Installation
Numeral.js can be easily integrated into your project using various methods, including package managers like npm or by including it directly in the browser via a CDN.
Using npm
For Node.js projects or front-end projects using a build system, the recommended way to install Numeral.js is through npm.
npm install numeral
Once installed, you can require it in your project:
const numeral = require('numeral');
const number = numeral(1000);
const formattedNumber = number.format('0,0');
console.log(formattedNumber); // '1,000'
Browser / CDN
To use Numeral.js directly in a browser, you can include it from a CDN like CDNJS. Add the following script tag to your HTML file:
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/numeral.js/2.0.6/numeral.min.js"></script>
This will make the numeral function available globally in your application.
<script>
var myNumber = numeral(1234.56);
var myString = myNumber.format('$0,0.00'); // '$1,234.56'
document.body.innerText = myString;
</script>
Bower
For projects still using Bower, you can install Numeral.js with the following command:
bower install numeral
