function getReadableFileSizeString(fileSizeInBytes) {
    var i = -1;

This is size improvement of mpen answer

function humanFileSize(bytes, si=false) {
  let u, b=bytes, t= si ? 1000 : 1024;     
  ['', si?'k':'K', ...'MGTPEZY'].find(x=> (u=x, b/=t, b**2<1));
  return `${u ? (t*b).toFixed(1) : bytes} ${u}${!si && u ? 'i':''}B`;    
}

function humanFileSize(bytes, si=false) {
  let u, b=bytes, t= si ? 1000 : 1024;     
  ['', si?'k':'K', ...'MGTPEZY'].find(x=> (u=x, b/=t, b**2<1));
  return `${u ? (t*b).toFixed(1) : bytes} ${u}${!si && u ? 'i':''}B`;    
}


// TEST
console.log(humanFileSize(5000));      // 4.9 KiB
console.log(humanFileSize(5000,true)); // 5.0 kB
