An i18n library based on the banana message format
Project description
A localization library for Python based on the banana message file format. This library was originally developed inside of Pywikibot and then forked into a separate library for easier reuse.
Message specification
For the most part we use the upstream banana file format, with a few Python tweaks.
Parameters to messages are specified through printf-style formatting:
"bot-change-page": "Bot: Changing %(num)s {{PLURAL:%(num)d|page|pages}}.",
All parameters are named. Gender, grammar, and bidi support has not yet been implemented.
Usage
Assuming the directory with your JSON files is named i18n:
from banana_i18n import BananaI18n
banana = BananaI18n('i18n')
text = banana.translate('de', 'example')
Parameters must be passed as a dictionary:
text = banana.translate('de', 'bot-change-page', {'num': 2})
If the parameter is going to be used in {{PLURAL:}}, it must be the int type.
A list of all localized languages can be accesssed through banana.known_languages().
