const msgModule = require("<path>/messages");
const language = "";
const msg = msgModule.Messages.getLocalize(language);
//get text by keyword common.ok
msg.common.ok;
//get text by keyword common.welcome, has parameter
msg.common.welcome("test");

Typescript

import { Messages } from "<path>/messages";
const language = "";
const msg = Messages.getLocalize(language);
//get text by keyword common.ok
msg.common.ok;
//get text by keyword common.welcome, has parameter
msg.common.welcome("test");

Dart
