Translating messages inside Javascript files

[Lanfio Orelli]

While it is possible to use df_translate() and {translate ...} to do i18n on messages in Xataface php scripts, it's not clear to me how I could achieve the same in Xataface Javascript scripts.

Could you please help me ?

You can use the Dataface_Application::addJSStrings() method to push translations up to Javascript for their use.

Then use the xataface.lang object.

Examples: 

Adding strings:

https://github.com/shannah/xataface/blob/44c1adde7c3c3ea50cddd8d3ed8fb2ea47751dad/modules/g2/g2.php#L59-L63

$app->addJSStrings(array(
   'themes.g2.VIEW_SEARCH_RESULTS' => df_translate('themes.g2.VIEW_SEARCH_RESULTS', 'View Search Results'),
   'themes.g2.SEARCH_RESULTS' => df_translate('themes.g2.SEARCH_RESULTS', 'Search Results'),
   'findwidgets.date.from' => df_translate('findwidgets.date.from', 'From'),
   'findwidgets.date.to' => df_translate('findwidgets.date.to', 'to')
));

Using strings from javascript:
