fluent

fluent is a JavaScript implementation of Project Fluent, a localization framework designed to unleash the expressive power of the natural language.

Installation

fluent can be used both on the client-side and the server-side. You can install it from the npm registry or use it as a standalone script (as the Fluent global).

npm install fluent

How to use

The FluentBundle constructor provides the core functionality of formatting translations from FTL files.

import { FluentBundle, ftl } from 'fluent';
 
const bundle = new FluentBundle('en-US');
 
const errors = bundle.addMessages(ftl`
    -brand-name = Foo 3000
    welcome = Welcome, { $name }, to { -brand-name }!
`);
 
if (errors.length) {
  // syntax errors are per-message and don't break the whole resource
}
 
const welcome = bundle.getMessage('welcome');
 
bundle.format(welcome, { name: 'Anna' });
// → 'Welcome, Anna, to Foo 3000!'

The API reference is available at http://projectfluent.org/fluent.js/fluent.

Compatibility

fluent requires the following Intl formatters:

  • Intl.DateTimeFormat (standard, well-supported)
  • Intl.NumberFormat (standard, well-supported)
  • Intl.PluralRules (standard, new in ECMAScript 2018)

Intl.PluralRules may already be available in some engines. In most cases, however, a polyfill will be required. We recommend intl-pluralrules.

import 'intl-pluralrules';
import { FluentBundle } from 'fluent';

For legacy browsers, the compat build has been transpiled using Babel's env preset. It requires the regenerator runtime provided by babel-polyfill.

import { FluentBundle } from 'fluent/compat';
