css-strip-units

css-strip-units

Strip everything but the unit from a CSS value.

strip('1px')
// => 'px'

strip('30.5kHz')
// => 'kHz'

strip(['100%', '99rem', '.25s'])
// => ['%', 'rem', 's']

This module stays future-proof by stripping numbers off the front, so non-existent units are still passed with this module. Use another module to check the validity of units.

To get the number of a CSS value simply use parseFloat or parseInt (it actually works!):

var value = '100px'

// User css-strip-units to get unit:
var unit = strip(value)
// => 'px'

// Use parseFloat to get number:
var number = parseFloat(value)
// => 100

Installation

$ npm install --save css-strip-units
