koa locales, i18n solution for koa:
1. All locales resources location on `options.dirs`.
2. resources file supports: `*.js`, `*.json`, `*.yml`, `*.yaml` and `*.properties`, see [examples](test/locales/).
3. One api: `__(key[, value, ...])`.
4. Auto detect request locale from `query`, `cookie` and `header: Accept-Language`.
## Installation
```bash
$ npm install koa-locales --save
```
## Quick start
```js
const koa = require('koa');
const locales = require('koa-locales');
const app = koa();
const options = {
dirs: [__dirname + '/locales', __dirname + '/foo/locales'],
};
locales(app, options);
```
## API Reference
### `locales(app, options)`
Patch locales functions to koa app.
- {Application} app: koa app instance.
- {Object} options: optional params.
- {String} functionName: locale function name patch on koa context. Optional, default is `__`.
- {String} dirs: locales resources store directories. Optional, default is `['$PWD/locales']`.
- {String} defaultLocale: default locale. Optional, default is `en-US`.
- {String} queryField: locale field name on query. Optional, default is `locale`.
- {String} cookieField: locale field name on cookie. Optional, default is `locale`.
- {String} cookieDomain: domain on cookie. Optional, default is `''`.
- {Object} localeAlias: locale value map. Optional, default is `{}`.
- {String|Number} cookieMaxAge: set locale cookie value max age. Optional, default is `1y`, expired after one year.
```js
locales({
app: app,
dirs: [__dirname + '/app/locales'],
defaultLocale: 'zh-CN',
});
```
#### Aliases
The key `options.localeAlias` allows to not repeat dictionary files, as you can configure to use the same file for *es_ES* for *es*, or *en_UK* for *en*.
```js
locales({
localeAlias: {
es: es_ES,
en: en_UK,
},
});
```
### `context.__(key[, value1[, value2, ...]])`
Get current request locale text.
```js
async function home(ctx) {
ctx.body = {
message: ctx.__('Hello, %s', 'fengmk2'),
};
}
```
Examples:
```js
__('Hello, %s. %s', 'fengmk2', 'koa rock!')
=>
'Hello fengmk2. koa rock!'
__('{0} {0} {1} {1} {1}', ['foo', 'bar'])
=>
'foo foo bar bar bar'
__('{a} {a} {b} {b} {b}', {a: 'foo', b: 'bar'})
=>
'foo foo bar bar bar'
```
### `context.__getLocale()`
Get locale from query / cookie and header.
### `context.__setLocale()`
Set locale and cookie.
### `context.__getLocaleOrigin()`
Where does locale come from, could be `query`, `cookie`, `header` and `default`.
### `app.__(locale, key[, value1[, value2, ...]])`
Get the given locale text on application level.
```js
console.log(app.__('zh', 'Hello'));
// stdout '你好' for Chinese
```
## Usage on template
```js
this.state.__ = this.__.bind(this);
```
[Nunjucks] example:
```html
{{ __('Hello, %s', user.name) }}
```
[Pug] example:
```pug
p= __('Hello, %s', user.name)
```
[Koa-pug] integration:
You can set the property *locals* on the KoaPug instance, where the default locals are stored.
```js
app.use(async (ctx, next) => {
koaPug.locals.__ = ctx.__.bind(ctx);
await next();
});
```
## Debugging
If you are interested on knowing what locale was chosen and why you can enable the debug messages from [debug].
There is two level of verbosity:
```sh
$ DEBUG=koa-locales node .
```
With this line it only will show one line per request, with the chosen language and the origin where the locale come from (queryString, header or cookie).
```sh
$ DEBUG=koa-locales:silly node .
```
Use this level if something doesn't work as you expect. This is going to debug everything, including each translated line of text.
