Constructor options

• dict – object. Dictionary object where key is message ID and value is message template.
• cache – boolean. Enable compilation result caching.
• compiler Compiler. Message templates compiler.

Custom templates compiler

i18now allow to use custom compiler. It should accepts string and return function which accepts two arguments: locals and options. Options contains templates property and actually it's a dict itself.

Call of abstract compiler will look like so:

compiler.compile(str)(locals, {templates});
