The updated strategy wraps parts of strings in square brackets, and hence "marks" the beginning and the end of the part of the string. Differential Revision: https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D121078 |

Fluent
fluent-rs is a Rust implementation of Project Fluent, a localization
framework designed to unleash the entire expressive power of natural language
translations.
Project Fluent keeps simple things simple and makes complex things possible. The syntax used for describing translations is easy to read and understand. At the same time it allows, when necessary, to represent complex concepts from natural languages like gender, plurals, conjugations, and others.
Usage
use fluent::{FluentBundle, FluentResource};
use unic_langid::langid;
fn main() {
let ftl_string = "hello-world = Hello, world!".to_owned();
let res = FluentResource::try_new(ftl_string)
.expect("Failed to parse an FTL string.");
let langid_en = langid!("en-US");
let mut bundle = FluentBundle::new(vec![langid_en]);
bundle.add_resource(&res)
.expect("Failed to add FTL resources to the bundle.");
let msg = bundle.get_message("hello-world")
.expect("Message doesn't exist.");
let mut errors = vec![];
let pattern = msg.value
.expect("Message has no value.");
let value = bundle.format_pattern(&pattern, None, &mut errors);
assert_eq!(&value, "Hello, world!");
}
Status
The implementation is in pre-1.0 mode and supports Fluent Syntax 1.0, and Fluent API 0.14.. Consult the list of milestones for more information about release planning and scope.
FluentBundle, which is the main struct at the moment, is intended to remain
a low level API.
There is a number of higher level APIs like fluent-resmgr and
fluent-fallback intended to wrap around it and provide better ergonomics
for bindings and direct usage.
Those higher level APIs are not mature yet enough to be included in this package,
but will get added once they are.

Learn the FTL syntax
FTL is a localization file format used for describing translation resources. FTL stands for Fluent Translation List.
FTL is designed to be simple to read, but at the same time allows to represent complex concepts from natural languages like gender, plurals, conjugations, and others.
hello-user = Hello, { $username }!
Read the Fluent Syntax Guide in order to learn more about the syntax. If you're a tool author you may be interested in the formal EBNF grammar.
