i18n Tagged Template Literals - Babel Plugin Build Status npm version

NPM

i18n Tagged Template Literals

Overview

This babel plugin can be used to bake translations into your release build, to add predefined i18n configuration or to add i18n Tag global variables to your output.

The i18n babel plugin can also be used to generate File Module Groups to group your translations by the file-path of the related JavaScript module. This can be very useful to keep track of the translations within your source code.

Features

Installation

$ npm install babel-plugin-i18n-tag-translate --save-dev

Example

In

i18n`Hello ${ name }, you have ${ amount }:c in your bank account.`;

translation.json

{
    "Hello ${0}, you have ${1} in your bank account.": "Sie haben ${1} auf Ihrem Bankkonto, ${0}."
}

Out

i18n`Sie haben ${ amount }:c auf Ihrem Bankkonto, ${ name }.`;

Usage

Via .babelrc (Recommended)

.babelrc

{
  "plugins": [
    ["i18n-tag-translate", {
      "verbose": false, // Disable verbose logging
      "translation": "./translations/translation.de.json",
      "globalImport": true, // Adds import i18n, { i18nConfig, i18nGroup } from "es2015-i18n-tag"; to your modules
      "groupDir": "./src", // Adds file group name to each module. e.g. const __translationGroup = "components/index.js";
      "config": { // Adds i18nConfig({"locale": "en-US", "translations": { "key": "value" }, "number": { ... }, "date": { ... }}); to the output
        "locales": "en-US",
        "translations": { "key": "value" },
        "number": { 
          ...options
          // https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/NumberFormat#Parameters
        },
        "date": { 
          ...options
          // https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/DateTimeFormat#Parameters
        }
      }  
    }]
  ]
}

Note: You need to include es2015-i18n-tag in your exported script for i18n runtime support. You can do this in the entry point of your javascript application or set globalImport flag to true.

Via Node API

require("babel-core").transform("code", {
  plugins: [
    ["i18n-tag-translate", {
      "translation": "./translations/translation.de.json"      
    }]
  ]
});

Via Gulp

const gulp = require('gulp')
const sourcemaps = require('gulp-sourcemaps')
const source = require('vinyl-source-stream')
const buffer = require('vinyl-buffer')
const browserify = require('browserify')

gulp.task('build-release-de', () => {
  // build a german release
  browserify('./src/index.js').transform('babelify', {
    'presets': [
      'es2015',
      'stage-0'
    ],
    'plugins': [
      ['i18n-tag-translate', {
        'translation': './translations/translation.de.json'
      }]
    ]
  }).bundle()
    .on('error', function (err) { console.error(err); this.emit('end'); })
    .pipe(source('bundle.js'))
    .pipe(buffer())
    .pipe(sourcemaps.init({ loadMaps: true }))
    .pipe(sourcemaps.write('./'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'))
})
