dimension\Bridge\Twig\DimensionExtension: ~

# If not using auto-configuration:
Zenstruck\Dimension\Bridge\Twig\DimensionExtension:
    tag: twig.extension

Usage:

{{ '45.458ft'|dimension.convertTo('m') }} {# "13.71 m" #}

{{ 4568897|information.humanize() }} {# "4.57 MB" #}

{{ 8540|duration.humanize() }} {# "2 hrs" #}
