README

A simple package used for formatting a Money\Money value object.

Money is usually not stored as a float in your database, though your clients/users don't want to see 1000 meaning, 10. This package receives an amount in cents, and displays it according to the given locale with or with the currency symbol.

Want to use this inside a Laravel application? Check out the MoneyFormatter-Laravel package.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require nwidart/money-formatter

Usage

To format money in cents:

$formatter = new MoneyFormatter('en_US');
$formattedMoney = $formatter->format(new Money(1000, new Currency('USD')));
# output : $10.00

Sometimes you may wish to not have the currency symbol, this can be done like so:

$formatter = new MoneyFormatter('en_US');
$formattedMoney = $formatter->formatWithoutCurrency(new Money(1000, new Currency('USD')));
# output : 10.00

This can be useful if your currency selection is a separate dropdown, for instance.

Testing

$ phpunit
