This library contains traits and macros to conveniently embed the output of cargo-i18n into your application binary in order to localize it at runtime.
Currently this library depends on rust-embed to perform the actual embedding of the language files. This may change in the future to make the library more convenient to use.
The i18n-embed
crate has the following optional Cargo features:
desktop-requester
LanguageRequester
trait called DesktopLanguageRequester
for the desktop platform (windows, mac, linux),which makes use of the locale_config crate for resolving the current system locale.web-sys-requester
LanguageRequester
trait called WebLanguageRequester
which makes use of the web-sys crate for resolving the language being requested by the user's web browser in a WASM context.The following is an example for how to derive the required traits on structs, and localize your binary using this library:
```rust use i18nembed::{I18nEmbed, LanguageLoader, DesktopLanguageRequester}; use rustembed::RustEmbed;
struct Translations;
struct MyLanguageLoader;
fn main() { let language_loader = MyLanguageLoader {};
// Use the language requester for the desktop platform (linux, windows, mac).
// There is also a requester available for the web-sys WASM platform called
// WebLanguageRequester, or you can implement your own.
let language_requester = DesktopLanguageRequester::new();
Translations::select(&language_requester, &language_loader);
} ```
