Babel plugin for collecting messages from source code for internationalization
@lingui/babel-plugin-extract-messages is a Babel plugin designed to extract messages from your code for internationalization (i18n) purposes. It works in conjunction with the LinguiJS framework to help developers manage and translate text in their applications.
Extracting Messages
This feature allows you to extract messages from your codebase into a specified directory. The configuration specifies the directory where the extracted messages will be stored and whether to extract messages from `formatMessage` calls.
```json
{
"presets": ["@babel/preset-env", "@babel/preset-react"],
"plugins": [
[
"@lingui/babel-plugin-extract-messages",
{
"localeDir": "./locales/",
"extractFromFormatMessageCall": true
}
]
]
}
```Custom Message Extraction
This feature allows you to define custom formatters for message extraction. The configuration includes a custom formatter with a specific name and pattern, enabling more flexible message extraction.
```json
{
"presets": ["@babel/preset-env", "@babel/preset-react"],
"plugins": [
[
"@lingui/babel-plugin-extract-messages",
{
"localeDir": "./locales/",
"extractFromFormatMessageCall": true,
"customFormatters": [
{
"name": "customFormatter",
"pattern": "customPattern"
}
]
}
]
]
}
