Introduction
This is a i18next backend to be used with node.js for external services such as spacetranslate or locize service. It's for the node.js server what the i18next-service-backend is for the browser.
Getting started
Source can be loaded via npm.
$ npm install i18next-node-service-backend
Wiring up:
var i18next = require('i18next');
var Backend = require('i18next-node-service-backend');
i18next
.use(Backend)
.init(i18nextOptions);As with all modules you can either pass the constructor function (class) to the i18next.use or a concrete instance.
Backend Options
{
// service url to the backend service
// i.e. https://api.spacetranslate.com or https://api.locize.io
service: '[SERVICE_URL]',
// the id of your project
projectId: '[PROJECTID]',
// add an api key if you want to send missing keys
apiKey: '[APIKEY]',
// the reference language of your project
referenceLng: '[LNG]',
// version - defaults to latest
version: '[VERSION]'
}Options can be passed in:
preferred - by setting options.backend in i18next.init:
var i18next = require('i18next');
var Backend = require('i18next-node-service-backend');
i18next
.use(Backend)
.init({
backend: options
});on construction:
var Backend = require('i18next-node-service-backend');
var backend = new Backend(null, options);by calling init:
var Backend = require('i18next-node-service-backend');
var backend = new Backend();
backend.init(null, options);
