The easiest way to setup for localizations is to do local aliases for
basically anything important.
The idea is to have definition files (like localization.fr.js,
localization.en.js) and abstracted variable names. For instance, you'd
do things like:
jQuery.fn[loc.validationEngine] = function(settings){
allRules = loc.allRules;
}
And in the localization files:
// en.js
loc = {
validationEngine: 'validationEngine',
allRules: {'required': {'regex': 'none', 'alertText': '* This field
is required'}};
}
// fr.js
loc = {
validationEngine: 'frenchForValidationEngine',
allRules:{'frForRequired': {'frForRegex': 'frForNone',
'frForAlertText': '* Ce champs est requis'}};
}
Working like that will allow you to create a fully localized plugin.
If you just want to localize some output strings, and not the actual
function names, the same sort of methodology applies. It all depends
on how you limit your scope.
Also, sorry about the "frForRequired" stuff. I don't speak a lick of
french. :(
