Compact number formatting based on CLDR locale data. Particularly useful for __statistical data__, showing financial numbers in __charts__, and __abbreviating number of ratings__ across a range of languages.

- `1234` is converted to `1K` in **English**
- `101234` is converted to `101K` in **English** and `101.1K` if need 1 significant digit
- `1234` is converted to `1 mil` in **Español**
- `101234` is converted to `101,1 mil` in **Español** if need 1 significant digit
- `1234` is converted to `1234` in **Japanese**
- `101234` is converted to `10.1万` in **Japanese** if need 1 significant digit

Depends on data from [cldr-numbers-full](https://github.com/unicode-cldr/cldr-numbers-full). Here is the related proposal for [Compact Decimal Format](https://github.com/tc39/ecma402/issues/37) that this addon is based on. This is why there are no browser API's baked into something like `Intl.NumberFormat`.

Installation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

```
npm install cldr-compact-number --save
```

Usage
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following APIs take the language code as the the second argument based on [ISO 639-1](http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_list.php). You can also pass `en_GB` and we will normalize it to `en-GB` as well.

### API

We default this library with `en` `localeData`. What is `localeData`?

`localeData` for most cases comes through a build tool. You define what languages you want upfront so as to avoid bloating your application bundle and the build tool parses CLDR data and formats it. See `priv/` for examples of what shape the data should be in if you want to manually construct this data.

```js
import compactFormat from 'cldr-compact-number';

compactFormat(19634, 'en', localeData);
// 19K
```

```js
compactFormat(19634, 'en', localeData, {
significantDigits: 1,
minimumFractionDigits: 1,
maximumFractionDigits: 2
});
// 19.6K
```

```js
compactFormat(101, 'en', localeData, {
significantDigits: 1,
financialFormat: true
});
// 0.1M
```

```js
compactFormat(19634, 'ja', localeData);
// 2万
```

```js
compactFormat(19634, 'es', localeData, { significantDigits: 1 });
// 19,6 mil
```

* Note when using significantDigits, this addon utilizes [`toLocaleString`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/toLocaleString).

### Long Formatting

"Wait, I thought this addon was for compact number formatting?" Well it can be a misnomer depending on the language. Let's look at some examples.

This doesn't seem shorter!!!! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
```js
compactFormat(101000, 'en', localeData, { long: true });
// 101 thousand
```

But this does! ʘ‿ʘ
```js
compactFormat(101000, 'ja', localeData, { long: true });
// 101万
```

So we will just go with `cldr-compact-number` for now.
