Example

Given we have two i18n json files – en.json:

{
  "language": "English",
  "capitol": "London",
  "units": {
    "time_hour": "hour",
    "currency": "GBP",
    "drink": "tea"
  }
}

... and pl.json:

{
  "language": "Polski",
  "capitol": "Warszawa",
  "units": {
    "time_hour": "godzina",
    "currency": "PLN"
  }
}

After running:

i18n-manager clean app/i18n -f en.json

...we should see output in console:

i18n files cleaned.
base file:
{ language: 'English',
  capitol: 'London',
  units: { time_hour: 'hour', currency: 'GBP', drink: 'tea' } }
cleaned files:
[ { language: 'Polski',
    capitol: 'Warszawa',
    units: { currency: 'PLN', time_hour: 'godzina', drink: 'tea' } } ]

Missing fields in pl.json should be replaced with values from base en.json file. The most convinient option is to use all options at once:

i18n-manager clean app/i18n -fas en.json

It will:

• fill missing keys
• sort keys based on base file
• save result to files and creates backup for all fill that were changed
