Getting started

Supporting CSV Templates

The easy_arb_gen package is designed to support two types of CSV templates, offering flexibility in managing localization data for your Flutter projects:

1. Normal CSV Template

Use this template when each row represents a translation key, and each column represents a language. The first column contains the keys, and subsequent columns contain translations for each specified language.

Example:

key, lang1, lang2, lang3,..etc
home_title, Home, ගෙදර, Hogar,..etc

2. Description CSV Template

For more detailed localization, use this template that includes an additional column for descriptions. The first column contains the keys, the second column contains descriptions, and subsequent columns contain translations for each language.

Example:

key, description, lang1, lang2, lang3,...etc
home_title, The title for the home screen, Home, ගෙදර, Hogar,..etc

To use this package, follow these steps:

Step 1: Add the following to your pubspec.yaml file:

easy_arb_gen:
  csv_filepath: "assets/langs/translations.csv"
  output_directory: "lib/l10n"
  output_file_prepend: "app_"
  csv_options:
    langs:
      - en
      - si
      - es
    is_description_have: false

Important Note

When configuring the easy_arb_gen section in your pubspec.yaml file, ensure to set the is_description_have option according to your CSV template:

• For Normal CSV Template (is_description_have: false)
• For Description CSV Template (is_description_have: true)

Step 2: Run the Package and Experience the Magic!

Now that you've configured the easy_arb_gen section in your pubspec.yaml file, it's time to generate your ARB files and experience the magic of easy localization. Follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal in the root directory of your Flutter project.

2. Run the following command:

dart run package:easy_arb_gen
