I18NFivem 1.0.1

An Adaptation of https://github.com/xleon/I18N-Portable for Fivem!

I18N-Fivem

Simple and cross platform internationalization/translations for Fivem

• Client-Side ready
• Simple to use: "key".Translate().
• Simple and fluent initialization setup.
• Readable locale files (.txt with key/value pairs).
• Support for custom file formats (json, xml, etc)
• Light weight
• No dependencies.
• Well tested

Setup locales

• In your PCL/Core project, create a directory called "Locales".
• Create a {languageCode}.txt file for each language you want to support. languageCode can be a two letter ISO code or a culture name like "en-US". See full list here.
• Set "Build Action" to "Embedded Resource" on the properties of each file

Locale content sample

# key = value (the key will be the same across locales)
one = uno
two = dos
three = tres 
four = cuatro
five = cinco
  
# Enums are supported
Animals.Dog = Perro
Animals.Cat = Gato
Animals.Rat = Rata
Animals.Tiger = Tigre
Animals.Monkey = Mono
 
# Support for string.Format()
stars.count = Tienes {0} estrellas
 
TextWithLineBreakCharacters = Line One\nLine Two\r\nLine Three
 
Multiline = Line One
    Line Two
    Line Three

Other file formats (including custom) supported

Fluent initialization

I18N.Current
    .SetNotFoundSymbol("$") // Optional: when a key is not found, it will appear as $key$ (defaults to "$")
    .SetFallbackLocale("en") // Optional but recommended: locale to load in case the system locale is not supported
    .SetThrowWhenKeyNotFound(true) // Optional: Throw an exception when keys are not found (recommended only for debugging)
    .SetLogger(text => Debug.WriteLine(text)) // action to output traces
    .SetResourcesFolder("OtherLocales") // Optional: The directory containing the resource files (defaults to "Locales")
    .Init(GetType().GetTypeInfo().Assembly); // assembly where locales live

Usage

string one = "one".Translate();
string notification = "Mailbox.Notification".Translate("Diego", 3); // same as string.Format(params). Output: Hello Diego, you've got 3 emails
string missingKey = "missing".Translate(); // if the key is not found the output will be $key$. Output: $missing$
string giveMeNull = "missing".TranslateOrNull(); // Output: null

string dog = Animals.Dog.Translate(); // translate enum value (Animals is an Enum backed up in the locale file with "Animals.Dog = Perro")

List<string> animals = I18N.Current.TranslateEnumToList<Animals>(); 

List<Tuple<Animals, string>> animals = I18N.Current.TranslateEnumToTupleList<Animals>();
string dog = animals[0].Item2; // Perro

Dictionary<Animals, string> animals = I18N.Current.TranslateEnumToDictionary<Animals>();
string dog = animals[Animals.Dog]; // Perro

// List of supported languages (present in the "Locales" folder) in case you need to show a picker list
List<PortableLanguage> languages = I18N.Current.Languages; // Each `PortableLanguage` has 2 strings: Locale and DisplayName

// change language on runtime
I18N.Current.Language = language; // instance of PortableLanguage

// change language on runtime (option 2)
I18N.Current.Locale = "fr";
