IntegerConverter

The IntegerConverter class allows you to convert arbitrary values into integers using extended conversion rules.

Description

The IntegerConverter class allows you to convert arbitrary values into integers using the following extended conversion rules:

  • Strings are converted to floats, then to integers
  • DateTime: total number of milliseconds since unix epoch
  • Boolean: 1 for True and 0 for False

Static methods

toInteger

Converts a value into an integer or returns 0 when the conversion is not possible.
See LongConverter.toLong,
LongConverter.toLongWithDefault

static int toInteger(value)

  • value: dynamic - value to convert.
  • returns: int - integer value or 0 when the conversion is not supported.

toIntegerWithDefault

Converts a value into an integer or returns a given default value when the conversion is not possible. See LongConverter.toLongWithDefault,
LongConverter.toNullableLong

static int toIntegerWithDefault(value, int defaultValue)

  • value: dynamic - value to convert.
  • defaultValue: int - default value.
  • returns: int - integer value or given default when the conversion is not supported.

toNullableInteger

Converts a value into an integer or returns null when the conversion is not possible. See LongConverter.toNullableLong

static int? toNullableInteger(value)

  • value: dynamic - value to convert.
  • returns: int? - integer value or null when the conversion is not supported.

Examples

var value1 = IntegerConverter.toNullableInteger('ABC'); // Result: null
var value2 = IntegerConverter.toNullableInteger('123.456'); // Result: 123
var value3 = IntegerConverter.toNullableInteger(true); // Result: 1
var value4 = IntegerConverter.toNullableInteger( Date()); // Result: current milliseconds
