Overview

The culture is expected in language-COUNTRY format e.g. en-GB (see below for full list of standard cultures)



The get function will fall back in the following order:

* looks for the matching culture value (e.g. de-DE)

* looks for a matching language value (e.g. de)

* returns the first in the listing



Examples



A basic string example

javascript

	var locals = { 

		'en': 'Local hi', 

		'de': 'German (de) Local hi', 

		'de-DE': 'German (de-DE) Local hi' 

	};

	

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals); //returns 'Local hi' 

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'en'); //returns 'Local hi' 	

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de'); //returns 'German (de) Local hi' 	

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de-DE'); //returns 'German (de-DE) Local hi' 

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de-AT'); //returns 'German (de) Local hi' 		

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'does not exist!'); //returns 'Local hi'





An object example

javascript

	var locals = { 

		'en': { 'message': 'Local hi' }, 

		'de': { 'message': 'German (de) Local hi' }, 

		'de-DE': { 'message': 'German (de-DE) Local hi' }

	};

	

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals); //returns { 'message': 'Local hi' } 

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'en'); //returns { 'message': 'Local hi' }	

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de'); //returns { 'message': 'German (de) Local hi' }

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de-DE'); //returns { 'message': 'German (de-DE) Local hi' }

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'de-AT'); //returns { 'message': 'German (de) Local hi' }		

	var result = localizeReader.get(locals, 'does not exist!'); //returns { 'message': 'Local hi' }
