## Installation

Add `exi18n` to your list of dependencies and to `applications` in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
# mix.exs

def deps do
[
{:exi18n, "~> 0.9.0"},
]
end

def application do
[applications: [
:exi18n,
]]
end
```

## Configuration

Add configuration to your `config/config.exs`:

```elixir
# config.exs

config :exi18n,
default_locale: "en",
locales: ~w(en),
fallback: false,
loader: :yml,
loader_options: %{path: "priv/locales"},
var_prefix: "%{",
var_suffix: "}"
```

### Configuration parameters

| Option | Description | Default |
| :-- | :-- | :--: |
| default_locale | Default locale in your application. | `"en"` |
| locales | Supported locales. | `["en"]` |
| fallback | Fallback to default locale if translation empty. | `false` |
| loader | Translation loader. Supported types: `:yml`, `:http`, `MyApp.Loader`. | `:yml` |
| loader_options | Translation loader options. | `%{}` |
| var_prefix | Prefix for values in translations. | `"%{"` |
| var_suffix | Suffix for values in translations. | `"}"` |

## Loaders

### YAML

This loader will use yaml files from `path` to load translations.

#### Module

`ExI18n.Loader.YAML`

#### Dependencies

```elixir
# mix.exs

def deps do
[
{:exi18n, "~> 0.9.0"},
{:yaml_elixir, "~> 2.0"},
]
end

def application do
[applications: [
:exi18n,
:yaml_elixir,
]]
end
```

#### Configuration

| Option | Required | Description |
| :-- | :--: | :-- |
| path | **Yes** | Path to locale files. |

```elixir
# config.exs

config :exi18n,
loader: :yml,
loader_options: %{
path: "priv/locales" # or {MyHelper, :path, ["priv/locales"]}
}
```

### Custom

#### Module

`MyApp.Loader`

Make sure that your custom loader has `load/2` function that accepts `locale` and `options` as parameters and returns `Map` with translations.

Example:

```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Loader do
def load(locale, _options) do
%{
"en" => %{...},
"de" => %{...}
}[locale]
end
end
```

#### Dependencies

```elixir
# mix.exs

def deps do
[
{:exi18n, "~> 0.9.0"},
]
end

def application do
[applications: [
:exi18n,
]]
end
```

#### Configuration

```elixir
# config.exs

config :exi18n,
loader: MyApp.Loader,
loader_options: %{my_config: "value"}
```
