Ubah

Ubah is a simple translation helper library

INSTALLATION

To install this module, use npm install --save ubah

USAGE

To setup the library, you need to provide a dictionary/js object of the translation with this format

// languageDictionary.js
{
  en: {
    HELLO_WORLD: 'Hello, World !'
  }
  id: {
    HELLO_WORLD: 'Halo, Dunia !'
  }
}

then you can use this module like this.

// index.js
const ubah = require('ubah');
const dictionary = require('./languageDictionary');

// init ubah with your dictionary
ubah.init(dictionary);


// change current used language
ubah.changeLanguage('id');

// get translation
const translatedHello = ubah.getTranslation('HELLO_WORLD');
// will output `Halo, Dunia !`
console.log(translatedHello);

// your-file.js
// you only need to import ubah again, no need to re init with language dictionary
// also the language set is global, so once you use a changeLanguage function it will be changged
// in everywhere you used it
const ubah = require('ubah');

const translatedHello2 = ubah.getTranslation('HELLO_WORLD');
// will still output `Halo, Dunia !` because we set it to 'id' on index.js
console.log(translatedHello2);

NOTES

1. The ubah.changeLanguage() function will change the current used language globally on every ubah instance.
2. You only need to use ubah.init() function once to init ubah with your dictionary file.
3. Ubah state is build on top of redux and you can actually provide custom reducer (more notes on this later)
