ng-i18n-0.1.0 is not a library.

ng-i18n

ng-i18n is a set of utilities for use with the Angular web framework's @angular/localize package. Angular themselves said that they will not be addressing the issue of localization file changes themselves, so I've decided to create a small utility that generates and updates different language i18n files automatically.

How to install

Using Cargo

This method required the Rust toolchain to be installed. If you do not already have it get it here.

ng-i18n is available for download through the cargo package manager.

cargo install ng-i18n

Building from source

This method required the Rust toolchain to be installed. If you do not already have it get it here.

Clone the repo and move into it

git clone https://github.com/local-interloper/ng-i18n && cd ng-i18n

Compile the project.
```
cargo build --release
```
Move the binary somewhere within your $PATH or %PATH%.
```
sudo cp target/release/ng-i18n /usr/local/bin
```

How to use

Generate your i18n files by running the following command. Please note that they must be in JSON format.

ng extract-i18n --output-path i18n --format json

This should create messages.json under the i18n directory. Then we can create or update our i18n files by running the following command.

ng-i18n update i18n/messages.json de it

The de and it arguments are here used as an example. The angular standard way of naming i18n files is using 2 letters before the ".json" suffix (e.g. messages.de.json) so those are generated from these arguments.

Running that last command should create or update messages.de.json and messages.it.json. In case they already existed before running the command they will be updated with the missing keys from the source i18n file.
