Super easy translation API, making it easier for you to set your own translation languages & text.

Super easy translation API, making it easier for you to set your own translation languages & text. It's still a work in progress, and is by no means bullet proof, but it works.

This won't automatically translate your text, but is more of an API to make it easier to manage when having to self translate.

How to use (Use cases)

Normal JS

// Call the TranslateLight class
let trans = new TranslateLight();
// Within your app / js, set the language to a reference of your choice
trans.setLang("en");
// Pass in an object with a reference key to the text. Inside that give it your languages, and include the text in that language. Like below.
trans.setText({"Hello" : {"en" : "Hello", "fr" : "Bonjour", "ger" : "Hallo"}});

// Use the get method to retrieve your key, in this case "Hello"
console.log(trans.get("Hello"));

// You can also call setLang at any point, and it will alter any methods called after it.
trans.setLang("fr");

console.log(trans.get("Hello"));

// You can also use this to set text on a page for example - 

var element = document.getElementById("id");
element.innerHTML = trans.get("Hello");
