This is a VSCode-based frontend internationalization (i18n) helper plugin that helps developers quickly and conveniently implement code internationalization, avoiding tedious switching and comparison. This plugin is a secondary development based on copy-json-path (some features have been added or removed) and provides additional useful functionalities.
✨ Features
🔍 Quickly find existing i18n entries (select Chinese text, right-click, and choose a replacement format to auto-replace)
🚀 One-click replacement of selected text with an i18n path
🤖 AI-powered automatic generation of i18n keys and automatic insertion into the configured file and JSON path (based on iFlytek Spark AI)
📝 Support for multiple custom i18n formats (t, $t, {{t}}, etc.)
💾 Automatically save newly added i18n entries
🎯 Customizable i18n file path settings
📺 Demo
✨ Feature 1 - Quickly copy JSON path within a JSON file
✨ Feature 2 - Select text and replace it with a JSON path in multiple formats
✨ Feature 3 - AI-powered generation of i18n keys and automatic insertion into specific JSON paths
If the generated key already exists, the plugin will notify you to modify and insert again.

🔧 Configuration
Configure the following settings in VSCode:
Set the format for copying JSON paths when right-clicking in a JSON file. A default format and three custom formats are available.
Set the path to your i18n files. Customizable paths with different priorities (higher priority paths are searched first).
Configure key-value pairs for new i18n entries, specifying the target file and JSON path.
Set the API key for iFlytek Spark AI to enable AI-generated i18n keys and custom prompts.
Configure text replacement formats when selecting content for internationalization. Three formats are available and can be customized.
📝 How to Use
Copy i18n Path
In a JSON file, select the key you want to copy.
Right-click and choose a format to copy the JSON path in different styles (customizable formats).
Replace with i18n Path
Select the text to replace.
Right-click and choose Replace with i18n Path, supporting three formats (configurable in settings):
Format 1: t('path.to.key')
Format 2: {{t('path.to.key')}}
Format 3: $t('path.to.key')
Add New i18n Entries
Select the text and right-click to choose a replacement format.
If no matching i18n entry is found, an input box will appear.
Manually enter the key or click the AI icon to generate one automatically.
Confirm the key, and it will be automatically saved and used for replacement.
