@spec grammar(Cldr.Unit.t(), Keyword.t()) ::
  grammar_list() | {grammar_list(), grammar_list()}

Traverses the components of a unit and resolves a list of base units with their gramatical case and plural selector definitions for a given locale.

This function relies upon the internal representation of units and grammatical features and is primarily for the support of formatting a function through Cldr.Unit.to_string/2.

Arguments

• unit is a Cldr.Unit.t/0 or a binary unit string

Options

• :locale is any valid locale name returned by Cldr.known_locale_names/1 or a t:Cldr.LanguageTag struct. The default is Cldr.get_locale/0

• backend is any module that includes use Cldr and therefore is a Cldr backend module. The default is Cldr.default_backend!/0.

Returns

Examples

@spec to_iolist(list_or_number :: Cldr.Unit.value() | Cldr.Unit.t() | [Cldr.Unit.t()]) ::
  {:ok, String.t()} | {:error, {atom(), binary()}}

Formats a number into an iolist according to a unit definition for the current process's locale and backend.

See Cldr.Unit.Format.to_iolist/3 for full details.

Arguments

• list_or_unit is any number (integer, float or Decimal) or a Cldr.Unit.t/0 struct or a list of Cldr.Unit.t/0 structs or a Cldr.Unit.Range.t/0 struct.

• :locale is any valid locale name returned by Cldr.known_locale_names/0 or a Cldr.LanguageTag struct. The default is Cldr.get_locale/0

• :style is one of those returned by Cldr.Unit.available_styles. The current styles are :long, :short and :narrow. The default is style: :long

• :grammatical_case indicates that a localisation for the given locale and given grammatical case should be used. See Cldr.Unit.known_grammatical_cases/0 for the list of known grammatical cases. Note that not all locales define all cases. However all locales do define the :nominative case, which is also the default.

• :gender indicates that a localisation for the given locale and given grammatical gender should be used. See Cldr.Unit.known_grammatical_genders/0 for the list of known grammatical genders. Note that not all locales define all genders.

• Any other options are passed to Cldr.Number.to_string/2 which is used to format the number

Returns

• {:ok, io_list} or

• {:error, {exception, message}}

Examples

iex> Cldr.Unit.Format.to_iolist Cldr.Unit.new!(:gallon, 123)
{:ok, ["123", " gallons"]}
