Disallow English text in string literals
npm install eslint-plugin-i18n-textDisallow English text in string literals.
Embedding messages in JavaScript files prevents them from being translated into
other languages. An alternative is to embed the translated text in the markup
and find it with JavaScript.
``html`
`js`
const el = document.querySelector('.js-message')
el.textContent = el.getAttribute('data-success-message')
This pattern allows the web framework that's generating the markup to use
its translation library to insert the appropriate translated text.
You'll first need to install ESLint:
``
$ npm install eslint --save-dev
Next, install eslint-plugin-i18n-text:
``
$ npm install eslint-plugin-i18n-text --save-dev
Note: If you installed ESLint globally (using the -g flag) then you must also install eslint-plugin-i18n-text globally.
Add i18n-text to the plugins section of your .eslintrc configuration file. You can omit the eslint-plugin- prefix:
`json`
{
"plugins": [
"i18n-text"
],
"rules": {
"i18n-text/no-en": 2
}
}
```
npm install
npm test
