redux-react-native-i18n

An i18n solution with plural forms support for React Native apps on Redux.

This package provides functionality of redux-react-i18n to React Native. The difference between this package and redux-react-i18n is in presentational component and its container. <Loc/> from this package uses <Text> from 'react-native' instead of <span>.

Short code demo

Write ( jsx ):

<Loc locKey="your_key_1"/>
<Loc locKey="your_key_2" number={1}/>
<Loc locKey="your_key_2" number={2}/>
<Loc locKey="your_key_2" number={5}/>

Result ( html ):

<Text>Перевод вашего первого ключа из словаря для текущего языка</Text>
<Text>Пришла 1 кошечка</Text>
<Text>Пришли 2 кошечки</Text>
<Text>Пришло 5 кошечек</Text>

What am I using:

redux-react-i18n: ( github or npm )

Install:

You need react-native to be installed!

Terminal:

npm i redux-react-native-i18n

What's in the box

Components:

• Loc ( Container Component )
• LocPresentational ( Presentational Component )

Actions

• setCurrent( languageCode )
• setLanguages( languageCode )
• addDictionary( languageCode, dictionary )
• setDictionaries( dictionaries )

Reducer

• i18n

Full code demo ( complete solution ):

import { i18nReducer, i18nActions, Loc } from 'redux-react-native-i18n'

...
// "reducers" contains your reducers
reducers.i18n = i18nReducer
...

const store = createStore( combineReducers( reducers ) )

...
// Set dictionaries (simpliest exapmple) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// This dictionaries can be supported by Localization team without need to know somth about interface or project,
// and you just can fetch it to your project
const dictionaries = {
    'ru-RU': {
        'key_1': 'Первый дефолтный ключ',
        'key_2': [ '$Count', ' ', ['штучка','штучки','штучек']], // 1 штучка, 3 штучки, пять штучек
        'key_3': {
            'nested_1': 'Первый вложенный ключ',
            'nested_2': 'Второй вложенный ключ',
        },
        /* ... */
        /* Other keys */
    },
    'en-US': {
        'key_1': 'First default key',
        'key_2': [ '$Count', ' ', ['thing','things']], // 1 thing, 2 things, 153 things
        'key_3': {
            'nested_1': 'First nested key',
            'nested_2': 'Second nested key',
        },
    }
    /* ... */
    /* Other dictionaries */
}
store.dispatch( i18nActions.setDictionaries( dictionaries ) )
// / Set dictionaries (simpliest exapmple) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Set languages (simpliest exapmple) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
const languages = [
    {
        code: 'ru-RU',
        name: 'Русский'
    },
    {
        code: 'en-US',
        name: 'English (USA)'
    }
    /* ... */
    /* Other languages */
]

store.dispatch( i18nActions.setLanguages( languages ) )
// / Set languages (simpliest exapmple) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Set current language code (you can map this action to select component or somth like this)
store.dispatch( i18nActions.setCurrentLanguage( 'ru-RU' ) )

And now you can use "Loc" container component

import { Loc } from 'redux-react-native-i18n'
...

<View>
    <Loc locKey="key_1"/> // => Первый дефолтный ключ
    <Loc locKey="key_2" number={7}/> // => 7 штучек
    <Loc locKey="key_3.nested_1"/> // => Первый вложенный ключ
    <Loc locKey="key_3.nested_2"/> // => Второй вложенный ключ
</View>

If you don't want to use a complete solution:

Just use a dumb component and you can design store/actions/reducers by yourself like you want

// Just import presentational component LocPresentational
import { LocPresentational } from 'redux-react-native-i18n'
...
...
...
// Then map data to props => currentLanguage, dictionary (See more in src/Loc.js):
const mapStateToProps = ( { /*getting data from the state*/ }, ownProps ) => ({
    currentLanguage: yourCurrentLanguageFromState,
    dictionary: yourDictionaryFromState
});
Loc = connect( mapStateToProps )( LocPresentational )
...
...
...
<Loc locKey="YOUR_KEY_1"/>
<Loc locKey="YOUR_KEY_2"  number={42}/>
