Create the ml.js file to define your multilanguage settings and languages:

Vue.use(MLInstaller)

export default new MLCreate({
  initial: 'english',
  save: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
  languages: [
    new MLanguage('english').create({
      title: 'Hello {0}!',
      msg: 'You have {f} friends and {l} likes'
    }),

    new MLanguage('portuguese').create({
      title: 'Oi {0}!',
      msg: 'Você tem {f} amigos e {l} curtidas'
    })
  ]
})

More details:

• MLInstaller: plugin class for install in Vue with Vue.use
• MLCreate: class to define acl settings
  • initial: first language, for startup with your app
  • save: save current language in localStorage
  • languages: array with your languages supported
• MLanguage: class with language generator, create your language with it
  • create: method for create language based in object param

You can define a middleware for execute before all get call. Use this for custom structure app, e.g:

export default new MLCreate({
  ...
  middleware: (component, path) => {
    const newPath = `${component.$options.name}.${path}`
    // you should return newPath
    return newPath
  }
})

PS: in example, all $ml.get call go concate path with component name.

For finish, in your main.js import the ml:

import Vue from 'vue'
import App from './App.vue'
import router from './router'
import './ml'

Vue.config.productionTip = false

new Vue({
  router,
  render: h => h(App)
}).$mount('#app')

Use in components

You can define messages inside your component, use computed propertis with prefix ml

<template>
  <div id="app">
    <p v-text="$ml.get('myMessage')" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import { MLBuilder } from 'vue-multilanguage'

export default {
  name: 'app',
  data () {
    return { friends: 5 }
  },
  computed: {
    mlmyMessage () {
      return new MLBuilder('msg').with('f', this.friends).with('l', 406)
    }
  }
}
</script>

You can also get message direct in template:

<h1 v-text="$ml.with('VueJS').get('title')" />

E.g: display 'Hello VueJS'.

You can get list language in any component using list property:

<button
	v-for="lang in $ml.list"
	:key="lang"
	v-text="lang"
/>

Finish, you can change current language in any component using change method:

<button
	v-for="lang in $ml.list"
	:key="lang"
	@click="$ml.change(lang)"
	v-text="lang"
/>
