Internationalization

Any string can be internationalized by providing additional translations after an umlaut character followed by a language specifier.

Translations are tested from right to left, the first translation being used by default.

A language specifier can contain one or several language tags separated by commas.

A language tag can define a language code, a country code and a continent code, separated by dashes.

multilingualText = 'trunk¨en-UK,en--OC:boot¨fr:coffre¨pt:mala¨pt-BR:porta-malas';

setLanguageCode( 'en' );
setCountryCode( 'US' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'trunk' );

setLanguageCode( 'en' );
setCountryCode( 'UK' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'boot' );

setLanguageCode( 'en' );
setCountryCode( 'AU' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'boot' );

setLanguageCode( 'fr' );
setCountryCode( 'FR' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'coffre' );

setLanguageCode( 'pt' );
setCountryCode( 'PT' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'mala' );

setLanguageCode( 'pt' );
setCountryCode( 'BR' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText ) === 'porta-malas' );

Translations can also include variables, and use them to define additional conditions.

multilingualText = '{count} bathrooms¨en?count=1:{count} bathroom¨fr:{count} salles de bain¨fr?count<2:{count} salle de bain';

setLanguageCode( 'en' );
setCountryCode( 'US' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 0 } ) === '0 bathrooms' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 1 } ) === '1 bathroom' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 2 } ) === '2 bathrooms' );

setLanguageCode( 'fr' );
setCountryCode( 'FR' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 0 } ) === '0 salle de bain' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 1 } ) === '1 salle de bain' );
assert( getLocalizedText( multilingualText, { count: 2 } ) === '2 salles de bain' );

Translations can contain tags and entities :

A text<br>on two lines.¨fr:Un texte<br>sur deux lignes.

They can also contain custom tags :

A **bold** text§on two lines.¨fr:Un texte en **gras**§sur deux lignes.

Custom tags can be freely defined :

defineTag( '§', '<br/>' );
defineDualTag( '**', '<b>', '</b>' );
