ARB (Application Resource Bundle)

NeoIQ Localize supports ARB files, the standard localization format for Flutter applications. This format handles plurals, placeholders, and select expressions while maintaining compatibility with Flutter's intl package.

Setting Up

First, make sure you've got a neoiq-localize.json config file in your project root. Here's an example:

{
  "locale": {
    "source": "en",
    "targets": ["sv", "de", "fr"]
  },
  "files": {
    "arb": {
      "include": ["lib/l10n/intl_[locale].arb"]
    }
  }
}

Translating

With your config set, run:

npx @neoiq/localize@latest translate

When you run this command, NeoIQ Localize will:

• Load your source ARB file (e.g., lib/l10n/intl_en.arb)
• Detect any new or modified translation strings
• Generate translations for your target languages
• Create or update the target language ARB files (e.g., lib/l10n/intl_sv.arb)
• Preserve metadata, placeholders, and plural/select expressions
