Yii2: Ability to set currency symbol in formatter do not working

[Fisher-mast]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I'm configure my frontend/config/main.php:

'language' => 'ru-RU',
    'components' => [
        ...
        'formatter' => [
            'dateFormat' => 'dd.MM.yyyy',
            'decimalSeparator' => ',',
            'thousandSeparator' => ' ',
            'currencyCode' => 'RUB',
            'numberFormatterOptions' => [
                NumberFormatter::MIN_FRACTION_DIGITS => 0,
                NumberFormatter::MAX_FRACTION_DIGITS => 2,
            ],
            'numberFormatterSymbols' => [
                NumberFormatter::CURRENCY_SYMBOL => '₽',
            ]
        ],
    ],

What is the expected result?

When i writting

<?= Yii::$app->formatter->asCurrency(100000) ?>

i expect to see 100 000 ₽ (my symbol)

What do you get instead?

but i get 100 000,00 руб.

Additional info

When i setting parameter numberFormatterSymbols, parameter numberFormatterOptions not working after (before result was 100 000 руб.)

@samdark is the issue verified?

[samdark]

No, not yet.

[samdark]

@Fisher-mast can you run the following in your environment?

$formatter = new NumberFormatter('ru_RU', NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
$formatter->setSymbol(NumberFormatter::CURRENCY_SYMBOL, 'RUR1');
echo $formatter->formatCurrency(123, 'RUR');

[Fisher-mast]

@samdark sure,
result
123,00 р.

[samdark]

Means your ICU version ignores setting currency symbol. I haven't found which versions are affected and if PHP version matters but I have the same issue reproduced at https://3v4l.org/7pPWr

[samdark]

@Fisher-mast one more thing to check. ICU version:

echo defined('INTL_ICU_VERSION') ? INTL_ICU_VERSION : 'no ICU';

[samdark]

Here's what I've found so far:

• 58.2 — works
• 58.1 — works
• 57.1 — works
• 56.1 — works
• 55.1 — does not work
• 54.1 — does not work
• 52.1 — does not work
• 51.2 — does not work
• 49.1.2 — does not work
• 4.8.1.1 — does not work

[Fisher-mast]

@samdark yep my version is 52.1

[Fisher-mast]

@samdark updated my icu to 58.2 version and CURRENCY SYMBOL working perfectly. But value NumberFormatter::MIN_FRACTION_DIGITS => 0 still igroring (somebody created new issue about this https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/issues/13768).
If someone do not know how update ICU on php 7.0 - here tutor:

sudo su

Install ICU

wget http://download.icu-project.org/files/icu4c/58.2/icu4c-58_2-src.tgz
tar zxvf icu4c-58_2-src.tgz
cd icu/source
./configure --prefix=/opt/icu5c && make && make install

Install intl.so from php source

cd ../..
wget https://github.com/php/php-src/archive/php-7.0.15.tar.gz
tar -xvf php-7.0.15.tar.gz
cd php-src-php-7.0.15/ext/intl

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/icu5c/lib
phpize
./configure --enable-intl --with-icu-dir=/opt/icu5c
make
make install

Activate extension (cli and fpm)

echo "extension=intl.so" > /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/intl.ini
ln -s /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/intl.ini /etc/php/7.0/cli/conf.d/20-intl.ini
ln -s /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/intl.ini /etc/php/7.0/fpm/conf.d/20-intl.ini

You should not set 'currencyCode' => 'RUB', then it will be well done.

yep, setting currencyCode will override the symbol.

Sorry, a little out of topic, but, I want to set my thousand (.) and decimal (,) separator in my currency (example: Rp 12.500,50). My formatter code:

        'formatter' => [
            'defaultTimeZone' => 'UTC',
            'timeZone' => 'Asia/Jakarta',
            'dateFormat' => 'php:d-m-Y',
            'datetimeFormat' => 'php:d-M-Y H:i:s',
            'decimalSeparator' => ',',
            'thousandSeparator' => '.',
            'currencyCode' => 'Rp ',
            'numberFormatterOptions' => [
                NumberFormatter::MIN_FRACTION_DIGITS => 0,
                NumberFormatter::MAX_FRACTION_DIGITS => 2,
            ],
        ],

The output is Rp 12.500.50 <- decimal is .
I'm expecting Rp 12.500,50 <- decimal is ,

What went wrong?
Thanks.

I am using Amazon Linux Image ( based on Centos 7) and can't find new version of ICU for my Linux version.The latest version available is ICU50.
Any workaround for this ?

[edarede]

Hi.
I am using yii en local machine.
I have an error:

Invalid Configuration – yii\base\InvalidConfigException
The default currency code for the formatter is not defined and the php intl extension is not installed which could take the default currency from the locale.

cannot resolve. please helpme whit this error.
tk.

[samdark]

Well, install intl extension.

[dicrtarasov]

You can configure property currencyCode of Formatter component in app config:
https://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/2.0/yii-i18n-formatter#$currencyCode-detail

..or just install php-intl extension package.
