amount

Documentation

Overview

Package amount provides utilities for converting numbers to/from the format used internally to digitalbits-core.

digitalbits-core represents asset "amounts" as 64-bit integers, but to enable fractional units of an asset, frontier, the client-libraries and other built on top of digitalbits-core use a convention, encoding amounts as a string of decimal digits with up to seven digits of precision in the fractional portion. For example, an amount shown as "101.001" in frontier would be represented in digitalbits-core as 1010010000.

Constants

const (
	One = 10000000
)

One is the value of one whole unit of currency. DigitalBits uses 7 fixed digits for fractional values, thus One is 10 million (10^7).

Functions

func MustParse

func MustParse(v string) xdr.Int64

MustParse is the panicking version of Parse.

func Parse

func Parse(v string) (xdr.Int64, error)

Parse parses the provided as a digitalbits "amount", i.e. a 64-bit signed integer that represents a decimal number with 7 digits of significance in the fractional portion of the number, and returns a xdr.Int64.

func ParseInt64

func ParseInt64(v string) (int64, error)

ParseInt64 parses the provided as a digitalbits "amount", i.e. a 64-bit signed integer that represents a decimal number with 7 digits of significance in the fractional portion of the number.

func String

func String(v xdr.Int64) string

String returns an "amount string" from the provided raw xdr.Int64 value `v`.

func StringFromInt64

func StringFromInt64(v int64) string

StringFromInt64 returns an "amount string" from the provided raw int64 value `v`.
