i18n-xlsx-loader

Directly import an XLSX file in your project as source for i18n locales messages.

This loader extract the locales messages from an Xlsx file then convert them in javascript exported objects named after the locale name.

Each sheet name is used as root attribute in the final locale js object.

Example:

Sheet Name: common

key	fr	en
sidebar.hideSidebar	Masquer la barre latérale	Hide Sidebar

Sheet Name: login

key	fr	en
form.password	Mot de passe	Password

will result to:

export const fr = {
  common: {
    sidebar: {
      hideSidebar: 'Masquer la barre latérale'
    }
  },
  login: {
    form: {
      password: 'Mot de passe'
    }
  }
}

export const en = {
  common: {
    sidebar: {
      hideSidebar: 'Hide Sidebar'
    }
  },
  login: {
    form: {
      password: 'Password'
    }
  }
}

Usage

Update your Webpack configuration

In your webpack.config.js file:

const path = require('path')

{
  ...,
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: path.resolve('locales/translations.xlsx'),
        use: {
          loader: '@seb-l/i18n-xlsx-loader'
        },
      },
    ],
  },
  ...
}

Using with webpack-extend (for a Nuxt app in this example):

const path = require('path')

{
  ...
  extend (config, { isDev, isClient }) {
    config.module.rules.push(
      {
        test: path.resolve('locales/translations.xlsx'),
        loader: '@seb-l/i18n-xlsx-loader',
      }
    )
  }
  ...
}

In the file you want to use your translations in

import { fr, en } from '@/locales/translations.xlsx'
