Why FastAPI Babel CLI is recommanded ?

FastAPI Babel CLI will eliminate the need of concering the directories and paths, so you can concentrate on the project and spend less time on going forward and backward. You only need to specify domain name, babel.cfg and** localization directory **.

NOTICE: Do not use FastAPI Babbel beside fastapi runner files (main.py or run.py), as uvicorn cli will not work.

[========]

Using FastAPI Babel in an API

  • create file babel.py and write the code below.
from fastapi_babel import Babel
from fastapi_babel import BabelConfigs

configs = BabelConfigs(
    ROOT_DIR=__file__,
    BABEL_DEFAULT_LOCALE="en",
    BABEL_TRANSLATION_DIRECTORY="lang",
)
babel = Babel(configs=configs)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    babel.run_cli()
  1. Extract messages with following command

python3 babel.py extract -d/--dir {watch_dir}

**Notice: ** watch_dir is your project root directory, or where you want to extract the messages into that directory.

  1. add your own langauge locale directory, for instance fa.

python3 babel.py init -l fa

  1. go to ./lang/Fa/.po and add your translations.

  2. compile all locale directorties. python3 babel.py compile

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request
from fastapi_babel import _
from .babel import babel

app = FastAPI()
babel.init_app(app)

@app.get("/items/{id}", response_class=HTMLResponse)
async def read_item(request: Request, id: str):
    return id + _("Hello World")
  1. Now you can control your translation langauge from header of request and locale code. The parameter is Accept-Laguage.

How to use Jinja In FastAPI Babel

  1. Add jinja extension to babel.cfg
[python: **.py] 
[jinja2: **/templates/**.html]
extensions=jinja2.ext.autoescape,jinja2.ext.with_
  1. Here is how your main.py should look like.

main.py

from fastapi import FastAPI, Request

from fastapi_babel import Babel
from fastapi_babel import BabelConfigs
from fastapi_babel import _

from fastapi.responses import HTMLResponse
from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles
from fastapi.templating import Jinja2Templates

templates = Jinja2Templates(directory="templates")
configs = BabelConfigs(
    ROOT_DIR=__file__,
    BABEL_DEFAULT_LOCALE="en",
    BABEL_TRANSLATION_DIRECTORY="lang",
)

app = FastAPI()
babel = Babel(app, configs=configs)
app.mount("/static", StaticFiles(directory="static"), name="static")

@app.get("/items/{id}", response_class=HTMLResponse)
async def read_item(request: Request, id: str):
    return templates.TemplateResponse("item.html", {"request": request, "id": id})
  1. Here is sample index.html file

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
