fitbit-i18n

Simple translation module for fitbit apps

Installation

npm install fitbit-i18n

Translation files

You should create a translation file in resources\i18n for every locale you want to support.

The module will read the locale language from the Fitbit user settings and will look for a file named [locale].json in the resources\i18n folder (e.g. resources\i18n\fr-FR.json)

If the file doesn't exist, it will look for the file named with the 2 first characters of the locale (e.g. resources\i18n\fr.json). This permits to have a unique file for all the countries with the same language (fr-be, fr-ca, fr-fr, ...)

Then the module will also try to load the fallback translations in the en.json file.

Example, fr-fr.json could contain :

	{
		"SUNDAY": "DIMANCHE",
		"MONDAY": "LUNDI",
		"TUESDAY": "MARDI",
		"WEDNESDAY": "MERCREDI",
		"THURDSAY": "JEUDI",
		"FRIDAY": "VENDREDI",
		"SATURDAY": "SAMEDI"
	}

Usage

Simply import and use the module like that :

	import { __ } from  'fitbit-i18n'
	let translated = __('SUNDAY')  // DIMANCHE if the locale is fr-FR

If the SUNDAY key is found in the default language translation file => perfect. If not, the module uses the translation from the fallback file. If it is still not present, the key will be used.
