Changelog for Cldr_Numbers v2.1.1

This is the changelog for Cldr v2.1.1 released on February 3rd, 2019. For older changelogs please consult the release tag on GitHub

Bug Fixes

  • Formats Decimal.new("-0") the same as Decimal.new("0") which is to say without the sign. Although the Decimal standard upon which the Decimal library is based allows for -0, formatting this as a string with the sign is not consistent with the output for integers and floats. Consistency is, in this case, considered to be the correct approach.

  • Fix documentation errors

  • Refactored options for Cldr.Numbers.to_string/3 and other functions that use the common number formatting options structure. Options are now parsed and contained in a Cldr.Number.Format.Options struct. A user-visible benefit is that if passing a Cldr.Number.Format.Options struct to Cldr.Number.to_string/3 then no further validation or normalization will be performed. Therefore if you are formatting in a tight loop and using common options, saving the options in advance will yield some performance improvement. A Cldr.Number.Format.Options struct can be returned by called Cldr.Number.Format.Options.validate_options(backend, options).

Breaking Changes

  • ex_cldr_numbers now depends upon ex_cldr version 2.0. As a result it is a requirement that at least one backend module be configured as described in the ex_cldr readme.

  • The public API is now based upon functions defined on a backend module. Therefore calls to functions such as Cldr.Number.to_string/2 should be replaced with calls to MyApp.Cldr.Number.to_string/2 (assuming your configured backend module is called MyApp.Cldr).

Enhancements

  • Adds Cldr.Number.validate_number_system/3 and <backend>.Number.validate_number_system/2 that are now the canonical way to validate and return a number system from either a number system binary or atom, or from a number system name.

  • Cldr.Number.{Ordinal, Cardinal}.pluralize/3 now support ranges, not just numbers

  • Currency spacing is now applied for currency formatting. Depending on the locale, some text may be placed between the current symbol and the number. This enhanced readibility, it does not change the number formatting itself. For example you can see below that for the locale "en", when the currency symbol is text, a non-breaking space is introduced between it and the number.

iex> MyApp.Cldr.Number.to_string 2345, currency: :USD, format: "¤#,##0.00"
{:ok, "$2,345.00"}

iex> MyApp.Cldr.Number.to_string 2345, currency: :USD, format: "¤¤#,##0.00"
{:ok, "USD 2,345.00"}
