locale-lib

This is a simple lib for localisation your services.

Installation

Installation is possible using the Python pip command line tool. For you the command to install this library may look like this:

pip3 install locale-lib

Usage

To use localisation package create instance of LocaleManager and get strings via property.

from locale_lib import LocaleManager
from datetime import datetime
locale_man = LocaleManager('./locales').setup()  # FileNotFoundError if not found

locale = locale_man.get(input('enter your country code: '))

...

print(locale.greeting_message)
print(locale.f_time_now.format(time=datetime.now()))

./locales/locale_en:

greeting_message: hello, user!
f_time_now: Current datetime is:/ {time}

./locales/locale_es:

greeting_message: hola, usuario!
f_time_now: La fecha actual es:/ {time}

./locales/locale_ru:

greeting_message: Привет, пользователь!!
f_time_now: Сейчас:/ {time}

Tips

• : must be replaced to :/ (variable_name: value is:/ value)
• To add new line use \n in locale file
• locale.<string> (or locale.get(<string>)) returning instance of str class and might be formatted via format() method
• Locale file should look like locale_<country_code>.lc, other will be skipped

How it's meant to be used

• Standard strings should look like var_name: Variable value
• F-strings should look like f_var_name: Variable {param_a} {param_d} {param_c} value
