An Extension that helps the user generating translation strings, and adding them automatically to the corresponding .json files in the project directory, assuming that the user uses ngx-translate/core to localize the project that is being worked on.
Installation
Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter.
An extension that aims to help developers generate translation strings/localize their angular projects. This extension supports Google Translation API so that the user can easily translate any string, granted that he has a Google API key at first hand.
Features
Auto translation of HTML strings as shown in the gif below
Auto translate strings using a google key and automatically add them to the .JSON files
Extension Settings
This extension contributes the following settings:
ngx-translation-extension.TranslationWrappingHTML: Surrounds stored key of translated string by pipe/statement etc.. $key is required for this option to work. Example : {{'$key' | translate }}
ngx-translation-extension.JSONDirectory: Path where to find the translation JSON Files. Example : src/assets/i18n/
ngx-translation-extension.autoFileModify: Automatically modifies transilation files that are specified in the extension settings.
ngx-translation-extension.languageFrom: The source language to be translated from.
ngx-translation-extension.GetTranslationKey: Get Translation Key : Pastes a key from the JSON file (uses the 'from' targeted json file)
ngx-translation-extension.Formats: Pre-defined multiple list of formats to be used for different cases (e.g html pages, ts or js script files, etcc..) Example : {{'$key' | translate }}
ngx-translation-extension.languageTo: The target language to be translated to (Now supports multiple targeted languages by passing ar,es,fr).
ngx-translation-extension.googleAPIKey: Specify a google API key in order to add google translations to the target language. Leave empty to paste the selected text to the target translated file key as it is.
Ideas :
Make a presets list so that the user is able to select any preset he defines in the settings
Give out an option to search and paste the keys that are read in the json file
