Convertor can handle a wide range of unit types including: Length, Area, Volume, Weight, Speed, Rotation, Temperature, Pressure, Time, Energy/Power

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

Either run

```
php composer.phar require --prefer-dist ak868308/yii2-unitconverter "*"

```

or add

```
"ak868308/yii2-unitconverter": "*"

```

to the require section of your `composer.json` file.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Once the extension is installed, initialize your component, add the following line in config/main.php

```
'components' => [
    'unitconverter' => [
         'class' => '\ak868308\unitconverter\UnitConverter'
    ]
]

```

Finally you are very close to use, simply use it in your code by :

```

```

Using another file somewhere in the project:

```

```

Using the name of the file in config:

```
```

```

Define own units inline:

```
$arr = [
     "m" => array("base" => "m", "conversion" => 1),
     "km" => array("base" => "m", "conversion" => 1000),
];

```

Currently two Unit files are available - one containing the owner's notation and the other one a more formal notation. Differences in notation: Variant km² kg/m² FileName owner 'km2' - BaseUnits.php formal 'km**2' 'kg m**-2' Units.php

Additionally the Units.php file contains area-density definitions.
