Usage

django-pipeline-i18next takes input from Yaml and converts it to namespaced javascript object which can then be referenced from your i18next initalizer. The following is an example of usage:

Create your localized message files:

#en_US.yml
global:
  hello: Hello World!

Add the following to your settings:

# settings.py

PIPELINE_I18NEXT_NAMESPACE = 'Messages'   # defaults to : 'Locale'

PIPELINE_COMPILERS = (
  'pipeline_i18next.i18next.I18nextCompiler',
)

# add the message files to PIPELINE_JS
PIPELINE_JS = {
    'bundle': {
        'source_filenames': (
          ...
          'locales/en_US.yml',
          ...
        ),
        'output_filename': 'js/bundle.js',
    }
}

The Yaml file will be compiled down to a javascript file namespaced under window.[PIPELINE_I18NEXT_NAMESPACE]

Next, in your initialization for i18next, add the following:

//init.js

i18n.init({ resStore: window.Messages });

And that's it!
