money_format

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5, PHP 7)

money_format — Formatea un número como valor monetario

Advertencia

Esta función está OBSOLETA a partir de PHP 7.4.0, y ha sido ELIMINADA a partir de PHP 8.0.0. Depender de esta función está fuertemente desaconsejado.

Descripción

money_format(string $format, float $number): string

money_format() devuelve una versión formateada del número number. Esta función actúa como interfaz con la función strfmon() de la biblioteca C, con la diferencia de que esta implementación solo convierte un número a la vez.

Parámetros

format

El parámetro de formato consta de la siguiente secuencia:

un carácter %
una configuración opcional
un tamaño de campo opcional
una precisión izquierda opcional
una precisión derecha opcional
un carácter de conversión obligatorio

Flags

Se puede utilizar una o más de las siguientes configuraciones:

=f: El carácter = seguido de un byte único f que se utilizará como carácter de relleno. El carácter de relleno predeterminado es espacio.
^: Desactiva el agrupamiento de caracteres (tal como se define en la configuración local).
+ o (: Especifica el estilo de formato para números positivos y negativos. Si se utiliza +, se usarán los equivalentes en la configuración local de + y -. Si se utiliza (, las sumas negativas se colocarán entre paréntesis. Si no se proporciona ninguna especificación, el valor predeterminado es +.
!: Suprime el símbolo monetario en la cadena final.
-: Si se proporciona, esta configuración hace que los campos se justifiquen a la izquierda (rellenados a la derecha), en contraste con la configuración predeterminada que está justificada a la derecha y rellenada a la izquierda.

Tamaño del campo

w: Un número decimal que especifica el tamaño mínimo del campo. El campo se rellenará a la izquierda, a menos que se utilice la configuración -. Por defecto, este valor es 0.

Precisión izquierda

#n

El número máximo de dígitos (n) esperados a la izquierda del separador decimal (por ejemplo, la coma). Esta opción se utiliza generalmente para mantener el alineamiento de columnas de números, utilizando un carácter para rellenar el número si este tiene menos de n dígitos. Si el número real de dígitos es mayor que n, esta especificación se ignora.

Si el agrupamiento no ha sido desactivado mediante la configuración ^, los separadores de agrupamiento se insertarán antes del carácter de relleno (si corresponde). Los separadores no se aplicarán a los caracteres de relleno, incluso si este carácter es un número.

Para garantizar el alineamiento, todos los caracteres que aparecen antes y después del número formateado, como los símbolos monetarios o los signos negativo y positivo, se colocarán en el mismo lugar mediante espacios adicionales, de modo que todos los tamaños de los números sean iguales.

Precisión derecha

.p: Un punto seguido de un número de decimales (p). Si el valor de p es 0 (cero), el separador decimal y los decimales se eliminarán. Si no se especifica ninguna precisión derecha, el valor predeterminado se leerá en la configuración local. El número formateado se redondeará para satisfacer las restricciones de visualización.

Caracteres de conversión

i: El número se formatea según el formato monetario internacional de la configuración local (por ejemplo, para Francia: 1 234,56 F).
n: El número se formatea según el formato monetario nacional (por ejemplo, para la configuración de_DE: EU1.234,56).
%: Devuelve el carácter %.

number

El número a formatear.

Valores devueltos

Devuelve la cadena formateada. Los caracteres antes y después de la cadena formateada se devolverán sin cambios. Un valor no numérico para number devuelve null y emite una advertencia E_WARNING.

Historial de cambios

Versión	Descripción
8.0.0	Esta función ha sido eliminada.

Ejemplos

Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo con money_format()

A continuación se muestran varios ejemplos de uso de la función money_format() con diferentes cadenas de formato y configuraciones locales.

