Is there an option to display in bits instead of bytes?

Yes, there is. According to the README, the bits option allows you to format the number as bits instead of bytes.

Option details:

• Type: boolean
• Default: false

Example usage:

import prettyBytes from 'pretty-bytes';

prettyBytes(1337, {bits: true});
//=> '1.34 kbit'

This option is useful when referring to bit rates or other bit-based measurements. When enabled, the output will use "kbit" (kilobit), "Mbit" (megabit), etc. instead of the byte-based units like "kB" or "MB".
