Meteor Intl

This library provides Meteor helpers for internationalization. The helpers provide a declarative way to format dates, numbers, and string messages with pluralization support.

Overview

Meteor Intl is an unofficial rewrite of Handlebar Intl using FormatJS

Features

• Display numbers with separators.
• Display dates and times correctly.
• Display dates relative to "now".
• Pluralize labels in strings.
• Support for 200+ languages.
• Runs in the browser and Node.js.
• Built on standards.

Example

There are many examples on the website, but here's a comprehensive one:

<template name="page">
  {{formatMessage intlName='messages.post.meta' num=0}}
  {{formatNumber 1000 style="currency" currency="USD"}}
</template>

Template.layout.onCreated(function() {
  this.data.intl = {
    locales: ['en-US'],
    messages: {}
  }
});

Template.page.onCreated(function() {
  this.data.intl.messages.post = {
    meta: 'You have {num, plural, =0{no comment} one{# comment} other{# comments}}'
  };
});

This example would render: "You have no comment $1,000.00" to the html variable. The post.meta message is written in the industry standard ICU Message syntax, which you can also learn about on the FormatJS website.
