L.md

L - is system object, that provides multilingual interface functionality, instance can be obtained in such way:

window.cs.Language.ready().then(function (L) {
	// Use L here
});

Also there is possibility to simplify getting translations with common prefix:

window.cs.Language(prefix).ready().then(function (L) {
	// Use L here
});

In case of prefixed usage full keys are still available, but prefixed keys are preferred in case of conflict.

Object is similar to $L object on backend, but have less number of methods.

L is used only because it is short for frequent usage

• get()
• format()

get(item : string) : string

Get translation.

cs.Language.ready().then(function (L) {

Also there is simplified way to get translation - to get it as property of object:

cs.Language.ready().then(function (L) {
	L.module_name;
});

format(name : string, arguments : string[]) : string

Method is used for formatted translation. Example:

translation (in json file)

    "hello":"Hello, %s!"

usage

cs.Language.ready().then(function (L) {
	L.format('hello', ['my friend']);
});

Translation string should be formatted according to sprintf() PHP function.

cs.Language.ready().then(function (L) {
	L.hello('my friend')
});

This way is more natural. You can specify as much arguments as you need.
