Good to know

• Generic is a special case, this unit type contains all units that cannot be converted and should be used as is.
• All units displayed in the table can be converted to any other unit within their unit type.
• New units & unit types can be added, provided the correct conversion rules are implemented.

Formula

Fields are calculated and validation from formulas. A formula consists of 3 parts:

1. source: the lefthand value in the operation
2. operator: the operator to use
3. target: the righthand side in the operation

The source and target can be a new formula as well, allowing the recursive nesting of formulas.

Formula segment

The source and target properties are formula segments. They can contain 1 of 4 things:

1. a value: concrete value to use in the calculcations/validations
2. a field ID: a unique key that maps to a field provided in the fields map (see calculcation below)
3. a formula: a nested formula that results in a value
4. a datalist: an object containing info to map to a value provided in the datalistItems property

Available operators

Operations are always converted to a formula with a left- and righthand side.

E.g.:

10^3

will be seen as

10 POW 3

These operators are available:

• ABS: calculcate absolute value
• ADD: add the target to the source
• DIVIDE: divide the source by the target
• MAX: return the highest value between the source and the target
• MIN: return the lowest value between the source and the target
• MODULUS: return the remainder after dividing the source by the target
• MULTIPLY: multiply the source with the target
• NOPE: ignore this operation, return the source
• POW: exponentiate the source with the target
• ROUND: round the source to the number of decimal places as defined by the target (negative values get rounded to the left of the decimal point)
• SUBTRACT: subtract the target from the source

Examples

Simple division:

{
  "source": {
    "value": 10
  },
  "operator": "DIVIDE",
  "target": {
    "value": 5
  }
}

Would translate to:

10 / 5

Power:

Formula:

{
  "source": {
    "value": 15
  },
  "operator": "POW",
  "target": {
    "value": 2
  }
}

Would translate to:

15^2

Nested formula:

{
  "source": [
    {
      "source": {
        "value": 15
      },
      "operator": "POW",
      "target": {
        "value": 2
      }
    }
  ],
  "operator": "SUBTRACT",
  "target": [
    {
      "source": [
        {
          "source": {
            "value": 3
          },
          "operator": "MULTIPLY",
          "target": {
            "value": 0.9
          }
        }
      ],
      "operator": "ROUND",
      "target": {
        "value": 2
      }
    }
  ]
}

Would translate to:

15^2 - ROUND(3 * 0.9, 2)

Validation rules

Validation rules follow the same syntax and rules as the calculation formulas. Instead of an operator, they use a comparator.

E.g.:

{
  "source": {
    "value": 25
  },
  "comparator": "LTE",
  "target": {
    "value": 99
  }
}

Available comparators

• EQ: resolve if source is equal to target
• GT: resolve if source is greater than target
• GTE: resolve if source is greater than or equal to target
• IN: resolve if source is included in target (list)
• LT: resolve if source is less than target
• LTE: resolve if source is less than or equal to target
• NE: resolve if source is not equal to target
• NIN: resolve if source is not included in target (list)

Field Calculator

The FieldCalculator is used to calculcate a field value from a provided formula and values map.

It exposes 3 methods:

mapOperation

Provided an operator, return a function to run the operation on a source and target. Used internally to map operators to operation methods.

const operator = FieldCalculator.mapOperation("SUBTRACT");

return operator(2, 5); // return value: 7

mapValue

Provided a field, formula segment (e.g. source) and fields map, return the resulting value. Used internally in the calculcate method to allow recursive calculcation.

const field = { code: "FIELD", nominalValue: 2.4 };
const segment = {
  source: {
    value: 4
  },
  operator: "MULTIPLY",
  target: {
    fieldId: "TARGET_FIELD"
  }
};
const fields: {
  TARGET_FIELD: {
    currentValue: 0.3
  }
};

const value = FieldCalculator.mapValue(field, segment, fields); // return value: 1.2

calculcate

Provided a field, formula and fields map, return the calculcated value.

const field = { code: "FIELD", nominalValue: 2.4 };
const formula = {
  source: [{
    source: {
      value: 4
    },
    operator: "MULTIPLY",
    target: {
      fieldId: "TARGET_FIELD"
    }
  }],
  operator: ROUND,
  target: {
    value: 2
  }
};
const fields: {
  TARGET_FIELD: {
    currentValue: 0.3
  }
};

const value = FieldCalculator.calculate(field, formula, fields); // return value: 1.20

Field Validator

The FieldValidator is used to validate a field value from a provided validation rule and values map.

It exposes 3 methods:

mapComparator

Provided an comparator, return a function to run the comparison on a source and target. Used internally to map comparators to comparison methods.

const comparator = FieldValidator.mapComparator("EQ");

return comparator(2, 5); // return value: false

mapValue

Provided a formula segment (e.g. source) and fields map, return the resulting value. Used internally in the validate method to allow recursive validation.

const segment = {
  fieldId: "TARGET_FIELD"
};
const fields: {
  TARGET_FIELD: {
    currentValue: 9
  }
};

const value = FieldCalculator.mapValue(segment, fields); // return value: 9

validate

Provided a field, validation rule and fields map, return the resulting valid state.

const field = { code: "FIELD", nominalValue: 2.4 };
const validation = {
  source: {
    value: 4
  },
  comparator: "GTE",
  target: {
    fieldId: "TARGET_FIELD"
  }
};
const fields: {
  TARGET_FIELD: {
    currentValue: 0.3
  }
};

const value = FieldValidator.validate(field, validation, fields); // return value: true

Unit Converter

The unitConverter is capable of converting a value between the known units of a unit type, as well as returning available unit types and units based on a provided unit.

Definitions

Each unit type (measure) has defined a conversion rule for each of its units. Based on these conversion rules, values can be converted from one unit to another.

A unit conversion definition can define units for multiple systems (e.g.: SI, US). For each system, a base unit is defined, providing a ratio to be used for conversion between systems.

E.g.:

const length: IUnitConversionDefinition = {
  metric: {
    mm: {
      name: {
        singular: 'Millimeter',
        plural: 'Millimeters',
      },
      baseUnitFactor: 1 / 1000,
    },
    m: {
        name: {
        singular: 'Meter',
        plural: 'Meters',
        },
        baseUnitFactor: 1,
    }
  },
  imperial: {
    ft: {
      name: {
        singular: 'Foot',
        plural: 'Feet',
      },
      baseUnitFactor: 1,
    },
  }
  baseUnits: {
    metric: {
      unit: 'm',
      ratio: 3.2808399,
  },
  imperial: {
      unit: 'ft',
      ratio: 0.3048,
    },
  }
};
