React Native

Supported formats: .json (flat/nested), i18next, react-intl (FormatJS)

Quick Start

cd MyReactNativeApp
localekit scan              # Detects React Native project
localekit status --detailed
localekit translate --engine openai --languages de-DE,fr-FR,ja-JP

LocaleKit detects your i18n library from package.json and reads the appropriate JSON format. Supported libraries: i18next, react-intl (FormatJS), and plain flat/nested JSON.

Automate on Build

Add a prebuild script to your package.json to translate before every build:

{
  "scripts": {
    "pretranslate": "localekit translate --engine openai --languages de-DE,fr-FR,ja-JP || true",
    "prebuild": "npm run pretranslate",
    "prestart": "npm run pretranslate",
    "build": "react-native build",
    "start": "react-native start"
  }
}

Now npm run build and npm start will translate missing keys first.

INFO

The || true suffix ensures the build succeeds even if LocaleKit is not installed.
