Installation

Run the command below to install the package.

$ npm install --save vue-translated translated

When used with a module system, you must explicitly install vue-translated via Vue.use().

import Vue from 'vue';
import VueTranslated from 'vue-translated';

Vue.use(VueTranslated);

Getting Started

Initialize translated.js and define a user model.

import {I18n} from 'translated';

const i18n = new I18n({
  locale: 'en-US',
  messages: {
    hello: 'Hello, {name}.'
  }
});

Attach the i18n instance to your Vue.js application.

const app = new Vue({
  i18n, // injecting i18n into child components
  ...
});

By passing the i18n instance to the root Vue instance as the i18n option, the $i18n property is injected into every child component.

Usage Example

This plugin registers i18n methods so you can use them directly.

<template>
  <div>
    <p>{{ $formatMessage('hello', {name: 'John'}) }}</p>
    <p>{{ $formatNumber(1000.13, {format: 'integer'}) }}</p>
    <p>{{ $formatDate(Date.now(), {format: 'long'}) }}</p>
    <p>{{ $formatTime(Date.now(), {format: 'medium'}) }}</p>
    <p>{{ $formatRelativeTime(Date.now() - 10000) }}</p>
  </div>
</template>
