Export list of locales available, and a function to require an Array of locales

[niftylettuce]

Can you please export the list of locales available? This would be a much better approach than having to manually write it out or programmatically use fs.readdirSync to get the full list. It would also be nice to have an option to load all locales (require them all, or a list passed) at once.

That sounds cool.
Maybe we could add a JSON output file in each npm release. like

root_path/locale.json

[
  {
    "key": "ca",
    "name": "English (Canada)"
  },
 {
    "key": "en-gb",
    "name": "English (United Kingdom)"
  }, 
  ...
]

const locales = require('dayjs/locale.json')
for (const locale of locales) {
  require(`dayjs/locale/${locale.key}`);
}

[titanism]

Note that this approach won't work with ESM, instead you'd need to use dynamic imports or require them all manually.

[titanism]

@iamkun can we publish dayjs/locale/index.js which would require/export all of the locales, and that way if you require('dayjs/locale') it would require all of them? Need an approach that works easily for CJS and ESM.

[titanism]

v1.0.0 of dayjs-with-plugins now has all plugins and locales added out of the box, no need to use dayjs.extend nor dayjs.locale https://github.com/ladjs/dayjs-with-plugins

Ref: https://github.com/ladjs/dayjs-with-plugins/releases/tag/v1.0.0

@iamkun ping us if you add something that lets us easily require all locales and plugins! thanks for building + maintaining this 🙏

[titanism]

dayjs-with-plugins v1.0.1 is fixed, v1.0.0 is deprecated to anyone reading. Also v1.0.1 has ESM support too since we just did the simple approach and require'd everything at the top level.
