Mathematical operations with CSS unit

import calculateMeasurement from 'calculate-measurement';
 
// Calculation with unit (default: addition)
let addPixel = calculateMeasurement('300px', 50); // '350px'
 
// Custom operation
let multiplyPercentage = calculateMeasurement('10%', 2, (value, delta) => value * delta); // '20%'
 
// Creating shorthand with lodash
let minusWithMinimum = _.partialRight(calculateMeasurement, (value, delta) => {
  return Math.max(value - delta, 100); // result is at least 100
});
 
let moreThan100 = minusWithMinimum('200px', 90); // '110px'
let lessThan100 = minusWithMinimum('200px', 110); // '100px'

Install

npm install calculate-measurement --save

API

`calculateMeasurement(value, delta, op)`

`value`

Type: Number | String

The value to be operated on. It can be a primitive number or a string with CSS unit. See tests for supported units.

`delta`

Type: Number

A unit-less number to indicate how much value should be altered.

`op` (optional)

Type: Function

Default: (unitlessValue, delta) => unitlessValue + delta

Custom function to compute end result. By default it adds delta to unitlessValue, the unit-less number version of value.

// Example: Subtraction
calculateMeasurement('50cm', 10, (a, b) => b - a); // '40cm'

// Example: Addition but limit at 100%
calculateMeasurement('80%', '30', (a, b) => Math.min(a + b, 100)); // '100%'

Returns

Calculation result in the format with value.
