$3

``
npm install --save @phrase/i18next-backend
`

`javascript
import i18n from "i18next";
import { I18nextPhraseBackend } from "@phrase/i18next-backend";

i18n
.use(I18nextPhraseBackend)
.init({
fallbackLng: 'en',
backend: {
distribution: 'DISTRIBUTION_ID',
secret: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_SECRET',
appVersion: '1.0.0',
}
});
`

Caching

The library is caching translations and won't check for new translations for 5 minutes. This can be configured by setting the cacheExpirationTime option in the backend configuration for testing purposes. It's recommended to use at least 5 minutes in production.

`javascript
i18n
.use(I18nextPhraseBackend)
.init({
fallbackLng: 'en',
backend: {
distribution: 'DISTRIBUTION_ID',
secret: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_SECRET',
appVersion: '1.0.0',
cacheExpirationTime: 60 * 5, // time in seconds
}
});
