In order to export language files to a service or an API, typesafe-i18n provides an exporter functionality.

There exists an official plugin for Inlang. It allows you to use typesafe-i18n together with the tooling Inlang provides. You can find it here.

You have to write your own logic to call the readTranslationFromDisk function, then map the dictionary-representation to a specific format and then send it to your translation service of choice. Here is an example how this could look like:

See here on more information how to set up typesafe-i18n.

npm install typesafe-i18n

An example implementation can be seen in the export.ts-file.

you need to run this script during development or as a CI-process and not at runtime. Create an own file with the implementation and run it with tsx or something similar.

To run this example execute following command in your terminal:

npm run i18n:export

You should see the result of the exporter show up in your terminal.

In a real world implementation you would have to write your own logic to send the data to a service.

Please share your implementation in a PR. typesafe-i18n wants to provide built-in exporter-packages in the future.

The typesafe-i18n/exporter package provides following:

interface ExportLocaleMapping {
   locale: string
   translations: BaseTranslation | BaseTranslation[]
   namespaces: string[]
}

Can be used to export translations from a single locale.

(locale: Locale) => Promise<ExportLocaleMapping>

Can be used to export translations from all locales.

() => Promise<ExportLocaleMapping[]>
