Snapshot summary built from the project's own GitHub metadata — there's no written TopGit review yet. The page will update automatically when a full review is published.
WHY NO REVIEW YET
TopGit writes full reviews for the most-starred, most-requested repositories. This page is a snapshot until then — see the READ ME tab for the original README in full.
The language code MUST be right before the file extension.
The Default I18n instance will try to load locale files from ./locales directory.
Use the Tr package-level function to translate a text based on the given language code. Use the GetMessage function to translate a text based on the incoming http.Request. Use the Router function to wrap an http.Handler (i.e an http.ServeMux) to set the language based on path prefix such as /zh-CN/some-path and subdomains such as zh.domain.comwithout the requirement of different routes per language.
Let's take a look at the simplest usage of this package.
Using template variables & functions as values in your locale value entry via LoaderConfig.
We are going to use a 3rd-party package for plural and singular words. Note that this is only for english dictionary, but you can use the "current"Locale and make a map with dictionaries to pluralize words based on the given language.
Before we get started, install the necessary packages:
$ go get github.com/kataras/i18n@master
$ go get github.com/gertd/go-pluralize@master
Let's create two simple translation files for our example. The ./locales/en-US/welcome.yml and ./locales/el-GR/welcome.yml respectfully:
Dog: "dog"
HiDogs: Hi {{plural (tr "Dog") .count }}
The tr template function is a builtin function registered per locale. It returns the key's translated value. E.g. on english file the tr "Dog" returns the Dog:'s value: "dog" and on greek file it returns "σκυλί". This function helps importing a key to another key to complete a sentence.
Now, create a main.go file and store the following contents:
