=======
go-i18n is a Go [package](#i18n-package) and a [command](#goi18n-command) that helps you translate Go programs into multiple languages.
* Supports [pluralized strings](http://cldr.unicode.org/index/cldr-spec/plural-rules) for all 200+ languages in the [Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR)](http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/28/supplemental/language_plural_rules.html).
* Code and tests are [automatically generated](https://github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/tree/master/i18n/language/codegen) from [CLDR data](http://cldr.unicode.org/index/downloads)
* Supports strings with named variables using [text/template](http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/) syntax.
-* Translation files are simple JSON or YAML.
+* Translation files are simple JSON, TOML or YAML.
* [Documented](http://godoc.org/github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n) and [tested](https://travis-ci.org/nicksnyder/go-i18n)!

+To use a different file format, write a parser for the format and add the parsed translations using [AddTranslation](https://godoc.org/github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/i18n#AddTranslation).

+Flat Format
+-------------
+
+You can also write shorter translation files with flat format.
+E.g the example above can be written in this way:
+
+```json
+{
+ "d_days": {
+ "one": "{{.Count}} day.",
+ "other": "{{.Count}} days."
+ },
+
+ "my_height_in_meters": {
+ "one": "I am {{.Count}} meter tall.",
+ "other": "I am {{.Count}} meters tall."
+ },
+
+ "person_greeting": {
+ "other": "Hello {{.Person}}"
+ },
+
+ "person_unread_email_count": {
+ "one": "{{.Person}} has {{.Count}} unread email.",
+ "other": "{{.Person}} has {{.Count}} unread emails."
+ },
+
+ "person_unread_email_count_timeframe": {
+ "one": "{{.Person}} has {{.Count}} unread email in the past {{.Timeframe}}.",
+ "other": "{{.Person}} has {{.Count}} unread emails in the past {{.Timeframe}}."
+ },
+
+ "program_greeting": {
+ "other": "Hello world"
+ },
+
+ "your_unread_email_count": {
+ "one": "You have {{.Count}} unread email.",
+ "other": "You have {{.Count}} unread emails."
+ }
+}
+```
+
+The logic of flat format is, what it is structure of structures
+and name of substructures (ids) should be always a string.
+If there is only one key in substructure and it is "other", then it's non-plural
+translation, else plural.
+
+More examples of flat format translation files can be found in [goi18n/testdata/input/flat](https://github.com/nicksnyder/go-i18n/tree/master/goi18n/testdata/input/flat).
