Broccoli's I18n Lazy Lookup

Summary

Broccoli's I18n Lazy Lookup is made to add support for lazy lookup in Ember I18n. This Broccoli filter is best used with ember-cli-i18n-lazy-lookup.

The concept is to automatically prefix your I18n key using the current file path. To do so, start your translation key by a . and it will replaced by the current file path.

Examples

In controllers and components

within app/controllers/posts/edit.js

nameTranslation: '.name'

it will get converted to:

nameTranslation: 'posts.edit.name'

In templates

within app/templates/posts/edit.hbs

{{t '.save'}}

will get converted to:

{{t 'posts.edit.save'}}

but also app/templates/posts/edit.hbs

{{input author as="select"
    collection="controller.authors"
    selection="controller.post.author"
    optionLabelPath="content.name"
    promptTranslation=".select_author"
  }}

will get converted to:

{{input author as="select"
    collection="controller.authors"
    selection="controller.post.author"
    optionLabelPath="content.name"
    promptTranslation="posts.edit.select_author"
  }}

In partial templates, the prefixing dash will be ignored when generating the translation key, so within app/templates/post/-form.hbs

{{t '.submit'}}

will get converted to:

{{t 'posts.form.submit'}}
