NAME

Locale::Babelfish - wrapper between Locale::Maketext::Lexicon and https://github.com/nodeca/babelfish format

VERSION

This document describes version 0.01 of Locale::Babelfish

DESCRIPTION

Internationalisation with easy syntax. Simple wrapper between Locale::Maketext and https://github.com/nodeca/babelfish format. Created for using same dictionaries on backend and frontend.

SYNOPSIS

package Foo;
use Locale::Babelfish;

my $bf = Locale::Babelfish->new( { dirs => [ '/path/to/dictionaries'] } );
warn $bf->t('dictionary.firstkey.nextkey', { foo => 'bar'} );

More sophisticated example:

package Foo::Bar;

use Locale::Babelfish;
...
my $bf = Locale::Babelfish->new( {
        dirs         => [ '/path/to/dictionaries'],
        default_lang => ['ru_RU'], # By default en_US
        langs        => [{ 'uk_UA' => 'Foo::Bar::Lang::uk_UA' } , 'de_DE' ] # for custom languages specify they are plural forms
    },
    $logger # Logger for example Log::Log4Perl, not required parameter
    );
warn $bf->t('dictionary.firstkey.nextkey', { foo => 'bar'} );
$bf->set_context_lang('en_US');
warn $bf->t('dictionary.firstkey.nextkey', { foo => 'bar'} );

Phrases Syntax

#{varname} Echoes value of variable ((Singular|Plural1|Plural2)):count Plural form

Example:

I have #{count} ((nail|nails)):count

or short form

I have #{count} ((nail|nails))

dictionary file example

Module support only yaml format. create dictionary file like: dictionary.en_US.yaml where dictionary - is name of dictionary and en_US - his locale

profile: Profiel apps: forums: new_topic: New topic last_post: title : Last message demo: apples: I have #{count} ((apple|apples))

Custom plural forms

By default locale will be inherited from en_US. If you would like specify own, create module like this: and implement quant_word function.

..... package Locale::Babelfish::Lang::uk_UA;

use parent 'Locale::Babelfish::Maketext'; use strict;

sub quant_word { my ($self, $num, $single, $plural1, $plural2) = @_;

my $num_s   = $num % 10;
my $num_dec = $num % 100;
my $ret;

if    ($num_dec >= 10 and $num_dec <= 20) { $ret = $plural2 || $plural1 || $single }
elsif ($num_s == 1)                       { $ret = $single }
elsif ($num_s >= 2 and $num_s <= 4)       { $ret = $plural1 || $single }
else                                      { $ret = $plural2 || $plural1 || $single }
return $ret;
}

Methods

set_context_lang

$self->set_context_lang( 'ru_RU' );

t
