i18n locale messages management tool / library for vue-i18n
v2.x or later
is for vue-i18n-next (Vue 3.x)
If you want to use for [email protected] (Vue 2.x), use the v1.x
The big motivation is as follows.
- 😫 Hard to integrate locale messages for localization services
- 😫 Hard to maintain consistency of locale message keys (
eslint-plugin-vue-i18n
need it!) - 🙏 Requested by 3rd vendor tools (
i18n-ally
and etc ...)
npm install --save-dev vue-i18n-locale-message
If you can globally use CLI only, you need -g
option the below command.
npm install -g vue-i18n-locale-message
yarn add -D vue-i18n-locale-message
If you can globally use CLI, you need global
option the below command.
yarn global add vue-i18n-locale-message

- Arguments:
{string} basePath
: The base path that single-file components are located in project{SFCFileInfo[]} files
: The target single-file components information
- Return:
MetaLocaleMessage
Squeeze the meta of locale messages from i18n custom block at single-file components.
In about structure of the meta information that is returned with this function, You can see the here.
- Arguments:
{string} basePath
: The base path that single-file components are located in project{SFCFileInfo[]} sources
: The target single-file components information{MetaLocaleMessage}
: The meta of locale message
- Return:
SFCFileInfo[]
Infuse the meta of locale messages to i18n custom block at single-file components.
infuse
function will return new single-file components information that is updated with the single-file components information specified as sources
and the meta of locale message as meta
.
- Arguments:
- `{options}
provider
: The target localization service provider, required, sameprovider
option ofstatus
commandconf
: The json file configration of localization service provider, sameconf
option ofstatus
commandlocales
: For some locales of translation status, samelocales
option ofstatus
command
- `{options}
- Return:
Promise<TranslationStatus[]>
You can use the push
or pull
commands to push the locale message to the localization service as a resource for that service, and also to pull resources from the l10n service as the locale message.
When you run the following commands,
push
pull
diff
status
import
export
you need the provider that implements the following.
- export provider factory function
- provider factory function must return a provider object that have the following I/F:
push
methodpull
methodstatus
methodimport
methodexport
method
The type definition with TypeScript is as follows:
/**
* Provider factory function
*/
type ProviderFactory<T = {}> = (configration: ProviderConfiguration<T>) => Provider
/**
* Translation Status
*/
export type TranslationStatus = {
locale: Locale // target locale
percentage: number // translation percentage
}
/**
* Raw Locale Message
*/
export type RawLocaleMessage = {
locale: Locale // target locale
format: string // locale message format
data: Buffer // data of locale message
}
/**
* Provider interface
*/
interface Provider {
/**

pull (args: PullArguments): Promise<LocaleMessages>
/**

*/
status (args: StatusArguments): Promise<TranslationStatus[]>
/**
* import the locale messsages to localization service
*/
import (args: ImportArguments): Promise<void>
/**
* export the locale message buffer from localization service
*/
export (args: ExportArguments): Promise<RawLocaleMessage[]>
}
type CommonArguments = {
dryRun: boolean // whether the CLI run as dryRun mode
normalize?: string // normalization ways for locale messages or resource
}
/**

*/
type PushArguments = {
messages: LocaleMessages // the locale messages that push to localization service
} & CommonArguments
/**

*/
type PullArguments = {

} & CommonArguments
/**

*/
export type StatusArguments = {
locales: Locale[] // locales that indicate translation status from localization service, if empty, you must indicate translation status all locales
}
/**

export type ImportArguments = {

} & CommonArguments
/**

*/
export type ExportArguments = {

format: string // locale messages format
} & CommonArguments
/**
* ProviderConfiguration provider fields structure
* e.g.
* {
* "provider": {
* "token": "xxx"
* }
* }
*/
interface ProviderConfiguration<T = {}> {
provider: { [key in keyof ProviderConfigurationValue<T>]: ProviderConfigurationValue<T>[key] }
}
type ProviderConfigurationValue<T = {}> = T & { [prop: string]: unknown }
As an implementation example of Provider, there is poeditor-service-provider
implemented as localization service provider of poeditor.
The structure of locale messages to be squeezed is layered with the directory structure and single-file component (.vue
) filename.
This repotitory demo
project directory structure:
cd demo
tree src
src
├── App.vue
├── components
│ ├── Modal.vue
│ └── nest
│ └── RankingTable.vue
├── i18n.js
├── locales
│ ├── en.json
│ └── ja.json
├── main.js
└── pages
└── Login.vue
4 directories, 8 files
You use vue-cli-locale-message
CLI, run squeeze
command as follows:
vue-i18n-locale-message squeeze --target=./src --output=./messages.json
cat ./messages.json
You will get the following JSON structure (the following output results are commented To make it easier to understand):
{
"ja": { // for `ja` locale`
"App": { // src/App.vue
"title": "アプリケーション",
"lang": "言語切り替え"
