I want to create a dynamical slider which depends on the page.
security_signin: {
slide1: 'Kitten1',
slide2: 'Kitten2',
},
signup: {
slide1: 'Kitten1',
slide2: 'Kitten2',
slide3: 'Kitten3'
}
The thing is I want to render in my component my slider in function of the number of slide.
So this is something like this:
<slide v-for="(item, index) in $t('message.'+page).length">
<p v-html="$t('message.'+page+'.slide'+index)"></p>
</slide>
However I do not manage to access properly messages this way.
Since $t('message.'+page).length
is giving me back the length of the first slide (7 in the Kitten1 case).
Is there a way to access i18n without recreating an instance of it ?
It's very simple, access the messages property from $i18n
. For instance:
<slide v-for="(item, index) in Object.keys($i18n.messages[$i18n.fallbackLocale].message[page]).length">
<p v-html="$t('message.'+page+'.slide'+index)"></p>
</slide>
In more detail, $i18n.messages
holds all your translations, e.g.
en: {
security_signin: {
slide1: 'Kitten1',
slide2: 'Kitten2',
},
signup: {
slide1: 'Kitten1',
slide2: 'Kitten2',
slide3: 'Kitten3'
}
}
Subset a locale of your choice, $i18n.fallbackLocale
for the fallback locale or $i18n.locale
for your current locale. You should obtain your javascript object.
Be very careful, when you translate with $t()
any missing translations are recovered from the fallback locale. But when you access the javascript object directly, you give up this safety net. Some locales may have missing keys.
In this case fallbackLocale
suffices because we don't want to access the translations, only the number of elements.
