Polyglot.js
Polyglot.js is a JavaScript internationalization library and client-side translation framework. It provides a system for mapping unique keys to localized strings, allowing applications to translate text into multiple languages.
The library includes a pluralization and interpolation engine that handles complex grammatical plural forms based on numeric counts and inserts dynamic variables into translated strings. It supports nested namespaces to organize phrase mappings into logical categories.
These utilities cover phrase translation, locale-driven configuration, and the management of multi-language website localization.
Features
- Client-Side Translation Frameworks - Provides a lightweight client-side framework for managing nested translation namespaces and mapping keys to localized values.
- Key-Value Translation Mappings - Provides centralized translation files using key-value pairs to support multilingual interface text.
- Inline Variable Interpolation - Injects and evaluates variable values directly within localized text strings at runtime.
- Template String Interpolation - Provides utilities for parsing strings with placeholders and replacing them with dynamic values.
- Pluralization and Interpolation Engines - Implements an engine that applies linguistic pluralization rules and injects dynamic variables into strings.
- Pluralization Rules - Implements logic for selecting correct string forms based on numeric values and locale-specific grammar.
- Localization Settings - Implements configuration options for setting the display language and regional preferences of an interface.
- Content Translation - Provides mechanisms for swapping user-facing text into multiple languages based on regional settings.
- JavaScript Internationalization Libraries - Provides a JavaScript library for adding translatable text and locale support to applications.
- Multi-Language Websites - Supports building and managing websites that serve content in multiple languages via translation management.
- Localized String Interpolation - Embeds dynamic values into strings with automatic regional formatting for localized user interfaces.
- Nested Key Resolution - Supports traversing nested object hierarchies using dot-notation to retrieve specific localized phrases.
