Commands

Invoking intl combiner without any options(except save or merge command) will save or merge all saved messages grouped into their respective locales.

combiner save
// or merge
combiner merge

In order to change the findBy value in the configuration, based on their creation config, the --findBy/-f option can be used.

Configuration

To configure intl combiner navigate to the ~/.combinerrc.json & ~/.combinerrc.js or ~/.combinerrc file and modify any of the options to match your own preference. To reset back to the default values, simply delete the config file from your home directory.

The following illustrates all the available options with their respective values.

{
	"findBy": "en",
	"context": "./src/",
	"messages": "**/messages.js",
	"diffPath": "locales/diff.json",
	"locales": [
		{
			"name": "en",
			"path": "locales/en.json"
		},
		{
			"name": "fr",
			"path": "locales/fr.json"
		}
