试试这个:

function leftPad(number) {
    return (number < 9) ? '0' + number : number;
}

// Call it like this
var month = 3;
month = leftPad(month); // Output: month=04

现在是2014年，我建议使用JavaScript字符串填充函数。哈!

基本的:带空格的右垫

function pad (str, length) {
    var padding = (new Array(Math.max(length - str.length + 1, 0))).join(" ");
    return str + padding;
}

花式:选项垫

/**
 * @param {*}       str                         Input string, or any other type (will be converted to string)
 * @param {number}  length                      Desired length to pad the string to
 * @param {Object}  [opts]
 * @param {string}  [opts.padWith=" "]          Character to use for padding
 * @param {boolean} [opts.padLeft=false]        Whether to pad on the left
 * @param {boolean} [opts.collapseEmpty=false]  Whether to return an empty string if the input was empty
 * @returns {string}
 */
function pad(str, length, opts) {
    var padding = (new Array(Math.max(length - (str + "").length + 1, 0))).join(opts && opts.padWith || " "),
        collapse = opts && opts.collapseEmpty && !(str + "").length;
    return collapse ? "" : opts && opts.padLeft ? padding + str : str + padding;
}

使用(的):

pad("123", 5);
// Returns "123  "

pad(123, 5);
// Returns "123  " - non-string input

pad("123", 5, { padWith: "0", padLeft: true });
// Returns "00123"

pad("", 5);
// Returns "     "

pad("", 5, { collapseEmpty: true });
// Returns ""

pad("1234567", 5);
// Returns "1234567"

下面是一个JavaScript函数，它使用自定义符号添加指定数量的填充。该函数接受三个参数。

padMe --> string or number to left pad
pads  --> number of pads
padSymble --> custom symbol, default is "0"

function leftPad(padMe, pads, padSymble) {
    if(typeof padMe === "undefined") {
        padMe = "";
    }
    if (typeof pads === "undefined") {
        pads = 0;
    }
    if (typeof padSymble === "undefined") {
        padSymble = "0";
    }

    var symble = "";
    var result = [];
    for(var i=0; i < pads; i++) {
       symble += padSymble;
    }
    var length = symble.length - padMe.toString().length;
    result = symble.substring(0, length);
    return result.concat(padMe.toString());
}

以下是一些结果:

> leftPad(1)
"1"

> leftPad(1, 4)
"0001"

> leftPad(1, 4, "0")
"0001"

> leftPad(1, 4, "@")
"@@@1"

有点晚了，但我还是想分享一下。我发现向Object添加一个原型扩展很有用。这样我就可以填充数字和字符串，向左或向右。我有一个模块与类似的实用程序，我包括在我的脚本。

// include the module in your script, there is no need to export
var jsAddOns = require('<path to module>/jsAddOns');

~~~~~~~~~~~~ jsAddOns.js ~~~~~~~~~~~~

/* 
 * method prototype for any Object to pad it's toString()
 * representation with additional characters to the specified length
 *
 * @param padToLength required int
 *     entire length of padded string (original + padding)
 * @param padChar optional char
 *     character to use for padding, default is white space
 * @param padLeft optional boolean
 *     if true padding added to left
 *     if omitted or false, padding added to right
 *
 * @return padded string or
 *     original string if length is >= padToLength
 */
Object.prototype.pad = function(padToLength, padChar, padLeft) {    

    // get the string value
    s = this.toString()

    // default padToLength to 0
    // if omitted, original string is returned
    padToLength = padToLength || 0;

    // default padChar to empty space
    padChar = padChar || ' ';


    // ignore padding if string too long
    if (s.length >= padToLength) {
        return s;
    }

    // create the pad of appropriate length
    var pad = Array(padToLength - s.length).join(padChar);

    // add pad to right or left side
    if (padLeft) {
        return pad  + s;        
    } else {
        return s + pad;
    }
};

这是我使用的一个简单函数。

var pad=function(num,field){
    var n = '' + num;
    var w = n.length;
    var l = field.length;
    var pad = w < l ? l-w : 0;
    return field.substr(0,pad) + n;
};

例如:

pad    (20,'     ');    //   20
pad   (321,'     ');    //  321
pad (12345,'     ');    //12345
pad (   15,'00000');    //00015
pad (  999,'*****');    //**999
pad ('cat','_____');    //__cat  

像PHP:

const STR_PAD_RIGHT = 1;
const STR_PAD_LEFT = 0;
const STR_PAD_BOTH = 2;

/**
 * @see http://php.net/str_pad
 * @param mixed input 
 * @param integer length 
 * @param string string 
 * @param integer type 
 * @return string
 */
function str_pad(input, length, string, type) {
    if (type === undefined || (type !== STR_PAD_LEFT && type !== STR_PAD_BOTH)) {
        type = STR_PAD_RIGHT
    }

    if (input.toString().length >= length) {
         return input;
    } else {
        if (type === STR_PAD_BOTH) {
            input = (string + input + string);
        } else if (type == STR_PAD_LEFT) {
            input = (string + input);
        } else {
            input = (input + string);
        }

        return str_pad(input.toString(), length, string, type);
    }
}
