Conversions

Utilities for converting data types.

Example:

import { toBoolean } from "@travisspomer/tidbits"

const trueOrFalse: boolean = toBoolean(value)

toBoolean

toBoolean(value: any): boolean

• value: A string or number to be converted to a Boolean. (Or, an existing Boolean will be returned as-is.)
• Returns:
  • true if value is true, 1, or "true" (case- and whitespace-insensitive).
  • false if value is "false" or any falsy value (false, 0, "", null, undefined, NaN).
  • Anything else ("daffodil", 42, {}, etc.) throws an exception.