<?php

$number = 1234.56;

// Mostremos este número en formato internacional para en_US
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US');
echo money_format('%i', $number) . "\n";
// USD 1,234.56

// Y en formato nacional italiano con 2 decimales
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'it_IT');
echo money_format('%.2n', $number) . "\n";
// L. 1.234,56

// Uso de un número negativo
$number = -1234.5672;

// Formato nacional de EE.UU., con paréntesis para números negativos
// y 10 dígitos de precisión a la izquierda
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US');
echo money_format('%(#10n', $number) . "\n";
// ($        1,234.57)

// Formato similar al anterior, añadiendo 2 decimales
// para la precisión derecha, y utilizando el carácter de relleno '*'
echo money_format('%=*(#10.2n', $number) . "\n";
// ($********1,234.57)

// Utilicemos ahora la justificación a la izquierda, con un campo de 14 caracteres
// de largo, sin agrupamiento de dígitos, y utilizando el formato internacional
// para de_DE
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'de_DE');
echo money_format('%=*^-14#8.2i', 1234.56) . "\n";
// DEM 1234,56****

// Añadamos aún más al ejemplo anterior
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_GB');
$fmt = 'El valor final es %i (tras un 10 %% de descuento)';
echo money_format($fmt, 1234.56) . "\n";
// El valor final es GBP 1,234.56 (tras un 10 % de descuento)

?>

Notas

Nota:
La función money_format() solo está definida si el sistema tiene capacidades strfmon. Por ejemplo, Windows no las tiene, por lo tanto, money_format() no está definida en Windows.

Nota:
La categoría LC_MONETARY de la configuración local afecta el comportamiento de esta función. Utilice setlocale() para configurar correctamente PHP antes de usar esta función.

For most of us in the US, we don't want to see a "USD" for our currency symbol, so '%i' doesn't cut it.  Here's what I used that worked to get what most  people expect to see for a number format.

$number = 123.4
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US.UTF-8');
money_format('%.2n', $number);

output:
$123.40

That gives me a dollar sign at the beginning, and 2 digits at the end.

In Rafael M. Salvioni function localeconv(); returns an invalid array in my Windows XP SP3 running PHP 5.4.13 so to prevent the Warning Message: implode(): Invalid arguments passed i just add the $locale manually. For other languages just fill the array with the correct settings.

<?

       $locale = array(
        'decimal_point'        => '.',
        'thousands_sep'        => '',
        'int_curr_symbol'    => 'EUR',
        'currency_symbol'    => '€',

If money_format doesn't seem to be working properly, make sure you are defining a valid locale.  For example, on Debian, 'en_US' is not a valid locale - you need 'en_US.UTF-8' or 'en_US.ISO-8559-1'.

This was frustrating me for a while.  Debian has a list of valid locales at /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED; find yours there if it's not working properly.

To drop zero value decimals, use the following:
<?php
    /*
        Same as php number_format(), but if ends in .0, .00, .000, etc... , drops the decimals altogether
        Returns string type, rounded number - same as php number_format()):
        Examples:
            number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.378, 2) ==> '54.38'
            number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.00, 2) ==> '54'
     */
    function number_format_drop_zero_decimals($n, $n_decimals)
    {
        return ((floor($n) == round($n, $n_decimals)) ? number_format($n) : number_format($n, $n_decimals));
    }
?>
Results:
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.377, 2) ==> 54.38
number_format_drop_zero_decimals('54.377', 2) ==> 54.38
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.377, 3) ==> 54.377
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.007, 2) ==> 54.01
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.000, 2) ==> 54
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.00, 2) ==> 54

number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54.1, 2) ==> 54.10
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54., 2) ==> 54
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54, 2) ==> 54
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54, 3) ==> 54
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54 + .13, 2) ==> 54.13
number_format_drop_zero_decimals(54 + .00, 2) ==> 54

Improvement to Rafael M. Salvioni's solution for money_format on Windows: when no currency symbol is selected, in the formatting, the minus sign was also lost when the locale puts it in position 3 or 4. Changed $currency = '';  to: $currency = $cprefix .$csuffix;

Double check that money_format() is defined on any version of PHP you plan your code to run on.  You might be surprised.

For example, it worked on my Linux box where I code, but not on  servers running  BSD 4.11 variants. (This is presumably because strfmon  is not defined - see note at the top of teis page). It's not just a windows/unix issue.

Rafael M. Salvioni's code has a small bug in it when the value is positive and the format provided contains a ( flag.  The value should only be surrounded in parenthesis when the value is negative.  This should fix it:

<?php
    if (!function_exists('money_format'))
    {

Consider formatting currency for some South Asian countries that use ##,##,###.## money format.

