Dict-intl
This cli-tool helps us to create a dictionary for the translation library React-Intl
After we have replaced all plain text with translation components in our React app, we need dictionaries which we will translate into different languages.
Work logic
- You specify your React project folder and the application recursively scans all files in it.
- We are looking for all the components for translation and collect the default id and message from there:
<FormattedMessage id="common.find" defaultMessage="find"/> - from this data we collect a dictionary and store it in the json-file
{
"common.find": "find"
}Example
