=== Bytes Processor
2020-03-18 08:07:49 -04:00
Converts a human readable byte value (e.g. 1kb) to its value in bytes (e.g. 1024). If the field is an array of strings, all members of the array will be converted.
2018-12-20 08:04:54 -05:00
Supported human readable units are "b", "kb", "mb", "gb", "tb", "pb" case insensitive. An error will occur if
the field is not a supported format or resultant value exceeds 2^63.
