Total.js can translate only phrases wrapped in @(TEXT TO LOCALIZE). First you need to define Total.js delegate onLocale which can set the language for each request:

F.onLocale = function(req) {

    // req.query.*
    // req.cookie('cookie_name');
    // req.headers['*']

    switch (req.query.langauge) {
        case 'sk':
        case 'cz':
        case 'ru':
            return req.query.langauge;
    }

    return 'en';
};
  • framework tries to find a resource file in the form /resources/YOURLANGUAGE.resource
  • if the file exists then the framework applies localization
  • otherwise the framework will use a default resource called: default.resource (if exists)
  • otherwise the framework use the phrases defined in views

How to create a resource file with localization?

I have prepared great utilites for localization, just install Total.js framework as a global library from NPM: $ sudo npm install -g total.js

$ cd yourapp
$ totaljs --translate

Total.js terminal app will create translate.resource file. Localize this file and copy it to /resources/YOURLANGUAGE.resource and restart app. That's all.
