Spring

This example assumes that you do not have manually created messages.properties files yet. In case you do, you can follow this guide on creating multiple sources of localized messages and adjusting the output filenames accordingly.

Step 1 - Create a translations file

Create a mooi directory

mkdir mooi

Within that directory, create a translations.yaml file with your strings

# ./mooi/translations.yaml

languages:    # English is assumed by default, you don't need to list it
  - de
  - fr
  - ru
  # etc.
entries:
  - key: myStringId
    value: Hello World
    description: A message that is shown on the main screen of the app
  # etc.

Step 2 - Define an output format

Within mooi directory, create a config.yaml file:

# ./mooi/config.yaml

formats:
  - outputPath: src/main/resources/messages-{{languageCode}}.properties
    format: |
    {{#each translations}}
      {{key}}={{{value}}}
    {{/each}}

Step 3 - Run mooi

Run the following command:

npx mooi-cli translate --openAiKey {YOUR OPEN AI KEY}

You are good to go! Use the generated translations as you normally would.
