chinese-parseint

Parse Chinese numeric strings to integer; also usable for client-side script.

In browsers (front-end JavaScript)

Download chinese-parseint.js.

Usage

<script src="chinese-parseint.js"></script>
<!-- `chinese_parseInt` would be defined. -->
<script>
    console.log(chinese_parseInt('六八九萬')); ///< display 6890000 in console.
</script>

In Node.js

npm install chinese-parseint

Usage

var chinese_parseInt = require('chinese-parseint');
chinese_parseInt('一千零一十'); ///< returns 1010
chinese_parseInt('二十四万二'); ///< returns 242000

Notes

• This does NOT check if the string is semantically right in Chinese. For example, chinese_parseInt('千三萬') returns 10030000 instead of NaN even if '千三萬' is not a right term in Chinese.
• See chinese_parseInt.characters for corresponding numbers of each accepted Chinese character.
• To convert character encodings (such as from Big5 to UTF-8), consider iconv-lite package.
