Humanizer.jvm is an adaptation of the humanizer framework for .Net which is made for the jvm and is written in Kotlin. Humanizer.jvm meets all your jvm needs for manipulating and displaying strings, enums, dates, times, timespans, numbers and quantities.

Humanize date
Extension methods Humanize for Java.Util.Date objects
You can Humanize an instance of Java.Util.Date and get back a string telling how far back or forward in time that is compared to a given date:
val cal = GregorianCalendar()
val dateToUse = GregorianCalendar(2014,Calendar.JANUARY, 5).getTime()
cal.setTime(dateToUse)
cal.add(Calendar.DATE, -1)
cal.getTime().Humanize(dateToUse) => "yesterday"
cal.add(Calendar.HOURS, -2)
cal.getTime.Humanize(dateToUse) => "2 hours ago"
cal.add(Calendar.HOURS, 30)
cal.Humanize(dateToUse) => "tomorrow"
cal.getTime.add(Calendar.HOURS, 2)
cal.getTime().Humanize(dateToUse) => "2 hours from now"Or you can Humanize an instance of Java.Util.Date and get back a string telling how far back or forward in time that is compared to the current date:
val cal = GregorianCalendar()
cal.add(Calendar.DATE, -1)
cal.getTime().Humanize() => "yesterday"
cal.add(Calendar.HOURS, -2)
cal.getTime.Humanize() => "2 hours ago"
cal.add(Calendar.HOURS, 30)
cal.Humanize() => "tomorrow"
cal.getTime.add(Calendar.HOURS, 2)
cal.getTime().Humanize() => "2 hours from now"Milliseconds to timespan
Extension method millisecondsToTimespan for Int and Long objects
Since difference between dates are returned as milliseconds this method turns them into a readable form/ This is a naive implementation and does not account for leapseconds, this is the nature of this method. By default the milliseconds precision is turned off but you can add it by passing true.
1.milliSecondsToTimespan() => "0 seconds"
1.milliSecondsToTimespan(true) => "0 seconds and 1 millisecond"
99999999.milliSecondsToTimespan() => "1 day and 3 hours and 46 minutes and 39 seconds"
99999999.milliSecondsToTimespan(true) => "1 day and 3 hours and 46 minutes and 39 seconds and 999 milliseconds"Ordinalize
Extension method Ordinalize for Int objects
You can Ordinalize an instance of Int and get back a string with the ordinalized number:
var num = 1
num.ordinalize() => "1st"
num = 100
num.ordinalize() => "100th"Extension method Ordinalize for String objects
You can Ordinalize an instance of String and get back a string with the ordinalized number:
var num = "1"
num.ordinalize() => "1st"
num = "100"
num.ordinalize() => "100th"Truncate
Extension method truncate for String objects
You can Truncate an instance of String and get back a string truncated with … at the end if needed:
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10) => "a"
t = "longer text then the length"
t.truncate(4) => "long…"Extension method truncate for String objects with Truncator option
You can Truncate an instance of String and get back a string truncated with … at the end if needed:
Truncator Enum
* FixedLength = counts all characters
* FixedNumberOfCharacters = counts only letters and digits
* FixedNumberOfWords = counts the words by splitting on whitespace.
FixedLength
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10, truncator = Truncator.FixedLength) => "a"
t = "longer text then the length"
t.truncate(4, truncator = Truncator.FixedLength) => "long…"FixedNumberOfCharacters
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10, truncator = Truncator.FixedNumberOfCharacters) => "a"
t = "Text with more characters than truncate length"
t.truncate(10, truncator = Truncator.FixedNumberOfCharacters) => "Text with m…"FixedNumberOfWords
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10, truncator = Truncator.FixedNumberOfWords) => "a"
t = "Text with more words than truncate length"
t.truncate(4, truncator = Truncator.FixedNumberOfWords) => "Text with more words…"Extension method truncate for String objects with TruncatorString option
You can Truncate an instance of String and get back a string truncated with a custom string at the end if needed:
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10, truncationString = "...") => "a"
t = "Text with more words than truncate length"
t.truncate(10, truncationsString = "...") => "Text wi..."Extension method truncate for String objects with TruncatorString option
You can Truncate an instance of String and get back a string truncated from the left:
var t = "a"
t.truncate(10, truncateFrom = TruncateFrom.Left) => "a"
t = "Text with more words than truncate length"
t.truncate(10, truncateFrom = TruncateFrom.Left) => "…te length"Or you can use a combination of the above parameters length, truncationString, truncator, truncateFrom.
