TypeScript

Babely supports TypeScript localization files with full type safety. This format extends JavaScript support with additional TypeScript-specific features and type generation capabilities.

Setting Up

First, make sure you've got a babely.json config file in your project root. Here's an example:

{
  "locale": {
    "source": "en",
    "targets": ["sv", "de", "fr"]
  },
  "files": {
    "ts": {
      "include": ["src/locales/[locale].ts"]
    }
  }
}

Translating

With your config set, run:

npmyarnpnpmbun
npx babely@latest translate

When you run this command, Babely will:

• ◇Load your source TypeScript files (e.g., src/locales/en.ts)
• ◇Detect any new or modified translation strings
• ◇Generate translations for your target languages
• ◇Create or update the target language files (e.g., src/locales/sv.ts)
• ◇Preserve type annotations and interfaces
• ◇Handle nested objects with proper typing
• ◇Maintain code formatting and documentation comments
• ◇Support literal types and union types
