vue-i18next

Vue plugin for integrating I18Next.

About

This is a plugin for the Vue view data-binding library, integrating the I18Next internationalization library. It provides a global Vue.t() function and a local $t() function which passes-through to i18next.t() with the exception that the global Vue parameter i18nextLanguage is passed to i18next.t() as option lng and for $t() the local Vue option i18nextNamespace is passed to i18next.t() as option ns. As this plugin is based on vue-params, the target language can be altered at any time by assigning to the variable Vue.params.i18nextLanguage. As a result, the data-bindings will be forced to update by vue-params.

Usage

# install necessary packages
$ npm install vue vue-params vue-i18next

/* initial setup */
Vue.use(VueParams)
Vue.use(VueI18Next)
Vue.params.i18nextLanguage = "en"
i18next.init({ lng: Vue.params.i18nextLanguage, ... })

/* usage in global context */
Vue.t("foo")
Vue.t("bar.baz", { lng: "de", ns: "quux" })

/* setup a view data-binding */
new vue = new Vue({
    el: $("#sample"),
    i18nextNamespace: "quux"
})

<!-- usage in local context -->
<div id="sample">
    {{ $t("foo") }}
    {{ $t("bar.baz", { lng: "de", ns: "quux" }) }}
</div>
