Localization

VS Internationalization?

Aiming for as simple as possible

V1: https://github.com/hyperledger/aries-rfcs/blob/233aeae8f730c8790533e91b52363ed0715ab225/features/0043-l10n/README.md

Goals:

  • Allow adding localization without requiring a restructure of messages

Step 1:

  • Declare message locale
  • Bonus: specify which fields are translatable.












{
    
    "l10n": {
        "locale": "en-us",
        "fields": ["greeting", "question"]
    },
    "body":{
        "greeting": "Welcome!",
        "question": "What is your favorite food?",
        "name": "Dimitri"
    }
}

Step 2:

  • Field overrides & translation












{
    
    "body":{
        "greeting": "Welcome!",
        "greeeting~l10n": {
            "locale": "en-us",
            "es": "bienvenidos" 
        },
        "question": "What is your favorite food?",
        "name": "Dimitri"
    }
}

Step 3:

  • External library reference















{
    
    "l10n": {
        "locale": "en-us",
        "catalogs": ["uri:to/catalog.json"]
    },
    "body":{
        "greeting": "Welcome!",
        "question": "What is your favorite food?",
        "question~l10n": {
            "code": "food-question"
        },
        "name": "Dimitri"
    }
}

Example catalog file:







{
    "food-question": {
        "es": "¿Cuál es tu comida favorita?",
        "fr": "Quel est votre plat préféré?"
    }
}
