The static analyze tool for finding, marking and removing unused and missing i18n translations in your JavaScript project
In the diverse world of JavaScript development, maintaining and managing internationalization (i18n) translations can often become a complex and tedious task. The i18n-unused tool emerges as a solution designed to streamline this process by identifying and removing unused or missing translations within your project. Whether you’re working on a smaller web application or a larger enterprise-level system, this tool aims to make the management of localization assets more efficient.
The installation process is straightforward, requiring only a simple command using npm or yarn. Once set up, developers can benefit from a range of configurable options, providing flexibility in how translations are detected and processed. With i18n-unused, you can enhance code quality and reduce unnecessary clutter caused by unused localization keys.
Comprehensive Configuration: Includes a flexible configuration file (i18n-unused.config.js) that allows you to tailor the tool to your project’s specific needs.
Locale and Translations Paths: Easily specify paths to search for both locale and translation files, ensuring that the tool only processes relevant directories.
File Extensions Support: Configure the allowed file extensions for both locales and translation files, accommodating a variety of JavaScript frameworks and libraries.
Custom Key Checkers: Implement custom functions to determine if a translation key is actively used, allowing for advanced validation before removal.
Translation Key Matchers: Utilize Regular Expressions to match translation keys in your source files, which makes it adaptable to different coding styles.
Marking Unused Translations: The ability to automatically mark unused translations in the source code, making it easy to identify areas that require attention.
Git State Integration: Optional feature to display the git state change tree, providing insights into how translation changes affect the overall codebase.
Contextual Translation Support: Manage context-based translations seamlessly, improving accuracy in multilingual scenarios where context plays a crucial role.
