⚙️ Api

init

Inorder to use $t, the plugin must be initialized using init function. It sets the fallback locale, initial locale and messages. It also accepts boolean logs to enable/disable logs.

properties

t

This is used inside svelte components to get the translated message for given key. It is also exported at _ so alias $_ can also be used. If no translation is found, it returns the key itself. Inorder to use this, the plugin must be initialized with init method with the options mentioned above.

<script>
  import { t } from "i18n-svelte";
</script>

<p>{$t("hello")}</p>
<p>{$t("greet", { name: "John Doe" })}</p>

locale

This is the svelte store that holds the current locale and can be used to get current locale or to set new locale

<script>
  import { locale } from "i18n-svelte";
  locale.set("ne"); // sets locale to ne and updates all messages
  console.log($locale); // prints current locale. i.e ne
</script>
