<h1 id="vuex-i18n">vuex-i18n</h1> | ||
|
||
<p>We are big fans of the awesome vue, vuex and vue-router libraries and were just | ||
looking for an easy to use internationalization plugin, employing as much of | ||
the “standard library” as possible.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>The main difference to other internationalization plugins is the ease of use | ||
and support for locales directly with the application or later from the server.</p> | ||
|
||
<h2 id="requirements">Requirements</h2> | ||
|
||
<ul> | ||
<li>Vue ^2.0.0</li> | ||
<li>Vuex ^2.0.0</li> | ||
</ul> | ||
|
||
<h2 id="installation">Installation</h2> | ||
|
||
<pre><code>$ npm install vuex-i18n | ||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<h2 id="setup">Setup</h2> | ||
|
||
<p>The vuex-i18n plugin is intended to be used for applications that use vuex as | ||
store and require localized messages. Make sure that both vue and vuex have | ||
been loaded beforehand.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>The plugin provides a vuex module to store the localization information and | ||
translations and a plugin to allow easy access from components.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>The plugin does not make any assumption on how you want to load the localization | ||
information. It can be loaded on start in your application bundle or dynamically | ||
after when the user is switching to a different language.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>A corresponding example can be found in the test directory.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript"> | ||
// load vue and vuex instance | ||
import Vue from 'vue'; | ||
import Vuex from 'vuex'; | ||
|
||
// load vuex i18n module | ||
import vuexI18n from 'vuex-i18n'; | ||
|
||
// initialize the vuex store using the vuex module. note that you can change the | ||
// name of the module if you wish | ||
const store = new Vuex.Store(); | ||
|
||
// initialize the internationalization plugin on the vue instance. note that | ||
// the store must be passed to the plugin. the plugin will then generate some | ||
// helper functions for components (i.e. this.$i18n.set, this.$t) and on the vue | ||
// instance (i.e. Vue.i18n.set). | ||
Vue.use(vuexI18n.plugin, store); | ||
|
||
// please note that you must specify the name of the vuex module if it is | ||
// different from i18n. i.e. Vue.use(vuexI18n.plugin, store, 'myName') | ||
|
||
|
||
// add some translations (could also be loaded from a separate file) | ||
// note that it is possible to use placeholders. translations can also be | ||
// structured as object trees and will automatically be flattened by the the | ||
// plugin | ||
const translationsEn = { | ||
"content": "This is some {type} content" | ||
}; | ||
|
||
// translations can be kept in separate files for each language | ||
// i.e. resources/i18n/de.json. | ||
const translationsDe = { | ||
"My nice title": "Ein schöner Titel", | ||
"content": "Dies ist ein toller Inhalt" | ||
}; | ||
|
||
// add translations directly to the application | ||
Vue.i18n.add('en', translationsEn); | ||
Vue.i18n.add('de', translationsDe); | ||
|
||
// set the start locale to use | ||
Vue.i18n.set('en'); | ||
|
||
// create a new component (requires a div with id app as mount point) | ||
// you can use the method $t to access translations. the value will be returned | ||
// as is, if no corresponding key is found in the translations | ||
var app = new Vue({ | ||
store, | ||
el: '#app', | ||
template: ` | ||
<div> | ||
<h1>{{ 'My nice title' | translate }}</h1> | ||
<p>{{ $t('content', {'type': 'nice'}) }}</p> | ||
</div> | ||
` | ||
}); | ||
|
||

|
||
<h2 id="usage">Usage</h2> | ||
|
||
<p>vuex-i18n provides easy access to localized information through the use of | ||
the <code>$t()</code> method or the <code>translate</code> filter.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>The plugin will try to find the given string as key in the translations of the | ||
currently defined locale and return the respective translation. If the string | ||
is not found, it will return as is. This wil allow you to setup an application | ||
very quickly without having to first define all strings in a separate template.</p> | ||
|
||
<p>It is also possible to specify a fallback-locale <code>$i18n.fallback(locale)</code>. If | ||
the key is not found in current locale, vuex-i18n will look for the key in the | ||
fallback-locale. If the key can not be found in the fallback-locale either, | ||
the key itself will be returned as translation.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript"><div> | ||
// will return: "Some localized information" | ||
{{ $t('Some localized information')}} | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<p>Dynamic parameters that can be passed to the translation method in the form of | ||
key/value pairs.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript"><div> | ||
// will return: "You have 5 new messages" | ||
{{ $t('You have {count} new messages', {count: 5}) }} | ||
</div> | ||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<p>It is possible to specify custom identifiers for variable substitutions. The | ||
respective identifiers - start and stop - must be passed when initializing the | ||
module. Please note that a regular expression is used to match the tags. | ||
Therefore it might be necessary to escape certain characters accordingly.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript">// i.e. to use {{count}} as variable substitution. | ||
// the third parameter defines the module name and is i18n per default | ||
Vue.use(vuexI18n.plugin, store, 'i18n', ['{{','}}']); | ||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<p>Basic pluralization is also supported. Please note, that the singular translation | ||
must be specified first, denoted from the pluralized translation by <code>:::</code>. | ||
The third parameter is used to define if the singular or plural version should be | ||
used (see below for examples). Dynamic parameters can be passed as second argument.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript"><div> | ||
// will return: "You have 5 new messages" if the third argument is 5" | ||
// or "You have 1 new message" if the third argument is 1 | ||
// or "You have -1 new message" if the third argument is -1 | ||
// or "You have 0 new messages" if the third argument is 0 (note pluralized version) | ||
{{ $t('You have {count} new message ::: You have {count} new messages', {count: 5}, 5) }} | ||
</div> | ||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<p>The current locale can be set using the <code>$i18n.set()</code> method. By default, the | ||
translation method will select the pre-specified current locale. However, it is | ||
possible to request a specific locale using the <code>$tlang()</code> method.</p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript"><div> | ||
// will return the english translation regardless of the current locale | ||
{{ $tlang('en', 'You have {count} new messages', {count: 5}) }} | ||
</div> | ||
</code></pre> | ||
|
||
<p>There are also several methods available on the property <code>this.$i18n</code> or <code>Vue.i18n</code></p> | ||
|
||
<pre><code class="javascript">$i18n.locale(), Vue.i18n.locale() | ||
// get the current locale | ||
|
||
$i18n.set(locale), Vue.i18n.set(locale) | ||
// set the current locale (i.e. 'de', 'en') | ||
|
||
$i18n.add(locale, translations), Vue.i18n.add(locale, translations) | ||
// add a new locale to the storage | ||
// (i.e. 'de', {'message': 'Eine Nachricht'}) | ||
|
||
$i18n.localeExists(locale), Vue.i18n.localeExists(locale) | ||
// check if the given locale translations are present in the store | ||
|
||
$i18n.keyExists(key), Vue.i18n.keyExists(key) | ||
// check if the given key is available in the current or fallback locale | ||
|
||
$i18n.remove(locale), Vue.i18n.remove(locale) | ||
// remove the given locale from the store | ||
|
||
$i18n.fallback(locale), Vue.i18n.fallback(locale) | ||
// set a fallback locale if translation for current locale does not exist | ||
