Adding Thousand Separator to Int in Swift
You can use NSNumberFormatter to specify a different grouping separator as follow:
update: Xcode 11.5 • Swift 5.2
extension Formatter {
static let withSeparator: NumberFormatter = {
let formatter = NumberFormatter()
formatter.numberStyle = .decimal
formatter.groupingSeparator = " "
return formatter
}()
}
extension Numeric {
var formattedWithSeparator: String { Formatter.withSeparator.string(for: self) ?? "" }
}
2358000.formattedWithSeparator // "2 358 000"
2358000.99.formattedWithSeparator // "2 358 000.99"
let int = 2358000
let intFormatted = int.formattedWithSeparator // "2 358 000"
let decimal: Decimal = 2358000
let decimalFormatted = decimal.formattedWithSeparator // "2 358 000"
let decimalWithFractionalDigits: Decimal = 2358000.99
let decimalWithFractionalDigitsFormatted = decimalWithFractionalDigits.formattedWithSeparator // "2 358 000.99"
If you need to display your value as currency with current locale or with a fixed locale:
extension Formatter {
static let number = NumberFormatter()
}
extension Locale {
static let englishUS: Locale = .init(identifier: "en_US")
static let frenchFR: Locale = .init(identifier: "fr_FR")
static let portugueseBR: Locale = .init(identifier: "pt_BR")
// ... and so on
}
extension Numeric {
func formatted(with groupingSeparator: String? = nil, style: NumberFormatter.Style, locale: Locale = .current) -> String {
Formatter.number.locale = locale
Formatter.number.numberStyle = style
if let groupingSeparator = groupingSeparator {
Formatter.number.groupingSeparator = groupingSeparator
}
return Formatter.number.string(for: self) ?? ""
}
// Localized
var currency: String { formatted(style: .currency) }
// Fixed locales
var currencyUS: String { formatted(style: .currency, locale: .englishUS) }
var currencyFR: String { formatted(style: .currency, locale: .frenchFR) }
var currencyBR: String { formatted(style: .currency, locale: .portugueseBR) }
// ... and so on
var calculator: String { formatted(groupingSeparator: " ", style: .decimal) }
}
Usage:
1234.99.currency // "$1,234.99"
1234.99.currencyUS // "$1,234.99"
1234.99.currencyFR // "1 234,99 €"
1234.99.currencyBR // "R$ 1.234,99"
1234.99.calculator // "1 234.99"
Note: If you would like to have a space with the same width of a period you can use "\u{2008}"
unicode spaces
formatter.groupingSeparator = "\u{2008}"
You want to use NSNumberFormatter
:
let fmt = NSNumberFormatter()
fmt.numberStyle = .DecimalStyle
fmt.stringFromNumber(2358000) // with my locale, "2,358,000"
fmt.locale = NSLocale(localeIdentifier: "fr_FR")
fmt.stringFromNumber(2358000) // "2 358 000"
