Buffalo i18n Middleware

i18n middleware

NOTE: v2.0.3 will be the last version of this module and it will be deprecated. Use https://github.com/gobuffalo/middleware instead.

This Buffalo middleware enables i18n features in your app:

• User language detection from configurable sources
• Translation helper using locales bundles from github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n
• Localized views

Installation

This middleware is setup by default on a new Buffalo app:

actions/app.go

var app *buffalo.App

// T is used to provide translations
var T *i18n.Translator

// App is where all routes and middleware for buffalo
// should be defined. This is the nerve center of your
// application.
func App() *buffalo.App {
    if app == nil {
        // [...]

        // Setup and use translations:
        var err error
        if T, err = i18n.New(os.DirFS("locales"), "en"); err != nil {
            app.Stop(err)
        }
        
        app.Use(T.Middleware())
    }
    return app
}

Use i18n.New to create a new instance of the translation module, then add the middleware (T.Middleware()) to the app to enable its features.

See https://gobuffalo.io/docs/localization for further info about Buffalo translation features and configuration.

Additional Context

macOS on Apple M2 Max.

vendored go-i18n

why was go-i18n vendored / what changes were made to the package? also, a newly created project using the buffalo setup guide creates a version that does not have go-i18n vendored. When will this be released?

DateTime and currency ?

This looks pretty good.

I guess adding DateTime and Currency would be good.
What is a translated message has DataTime and Currency in it ?
I would expect these are just variables on the call in to standard translation ?

Running `go get -u` breaks

cannot load github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/i18n: module github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n@latest found (v2.0.3+incompatible), but does not contain package github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/i18n
