    Function formatBytes

    • Format a byte count as a short, human-readable size string using binary (1024-based) units. Used by the settings panel to show how much storage the caches and price history occupy.

      Parameters

      • bytes: number

        The number of bytes.

      Returns string

      A compact size string such as "0 B", "1.5 KB", or "2.3 MB".

      formatBytes(0);       // => "0 B"
      formatBytes(1536); // => "1.5 KB"
      formatBytes(2411724); // => "2.3 MB"
      export function formatBytes(bytes: number): string {
      if (!Number.isFinite(bytes) || bytes <= 0) {
      return '0 B';
      }
      const units = ['B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB'];
      const exponent = Math.min(Math.floor(Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(1024)), units.length - 1);
      const value = bytes / Math.pow(1024, exponent);
      const formatted = exponent === 0 ? String(value) : value.toFixed(1);
      return `${formatted} ${units[exponent]}`;
      }
