Readme
Internationalisation with easy syntax for node.js and browser.
Classic solutions use multiple phrases for plurals. Babelfish
defines plurals
inline instead - that's more compact, and easy for programmers. Also, phrases
are grouped into nested scopes, like in Ruby.
BabelFish
supports all plural rules from unicode CLDR
(via plurals-cldr).
node.js:
$ npm install babelfish
browser:
$ bower install babelfish
Use es5-shim for old browsers compatibility.
#{varname}
Echoes value of variable((Singular|Plural1|Plural2)):count
Plural formexample:
А у меня в кармане #{nails_count} ((гвоздь|гвоздя|гвоздей)):nails_count
You can also omit anchor variable for plurals, by default it will be count
.
Thus following variants are equal:
I have #{count} ((nail|nails))
I have #{count} ((nail|nails)):count
Also you can use variables in plural parts:
I have ((#{count} nail|#{count} nails))
Need special zero form or overwrite any specific value? No problems:
I have ((=0 no nails|#{count} nail|#{count} nails))
If you need #{
, ((
, |
or ))
somewhere in text, where it can be considered
as markup part - just escape them with \
.
As BabelFish flatten scopes, it's really fun and nice to store translations in YAML files:

// Create new instance of BabelFish with default language/locale: 'en-GB'
var BabelFish = require('babelfish');
var i18n = new BabelFish('en-GB');
// Fill in some phrases
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.hello', 'Hello, #{user.name}.');
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.conv.wazup', 'Whats up?');
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.conv.alright', 'Alright, man!');
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.coerce', 'Total: #{count}.');
i18n.addPhrase('ru-RU', 'demo.hello', 'Привет, #{user.name}.');
i18n.addPhrase('ru-RU', 'demo.conv.wazup', 'Как дела?');
i18n.addPhrase('uk-UA', 'demo.hello', 'Здоровенькі були, #{user.name}.');
// Set locale fallback to use the most appropriate translation when possible
i18n.setFallback('uk-UA', 'ru-RU');
// Translate
var params = {user: {name: 'ixti'}};
i18n.t('ru-RU', 'demo.hello', params); // -> 'Привет, ixti.'
i18n.t('ru-RU', 'demo.conv.wazup'); // -> 'Как дела?'
i18n.t('ru-RU', 'demo.conv.alright'); // -> 'Alright, man!'
i18n.t('uk-UA', 'demo.hello', params); // -> 'Здоровенькі були, ixti.'
i18n.t('uk-UA', 'demo.conv.wazup'); // -> 'Как дела?'
i18n.t('uk-UA', 'demo.conv.alright'); // -> 'Alright, man!'
// When params is number or strings, it will be coerced to
// `{ count: XXX, value: XXX }` - use any of those in phrase.
i18n.t('en-GB', 'demo.coerce', 5); // -> 'Total: 5.'
// You may wish to "dump" translations to load in browser later
// Dump will include all fallback translations and fallback rules
var locale_dump = i18n.stringify('ru-RU');
var i18n_new = require('babelfish')('en-GB'); // init without `new` also works
i18n_new.load(locale_dump);
// Use objects instead of strings (object/array/number/boolean) - can be
// useful to prepare bulk data for external libraries.
// Note, only JSON-supported types are ok (no date & regex)
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.boolean', true);
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.number', 123);
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.array', [1, 2, 3]);
// fourth param required for hashes (objects) to disable flattening,
// other types are autodetected
i18n.addPhrase('en-GB', 'demo.array', { foo:1, bar:"2" }, false);
