And import the exposed methods, or the whole bundle

const { flatten, unflatten } = require('i18n-to-locfile');

API

The package exposes 2 methods, one for transforming JSON into a dotted property file, and the other way around.

Flatten

flatten(deepObject):flatObject

const { flatten, unflatten } = require('i18n-to-locfile');

const object = {
    hello: 'world',
    address: {
        street: 'somestreet',
        city: 'new york',
    },
    phone: [
        '1-555-1234',
        '1-555-2345',
    ],
};

const flatObject = flatten(object);
console.log(flatObject);

Will return:

{
    hello: 'world',
    address.street: 'somestreet',
    address.city: 'newyork',
    phone$0: '1-555-1234',
    phone$1: '1-555-2345',
}

Unflatten

unflatten(flatObject):deepObject

To go the other way:

console.log(unflatten(flatObject));

Will return the original object:

{
    hello: 'world',
    address: {
        street: 'somestreet',
        city: 'new york',
    },
    phone: [
        '1-555-1234',
        '1-555-2345',
    ],
}
