YAML

Languine supports YAML files as a source format, which is commonly used in Ruby on Rails, Laravel, and other frameworks. This format supports nested structures, arrays, and complex data types.

Setting Up

First, make sure you've got a languine.json config file in your project root. Here's an example:

{
  "locale": {
    "source": "en",
    "targets": ["sv", "de", "fr"]
  },
  "files": {
    "yaml": {
      "include": ["config/locales/[locale].yml"]
    }
  }
}

Translating

With your config set, run:

npmyarnpnpmbun
npx languine@latest translate

When you run this command, Languine will:

• ◇Load your source YAML file (e.g., config/locales/en.yml)
• ◇Detect any new or modified translation strings
• ◇Generate translations for your target languages
• ◇Create or update the target language YAML files (e.g., config/locales/sv.yml)
• ◇Preserve nested structures and formatting
