Globalization Pipeline client

This is a JavaScript SDK for the Globalization Pipeline Bluemix service. The Globalization Pipeline service makes it easy for you to provide your global customers with Bluemix applications translated into the languages in which they work.

The SDK currently supports Node.js.

Node.js

The remainder of this document explains how to use the Globalization service with the Node.js client.

For a working Bluemix application sample, see gp-nodejs-sample.

Quickstart - Bluemix

Add g11n-pipeline to your project, as well as cfenv.

npm install --save g11n-pipeline cfenv

Load the gaas client object as follows (using cfenv ).

var appEnv = require('cfenv').getAppEnv();
var gpClient = require('g11n-pipeline').getClient({
   appEnv: appEnv
});

Using

To fetch the strings for a bundle named "hello", first create a bundle accessor:

var mybundle = gpClient.bundle('hello');

Then, call the getStrings function with a callback:

mybundle.getStrings({ languageId: 'es'}, function (err, result) {
    if (err) {
        // handle err..
        console.error(err);
    } else {
        var myStrings = result.resourceStrings;
        console.dir(myStrings);
    }
});

This code snippet will output the translated strings such as the following:

{
    hello:   '¡Hola!',
    goodbye: '¡Adiós!',
    …
}

Testing

See TESTING.md

API convention

APIs take a callback and use this general pattern:

gpClient.function( { /*params*/ } ,  function callback(err, ...))

params: an object containing input parameters, if needed.
err: if truthy, indicates an error has occured.
...: other parameters (optional)

These APIs may be promisified easily using a library such as Q's nfcall:

return Q.ninvoke(bundle, "delete", {});
return Q.ninvoke(gpClient, "getBundleList", {});

Also, note that there are aliases from the swagger doc function names to the convenience name. For example, bundle.uploadResourceStrings can be used in place of bundle.uploadStrings.

All language identifiers are IETF BCP47 codes.
