How To Add git18n.config.json File to Your Github Repository?

To be able to find copywriting and translation files in your Github repository, you need to add a git18n.config.json file to the root of your repository:

{
  "defaultLocale": "", // E.g. "en"
  "locales": [], // E.g. ["en", "de"]
  "path": "" // E.g. "src/locales/**/*.json" or "src/locales/*.json"
}

Example 1: Single directory for all translation files

{
  "defaultLocale": "en",
  "locales": ["en", "de"],
  "path": "path/to/locales/*.json"
}

This will find 2 files: path/to/locales/en.json and path/to/locales/de.json.

Example 2: Namespaced translation files

{
  "defaultLocale": "en",
  "locales": ["en", "de"],
  "path": "path/to/locales/**/*.json" // Note the double asterisk ** matches the language code
}

This will load files from the following folders: path/to/locales/en/*.json and path/to/locales/de/*.json.

Example 3: Only copywriting

If you only have copywriting files, you can use the following config:

{
  "defaultLocale": "en",
  "locales": ["en"],
  "path": "path/to/locales/copywriting/*.json"
}
