You can only add objects that share the same currency. The function also normalizes objects to the same scale (the highest) before adding them up.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Required
augend	Dinero<TAmount>	The Dinero object to add to.	Yes
addend	Dinero<TAmount>	The Dinero object to add.	Yes

Code examples

Add objects

import { dinero, add } from 'dinero.js';
import { USD } from '@dinero.js/currencies';

const d1 = dinero({ amount: 500, currency: USD });
const d2 = dinero({ amount: 100, currency: USD });

add(d1, d2); // a Dinero object with amount 600

Add objects with a different scale

import { dinero, add } from 'dinero.js';
import { USD } from '@dinero.js/currencies';

const d1 = dinero({ amount: 400, currency: USD });
const d2 = dinero({ amount: 104545, currency: USD, scale: 4 });

add(d1, d2); // a Dinero object with amount 144545 and scale 4

Add more than two objects

To retrieve the sum of multiple objects, you can call the add function multiple times.

import { dinero, add } from 'dinero.js';
import { USD } from '@dinero.js/currencies';

const d1 = dinero({ amount: 300, currency: USD });
const d2 = dinero({ amount: 200, currency: USD });
const d3 = dinero({ amount: 100, currency: USD });

const addMany = (addends) => addends.reduce(add);

addMany([d1, d2, d3]); // a Dinero object with amount 600
