cldr-data

Npm's cldr-data

Npm module for Unicode CLDR JSON data.

Goal

• Allow i18n libraries to define CLDR data as versioned "peer" dependency.
• Provide tools to assist (in other words, ease the pain) on fetching the data.

Bonus goals

• Optimal for backend development. (Frontend, see Bower's cldr-data).
• Optimal for Node.js environment. (AMD, see Bower's cldr-data).

Usage

On the package.json of your i18n library, define its CLDR data dependency. compatible with.

"dependencies": {
  "cldr-data": ">25"
}

On your library, access CLDR JSON data using require("cldr-data").

cldr = require("cldr-data");

function Pluralize(locale) {
  var plurals = cldr("supplemental/plurals");
  var language = extractLanguageFrom(locale);

  // Your awesome pluralization logic
  pluralForm = doAwesomeStuffWith(
    plurals.supplemental["plurals-type-cardinal"][language]
  );

  return pluralForm;
}

For your convinience, use cldr-data in conjunction of cldr.js. You can find more details switching to the Foo Number Format Library Example or Application Example branches.
