i18-generate-hash.js - Overview​

  1. Overview This file generates a JSON file containing checksums of the i18n translation files. It reads all JSON files in the public/locales directory, calculates a checksum for each file's content, and writes the checksums to i18n-translations-hash.json.

  2. Detailed Documentation

generateChecksum(str, algorithm, encoding)​

  • Purpose: Calculates a checksum (hash) of a given string using a specified algorithm and encoding.
  • Parameters:
    • str (string): The string to calculate the checksum for.
    • algorithm (string, optional): The hashing algorithm to use (e.g., 'md5', 'sha256'). Defaults to 'md5'.
    • encoding (string, optional): The encoding of the output checksum (e.g., 'hex', 'base64'). Defaults to 'hex'.
  • Returns:
    • string: The calculated checksum of the input string.

Variable result​

  • Purpose: Stores the mapping between language and the corresponding checksum.

Glob and File System operations​

  • Purpose: The code uses glob to find all JSON files under the public/locales directory. For each file, it reads the file content, extracts the language code from the file path, calculates the checksum of the content using the generateChecksum function, and stores the language-checksum pair in the result object. Finally, it writes the result object to a JSON file named i18n-translations-hash.json.
