@qudtlib/core
Advanced tools
Package of qudtlib-js
Provides unit conversion and related functionality for Javascript (Typescript).
Based on the excellent QUDT ontology, available in a js package without any RDF manipulation needed.
This package is a port of qudtlib-java. The major version of this package is the same as that of qudtlib-java
.
This package offers the core functionality, but defines no units/quantitykinds/prefixes. It is meant to be
imported and re-exported by packages providing such data. At the time of this writing, there is only one package
that provides units, @qudtlib/allunits
.
Most users will want to use @qudtlib/allunits
(which re-exports everything in this package).
Qudt
is your friend. All functionality is accessed through static methods of that class. You can explore the API from that starting point.
The main Model classes are:
Unit: encapsulates IRI, label, dimension vector, multiplier/offset, factor units (if any). Descriptions are omitted (create an issue if you want them.)
QuantityKind: IRI, label, applicable units, broader quantity kinds
QuantityValue: value and unit.
Values are always Decimal (from Decimal.js) and there are no convenience methods allowing you to provide other numeric types. This is intentiaonal so as not to mask any conversion problems. You'll be fine. When you need a value, use new Decimal(number|string)
.
All units, quantityKinds and prefixes are avalable as constants (exported by the package providing the units, such as @qudtlib/allunits
):
Units: all units, such as Units.KiloM__PER__SEC
QuantityKinds:: all quantityKinds, such as QuantityKinds.BloodGlucoseLevel
Prefixes: all prefixes, such as Prefixes.Atto
The functionality comprises:
Qudt.convert(...): Convert a value
Qudt.scaleUnit(...): Scale a unit (e.g., make KiloM from M and kilo)
Qudt.unscaleUnit(..): Unscale a unit:
Qudt.unit(...): Get Unit by IRI
Qudt.quantityKind(...): Get QuantityKind by IRI
Qudt.unitFromLocalName(...): Get Unit by local name (i.e., last part of IRI)
Qudt.quantityKindFromLocalName(...): Get QuantityKind by local name (i.e., last part of IRI)
Qudt.derivedUnitsFrom...(...): Get Units by 'factor units', e.g. find N for factors m, kg, and s^-2. Different matching modes available for broader or narrower matching.
Qudt.unitFromLabel(...): Get Unit by label
This project has been developed at the Research Studio Smart Application Technologies in the project ‘BIM-Interoperables Merkmalservice’, funded by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency and Österreichische Bautechnik Veranstaltungs GmbH.
