Template Information

Name Description
File name strings/flat-swift4.stencil
Configuration example

  inputs: path/to/Localizable.strings
  outputs:
    templateName: flat-swift4
    output: Strings.swift
Language Swift 4
Author Olivier Halligon

When to use it

  • When you need to generate Swift 4 code.
  • If you use unstructured key names for your strings, or a structure that we don't support (yet). If you use "dot-syntax" keys, please check out the structured-swift4 template.

Customization

You can customize some elements of this template by overriding the following parameters when invoking swiftgen. See the dedicated documentation.

Parameter Name Default Value Description
bundle BundleToken.bundle Allows you to set from which bundle strings are loaded from. By default, it'll point to the same bundle as where the generated code is. Note: ignored if lookupFunction parameter is set.
enumName L10n Allows you to change the name of the generated enum containing all string tables.
forceFileNameEnum N/A Setting this parameter will generate an enum <FileName> even if only one FileName was provided as input.
lookupFunction N/A¹ Allows you to set your own custom localization function. The function needs to have as signature: (key: String, table: String) -> String. The parameters of your function can have any name (or even no external name), but if it has named parameters, you must provide the complete function signature, including those named parameters – e.g. yourFunctionName(forKey:table:). Note: if you define this parameter, the bundle parameter will be ignored.
noComments N/A Setting this parameter will disable the comments describing the translation of a key.
publicAccess N/A If set, the generated constants will be marked as public. Otherwise, they'll be declared internal.
  1. If you don't provide a lookupFunction, we will use localizedString(forKey:value:table:) on the bundle parameter instead.

Generated Code

Extract:

internal enum L10n {
  /// Some alert body there
  internal static let alertMessage = L10n.tr("Localizable", "alert__message")
  /// Title of the alert
  internal static let alertTitle = L10n.tr("Localizable", "alert__title")
  /// You have %d apples
  internal static func applesCount(_ p1: Int) -> String {
    return L10n.tr("Localizable", "apples.count", p1)
  }
  /// Those %d bananas belong to %@.
  internal static func bananasOwner(_ p1: Int, _ p2: Any) -> String {
    return L10n.tr("Localizable", "bananas.owner", p1, String(describing: p2))
  }
}

Usage example

// Simple strings
let message = L10n.alertMessage
let title = L10n.alertTitle

// with parameters, note that each argument needs to be of the correct type
let apples = L10n.applesCount(3)
let bananas = L10n.bananasOwner(5, "Olivier")
