question: what would be the simplest way to customize abbreviations?

for instance, my designer wants a capital ‘M’ for millions v lowercase ‘m’, i see i could overwrite my entire locale spec, but i was hoping for a more terse way, something like:

numeral.language().override({abbreviations: {million: 'M'}})

or i could use underscore/lodash extend() or default() against the abbreviation object if there was a method to return it, but right now it looks like numeral.language() just returns the string name of the language…

regards, tony.

In chinese culture, we don’t use thousands as a delimiter, but in 10k, as a ‘1万’. Is there any way to make a custom 4 digit per delimiter local config?

@cymen you should be able to using the CDN version as it shouldn’t be any different then having the JS loaded locally.

You can modify the object that’s returned from numeral.languageData() using underscore/lodash to change just the abbreviations or do as @wopian showed to overwrite everything.

_.assign(numeral.languageData('en'), {
    abbreviations: {
        thousand: "K",
        million: "M",
        billion: "B",
        trillion: "T"
    }
});

In my case, I didn’t want abbreviations enabled so I null them out:

_.assign(numeral.languageData(), { abbreviations: {} })
