codinglizards-localizer v1.0.6

Localizer

A super simple express middleware for localization. To use it, you need to have locale installed.

How does it work?

Localizer reads all the files in a folder called languages in your current directory and parses them, by key-value principle.

It exports two methods:

initialize(options)

This method reads all the files in options.path and parses them all.

localize

This method is the middleware, which adds the next method req.localize to the request object.

req.localize

This method tries to find a key in the languages dictionar which matches. If it cannot find it, it just returns the key.

The way how it tries to find the value is by the following order,

1. req.locale value if this doesn't exist
2. it just gets the default value from the default.json file if this isn't present
3. it just returns the key
