This Angular project began in 2020 as a hobby dive of mine into Angular/Typescript. _i
It's all about making physical values (like temperature, mass) integrated in development and decently looking in UI.
So far it's not an overall solution but rather a draft of possible framework _b
_i nevertheless i'm since 1990s in IT (from deep backend to far frontend) and for the recent decade my native language has been amazing C#
_b a big challenge asking for countless overlapping concepts and tons of well-tempered code
Just ng build the only library in this project and ng serve the app. Navigate to Units.
Or/and look at commented snapshot of that demo
const theChallengerDeep = meter(10929) // deepest known point in the world ocean
console.log(theChallengerDeep.value) // 10929
console.log(theChallengerDeep.unit === Meter) // true
console.log(theChallengerDeep.unit == Foot) // false
interface State {
hightestElevation: len,
recordHigh: temperature
}
const Alaska: State = { hightestElevation: foot(20310), recordHigh: fahrenheit(100) }
const Bavaria: State = { hightestElevation: meter(2962), recordHigh: celsius(40.3) }Easier than ABC but still "type safe". _u
let bottle = liter(0.5)
const inUkWouldBe = bottle.to(ImperialPint)
const bottle2 = bottle.to() // use to clone
euroBottle.to(Meter) // this won't compile
euroBottle.unit = Liter // this either, even if the same unit_u unit is immutable, since running conversion on it's setter won't be intuitive
UValue exposes its value property that you can set/modify in the usual fashion:
const tempo = milesHour(90); tempo.value -= 20; tempo.value = 30 When it takes more than one UValue this project offers the following syntax sugar: _o
const plane = ton(45.5); const fuel = kilogram(15000); const unusedEquipment = kilogram(15 * 75)
plane.add(fuel).subtract(unusedEquipment) // plane is still in first set tons
const pets = kilogram(186.5)
const cargoTotal = ton(11.5).plus(kilogram(280)).plus(pound(9570)).plus(pets) // also tons
const takeoffWeight = plane.plus(cargoTotal).minus(pets)
// the crew rejected to transport pets cause the cargo bay isn't pressuresized_o Both TS and JS do NOT facilitate overload of arithmetic ops (+, -, *, /). Nevertheless this must be a performance hit and a resulted in unit would be non-obvious
Includes formatting, labeling, parsing, ng-pipe and is worth of a separate report.
Actions can be avaialble through the service.
