svjs-i18n
A simple ES6 module to support internationalisation of JavaScript UIs.
Usage example
const i18n = new I18n({locale: "de"})
i18n.load({
de: {
"myname": "Mein Name ist $2, $1 $2"
},
en: {
"myname": "My name is $2, $1 $2"
}
})
const translation = i18n.t("myname", "James", "Bond")
Test.assertEquals("Mein Name ist Bond, James Bond", translation) You can set the locale via configuration
const i18n = new I18n({locale: "de"})In case the locale option is not given, the language attribute given for the html tag will be used:
<html lang="de">If that lang attribute is also missing,
it will try to use the locale specified by the browser.
Load language file
You can load the dictionary from external json files:
const i18n = new I18n("de")
i18n.load({
de: "translations-de.json",
en: "translations-en.json"
}).then(() => {
Test.assertEquals("Haus", i18n.t("house"))
Test.assertEquals("Hallo", i18n.t("hello"))
i18n.locale = "en"
Test.assertEquals("House", i18n.t("house"))
Test.assertEquals("Hello", i18n.t("hello"))
})Add multiple dictionaries
You can add multiple dictionaries. All dictionaries are added. Same keys will be overwritten.
i18n.load({
de: "translations-de.json"
}.then(() => {
i18n.load({
de: {
"house": "Haus"
}
})
i18n.load({
en: {
"house": "House"
}
})
i18n.load({
en: {
"house": "My House"
}
})
Test.assertEquals("My House", i18n.t("house"))
}))
