gulp-i18n-tag

Gulp plugin to extract tagged template literals, for i18n and l10n. Build a translations.json!

Example Usage

The plugin handles the bundling, since most often you'll have several repetitions of the same string in different files. i18nTag bundles up all the source files in your pipe, and puts every tagged template literal with t in it into the pipe.

module.exports = function scriptsTasks(gulp, plugins) {
  gulp.task('translate', () => gulp
    .src('app/**/*.js')
    .pipe(i18nTag())
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./i18n'))
    .pipe(through.obj((file, encoding, cb) => {
      cb(null, file);
    }))
    .on('error', console.error));
};

Optional Parms:

• fileName Newly built file object's name. default: translations.json
• tagNames The tag names to parse out from your code. default: ['t']

example:

i18nTag({ fileName: 'locales_en.json', tagNames: ['__', 'i18n'] })

This will find all template literals tagged __ or i18n, and put their strings in a file locales_en.json.