The following code generates something like Rs. 4,54,234.00 and so on.



<?php

function convertcash($num, $currency){

    if(strlen($num)>3){

            $lastthree = substr($num, strlen($num)-3, strlen($num));

            $restunits = substr($num, 0, strlen($num)-3); // extracts the last three digits

            $restunits = (strlen($restunits)%2 == 1)?"0".$restunits:$restunits; // explodes the remaining digits in 2's formats, adds a zero in the beginning to maintain the 2's grouping.



            $expunit = str_split($restunits, 2);

            for($i=0; $i<sizeof($expunit); $i++){

                $explrestunits .= (int)$expunit[$i].","; // creates each of the 2's group and adds a comma to the end

            }    



            $thecash = $explrestunits.$lastthree;

    } else {

           $thecash = $convertnum;

    }

    

    return $currency.$thecash.".00"; // writes the final format where $currency is the currency symbol.

}

?>



now call the function as  convertcash($row['price'], 'Rs '); // that's the price from the database I called using an Indian Rupees prefix where the price has to be a plain number format, say something like 454234.

If you get "EUR" instead of the euro symbol, set the locale to utf8 charset like this:

<?php
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'de_DE.utf8');
echo money_format('%+n', 1234.56);
?>

Hi,



For South Asian Currencies, this function could be a handy one.



It will handle negative as well as float(Paise).



<?php

function my_money_format($number)

{

    if(strstr($number,"-"))

    {

        $number = str_replace("-","",$number);

        $negative = "-";

    }

    

    $split_number = @explode(".",$number);

    

    $rupee = $split_number[0];

    $paise = @$split_number[1];

    

    if(@strlen($rupee)>3)

    {

        $hundreds = substr($rupee,strlen($rupee)-3);

        $thousands_in_reverse = strrev(substr($rupee,0,strlen($rupee)-3));

        for($i=0; $i<(strlen($thousands_in_reverse)); $i=$i+2)

        {

            $thousands .= $thousands_in_reverse[$i].$thousands_in_reverse[$i+1].",";

        }

        $thousands = strrev(trim($thousands,","));

        $formatted_rupee = $thousands.",".$hundreds;

        

    }

    else

    {

        $formatted_rupee = $rupee;

    }

    

    if((int)$paise>0)

    {

        $formatted_paise = ".".substr($paise,0,2);

    }

    

    return $negative.$formatted_rupee.$formatted_paise;



}

?>

This is a handy little bit of code I just wrote, as I was not able to find anything else suitable for my situation.

This will handle monetary values that are passed to the script by a user, to reformat any comma use so that it is not broken when it passes through an input validation system that checks for a float.



It is not foolproof, but will handle the common input as most users would input it, such as 1,234,567 (outputs 1234567) or 1,234.00 (outputs 1234.00), even handles 12,34 (outputs 12.34), I expect it would work with negative numbers, but have not tested it, as it is not used for that in my situation.



This worked when other options such as money_format() were not suitable or possible.



<?php

///////////////

// BEGIN CODE convert all price amounts into well formatted values

function converttonum($convertnum,$fieldinput){

        $bits = explode(",",$convertnum); // split input value up to allow checking

        

        $first = strlen($bits[0]); // gets part before first comma (thousands/millions)

        $last = strlen($bits[1]); // gets part after first comma (thousands (or decimals if incorrectly used by user)

        

        if ($last <3){ // checks for comma being used as decimal place

            $convertnum = str_replace(",",".",$convertnum);

        }

        else{ // assume comma is a thousands seperator, so remove it

            $convertnum = str_replace(",","",$convertnum);

        }

        

        $_POST[$fieldinput] = $convertnum; // redefine the vlaue of the variable, to be the new corrected one

}



@converttonum($_POST[inputone],"inputone");

@converttonum($_POST[inputtwo],"inputtwo");

@converttonum($_POST[inputthree],"inputthree");

// END CODE

//////////////



?>



This is suitable for the English usage, it may need tweaking to work with other types.
