i18n-next-tools

This is for syncing i18n-next translations with google sheets.

Install:

npm install --save i18n-next-tools-gs

Config:

You may provide 18n-next-tools.json inside the project's root folder:

{
    "available-langs": [
      "en",
      "ru",
      "ua"
    ],
    "source": "./src",
    "resourcesFile": "src/i18n/resources.json",
    "google": {
      "privateKey": "./google-project-aa3ebb5b3177.json",
      "spreadsheetId": "2Jwl37s05XW-RgY5F-ZTuNXme33rrag22k0EwUQmBZga"
    }
  }

or you may add i18n section to your package.json file with the config above.

• available-langs - languages that your app is translated to.
• source - path where to search for the source files with translations.
• resourcesFile - path to the file where to store scanned translations.
• google - provide google configuration if you are planning to sync your translations with google sheets. Otherwise it may be omitted.
• google.privateKey - obtain service account credentials from google. It should be json file with your private key.
• google.spreadsheetId - id of a spread sheet to sync with.

Use:

To sync with google sheets call:

npx i18nt-sync

This will:

1. do everything that npx i18nt-create-translations does.
2. download data from google sheet, compare it with resourcesFile, carefully merge them and upload result back to google.

You may also wish to provide translations from your backend:

import {i18nFromGoogleSheetExpress} from 'i18n-next-tools';

const router = express.Router();

router.get('/translations', i18nFromGoogleSheetExpress);
