i18next - 使用上下文时动态添加性别

Question

I have the following:

t('translations::How are you?', { context: this.props.me.gender })

I'm currently using i18next-scanner to auto generate a JSON namespace file. The problem I am having is when I use context, I get:

"How are you?": "How are you?"     // fallback
"How are you?_": "How are you?"    // context

What I'd really like to happen is whenever context is used in i18n, I'd like male and female to be generated like so:

"How are you?": "How are you?"
"How are you?_male": "How are you?"
"How are you?_female": "How are you?"

I haven't found a good way to dynamically add these keys. What things can I try?

Answer 1

I'v reviewed the libs source code, from the tests, it looks like this lib is not supports this.

But, from this code , if your options.context is a function, it will be invoked, that means that you will able to modify it. Check this code: https://codesandbox.io/s/laughing-ptolemy-vd1xb

As you can see, I've managed to change the context type, but the lib is not supporting your case (base on this line ) it adds only one context.

It can be a really simple PR :]

Edit I've added this functionality toi18next-scanner , now you can specify contextDefaultValues - a list of values that will be used in a case of dynamic context values.

// i18next-scanner.config.js

module.exports = {
    input: [
        'app/**/*.{js,jsx}',
        // Use ! to filter out files or directories
        '!app/**/*.spec.{js,jsx}',
        '!app/i18n/**',
        '!**/node_modules/**',
    ],
    output: './',
    options: {
        ...
        contextDefaultValues: ['male', 'female'] // <--- specify this option  
        ...
    },
    ...
};
