Conversions between units of measure that are based on bytes (like kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, and words).

t's are created with of_bytes_float_exn, of_words_float_exn, of_kilobytes, of_megabytes, etc.

Note: in this module, kilobytes, Megabytes, etc. are defined as powers of 1024:

  • 1 kilobyte: 2^10 = 1024 bytes
  • 1 Megabyte: 2^20 = 1024^2 bytes
  • 1 Gigabyte: 2^30 = 1024^3 bytes
  • 1 Terabyte: 2^40 = 1024^4 bytes
  • 1 Petabyte: 2^50 = 1024^5 bytes
  • 1 Exabyte: 2^60 = 1024^6 bytes

val ascending : t -> t -> int

ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.

val descending : t -> t -> int
val between : t -> low:t -> high:t -> bool

between t ~low ~high means low <= t <= high

val clamp_exn : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t

clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.

Raises if not (min <= max).

val of_string : string -> t

val of_bytes : Base.Float.t -> t

This is a deprecated alias for of_bytes_float_exn.

  • deprecated [since 2019-01] Use [of_bytes_int], [of_bytes_int63], [of_bytes_int64_exn] or [of_bytes_float_exn] as appropriate.
val of_bytes_int : Base.Int.t -> t
val of_bytes_int63 : Int63.t -> t
val of_bytes_int64_exn : Int64.t -> t

This will raise if and only if the argument can not be represented as a Byte_units.t. Specifically this is if the argument is outside of [-2^62,2^62).

val of_bytes_float_exn : Base.Float.t -> t

This will raise if and only if the argument can not be represented as a Byte_units.t. Specifically this is if the argument is outside of [-2^62,2^62),

val of_kilobytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of kilobytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-2^52,2^52).

val of_megabytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of Megabytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-2^42,2^42).

val of_gigabytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of Gigabytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-2^32,2^32).

val of_terabytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of Terabytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-2^22,2^22).

val of_petabytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of Petabytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-2^12,2^12).

val of_exabytes : Base.Float.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of Exabytes. N.B. This will raise if the value is outside of [-4,4).

val of_words : Base.Float.t -> t

Do not use, consider using of_words_int instead. Alias for of_words_float_exn.

  • deprecated [since 2019-01] Use [of_words_int] or [of_words_float_exn] instead.
val of_words_int : Base.Int.t -> t

create of Byte_units based on the number of machine words.

val of_words_float_exn : Base.Float.t -> t

Create of Byte_units based on the number of machine words. On 64-bit platforms this will raise if the value is outside of [-2^59,2^59). On 32-bit platforms (including JS) this will raise if the value is outside of [-2^60,2^60).

val to_string_hum : t -> Base.String.t

to_string_hum t returns a string representation of t. This will use the largest unit that will not make the translated value be below 1.

For example Byte_units.to_string_hum (Byte_units.of_bytes_int 1000) gives 1000B, but Byte_units.to_string_hum (Byte_units.of_bytes_int 1500) gives 1.46484K.

val to_string_short : t -> Base.String.t
  • deprecated [since 2020-06] Use [Short.to_string] instead.

val bytes : t -> Base.Float.t

This is a deprecated alias for bytes_float.

  • deprecated [since 2019-01] Use [bytes_int_exn], [bytes_int63], [bytes_int64] or [bytes_float] as appropriate.
val bytes_int_exn : t -> Base.Int.t

This will raise if and only if the value of this Byte_units.t can not be represented as an int. This can only happen on platforms where int is less than 63 bits, specifically JS and 32-bit OCaml where this will raise if the number of bytes is outside of [-2^30,2^30).

  • deprecated [since 2019-01] Use [words_int_exn] or [words_float] instead.
val words_int_exn : t -> Base.Int.t
