Translated Messages

Adding new message

Add message config

The top-level message file, intl_messages.arb, contains the config for all messages. To add a new message, add the following into intl_messages.arb:

"awesomeNewMessage": "An awesome new message",
"@awesomeNewMessage": {
  "description": "Example for how to add a new message",
  "type": "text",
  "placeholders": {}
}

Add localized translations

After the top-level message is added, add localized message by adding the following into intl_[locale].arb (e.g. intl_zh.arb):

// for intl_zh.arb
"awesomeNewMessage": "一条新信息",
"@awesomeNewMessage": {
  "description": "新信息例子",
  "type": "text"
}
// for intl_en.arb
"awesomeNewMessage": "An awesome new message",
"@awesomeNewMessage": {
  "description": "Example for how to add a new message",
  "type": "text"
}

Generate dart code from translations

flutter pub run intl_translation:generate_from_arb --output-dir=lib/services/i18n/wrappers lib/services/i18n/i18n.dart lib/services/i18n/messages/*.arb

note: assuming running from the Flutter project root
