fluent-templates lets you to easily integrate Fluent localisation into
your Rust application or library. It does this by providing a high level
"loader" API that loads fluent strings based on simple language negotiation,
and the FluentLoader struct which is a Loader agnostic container type
that comes with optional trait implementations for popular templating
engines such as handlebars or tera that allow you to be able to use your
localisations in your templates with no boilerplate.
Currently this crate provides two different kinds of loaders that cover two main use cases.
-
static_loader!— A procedural macro that loads your fluent resources at compile-time into your binary and creates a newStaticLoaderstatic variable that allows you to access the localisations.static_loader!is most useful when you want to localise your application and want to ship your fluent resources with your binary. -
ArcLoader— A struct that loads your fluent resources at run-time usingArcas its backing storage.ArcLoaderis most useful for when you want to be able to change and/or update localisations at run-time, or if you're writing a developer tool that wants to provide fluent localisation in your own application such as a static site generator.
The easiest way to use fluent-templates is to use the static_loader!
procedural macro that will create a new StaticLoader static variable.
fluent_templates::static_loader! {
// Declare our `StaticLoader` named `LOCALES`.
static LOCALES = {
// The directory of localisations and fluent resources.
locales: "./tests/locales",
// The language to falback on if something is not present.
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Optional: A fluent resource that is shared with every locale.
core_locales: "./tests/locales/core.ftl",
};
}You can also modify each FluentBundle on initialisation to be able to
change configuration or add resources from Rust.
use fluent_bundle::FluentResource;
use fluent_templates::static_loader;
use once_cell::sync::Lazy;
static_loader! {
// Declare our `StaticLoader` named `LOCALES`.
static LOCALES = {
// The directory of localisations and fluent resources.
locales: "./tests/locales",
// The language to falback on if something is not present.
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Optional: A fluent resource that is shared with every locale.
core_locales: "./tests/locales/core.ftl",
// Optional: A function that is run over each fluent bundle.
customise: |bundle| {
// Since this will be called for each locale bundle and
// `FluentResource`s need to be either `&'static` or behind an
// `Arc` it's recommended you use lazily initialised
// static variables.
static CRATE_VERSION_FTL: Lazy<FluentResource> = Lazy::new(|| {
let ftl_string = String::from(
concat!("-crate-version = {}", env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION"))
);
FluentResource::try_new(ftl_string).unwrap()
});
bundle.add_resource(&CRATE_VERSION_FTL);
}
};
}fluent-templates will collect all subdirectories that match a valid
Unicode Language Identifier and bundle all fluent files found in
those directories and map those resources to the respective identifier.
fluent-templates will recurse through each language directory as needed
and will respect any .gitignore or .ignore files present.

You can use the Loader trait to lookup a given fluent resource, and
provide any additional arguments as needed with lookup_with_args.
# In `locales/en-US/main.ftl`
hello-world = Hello World!
greeting = Hello { $name }!
# In `locales/fr/main.ftl`
hello-world = Bonjour le monde!
greeting = Bonjour { $name }!
# In `locales/de/main.ftl`
hello-world = Hallo Welt!
greeting = Hallo { $name }!use std::collections::HashMap;
use unic_langid::{LanguageIdentifier, langid};
use fluent_templates::{Loader, static_loader};
const US_ENGLISH: LanguageIdentifier = langid!("en-US");
const FRENCH: LanguageIdentifier = langid!("fr");
const GERMAN: LanguageIdentifier = langid!("de");
static_loader! {
static LOCALES = {
locales: "./tests/locales",
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Removes unicode isolating marks around arguments, you typically
// should only set to false when testing.
customise: |bundle| bundle.set_use_isolating(false),
};
}
fn main() {
assert_eq!("Hello World!", LOCALES.lookup(&US_ENGLISH, "hello-world"));
assert_eq!("Bonjour le monde!", LOCALES.lookup(&FRENCH, "hello-world"));
assert_eq!("Hallo Welt!", LOCALES.lookup(&GERMAN, "hello-world"));
let args = {
let mut map = HashMap::new();
map.insert(String::from("name"), "Alice".into());
map
};
assert_eq!("Hello Alice!", LOCALES.lookup_with_args(&US_ENGLISH, "greeting", &args));
assert_eq!("Bonjour Alice!", LOCALES.lookup_with_args(&FRENCH, "greeting", &args));
assert_eq!("Hallo Alice!", LOCALES.lookup_with_args(&GERMAN, "greeting", &args));
}With the tera feature you can use FluentLoader as a Tera function.
It accepts a key parameter pointing to a fluent resource and lang for
what language to get that key for. Optionally you can pass extra arguments
to the function as arguments to the resource. fluent-templates will
automatically convert argument keys from Tera's snake_case to the fluent's
preferred kebab-case arguments.
fluent-templates = { version = "*", features = ["tera"] }use fluent_templates::{FluentLoader, static_loader};
static_loader! {
static LOCALES = {
locales: "./tests/locales",
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Removes unicode isolating marks around arguments, you typically
// should only set to false when testing.
customise: |bundle| bundle.set_use_isolating(false),
};
}
fn main() {
let mut tera = tera::Tera::default();
let ctx = tera::Context::default();
tera.register_function("fluent", FluentLoader::new(&*LOCALES));
assert_eq!(
"Hello World!",
tera.render_str(r#"{{ fluent(key="hello-world", lang="en-US") }}"#, &ctx).unwrap()
);
assert_eq!(
"Hello Alice!",
tera.render_str(r#"{{ fluent(key="greeting", lang="en-US", name="Alice") }}"#, &ctx).unwrap()
);
}In handlebars, fluent-templates will read the lang field in your
handlebars::Context while rendering.
fluent-templates = { version = "*", features = ["handlebars"] }use fluent_templates::{FluentLoader, static_loader};
static_loader! {
static LOCALES = {
locales: "./tests/locales",
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Removes unicode isolating marks around arguments, you typically
// should only set to false when testing.
customise: |bundle| bundle.set_use_isolating(false),
};
}
fn main() {
let mut handlebars = handlebars::Handlebars::new();
handlebars.register_helper("fluent", Box::new(FluentLoader::new(&*LOCALES)));
let data = serde_json::json!({"lang": "zh-CN"});
assert_eq!("Hello World!", handlebars.render_template(r#"{{fluent "hello-world"}}"#, &data).unwrap());
assert_eq!("Hello Alice!", handlebars.render_template(r#"{{fluent "greeting" name="Alice"}}"#, &data).unwrap());
}The main helper provided is the {{fluent}} helper. If you have the
following Fluent file:
foo-bar = "foo bar"
placeholder = this has a placeholder { $variable }
placeholder2 = this has { $variable1 } { $variable2 }You can include the strings in your template with
You may also use the {{fluentparam}} helper to specify variables,
especially if you need them to be multiline.
These are called "Unicode Isolating Marks" that used to allow the text to be bidirectional.
You can disable this with FluentBundle::set_isolating_marks being set to false.
static_loader! {
static LOCALES = {
locales: "./tests/locales",
fallback_language: "en-US",
// Removes unicode isolating marks around arguments.
customise: |bundle| bundle.set_use_isolating(false),
};
