Use i18next with XHR backend in client-side javascript
The documentation at i18next-xhr-backend tells me to use import to load their module. But when I use the import-statement, nothing happens and Firefox gives me a SyntaxError in the developer console:
SyntaxError: import declarations may only appear at top level of a module
So how can I use i18next library with the XHR-backend? The following code example works if the .use(XHR)-line and the corresponding import is commented out (Warning: i18next::backendConnector: No backend was added via i18next.use. Will not load resources.). But it fails, if it is not: ReferenceError: XHR is not defined
//import Fetch from 'i18next-fetch-backend';
let t = null;
i18next
.use(XHR)
.init({
debug: true,
fallbackLng: ['en'],
preload: ['en'],
ns: 'translation',
defaultNS: 'translation',
keySeparator: false, // Allow usage of dots in keys
nsSeparator: false,
backend: {
loadPath: '/locales/{{lng}}/{{ns}}.json',
},
}, (err, _t) => {
if (err) {
reject(err);
return;
}
t = _t;
//resolve();
});
jqueryI18next.init(i18next, $, {
tName: 't', // --> appends $.t = i18next.t
i18nName: 'i18n', // --> appends $.i18n = i18next
handleName: 'localize', // --> appends $(selector).localize(opts);
selectorAttr: 'data-i18n', // selector for translating elements
targetAttr: 'i18n-target', // data-() attribute to grab target element to translate (if different than itself)
optionsAttr: 'i18n-options', // data-() attribute that contains options, will load/set if useOptionsAttr = true
useOptionsAttr: false, // see optionsAttr
parseDefaultValueFromContent: true // parses default values from content ele.val or ele.text
});
$(".nav").localize();

I needed to use i18nextXHRBackend instead of just XHR, since that is the name the class gets loaded as if no loader is used. As the README.md says:
If you don't use a module loader it will be added to window.i18nextXHRBackend
I didn't see that before, and I didn't know that this will happen automatically, but it seems that you have to find that out on your own if not using a module loader. Lesson learned, hopefully this will help some other newbies being stuck on how to use modules in javascript. Therefore, my complete localisation.js looks like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
i18next
.use(i18nextXHRBackend)
.use(i18nextBrowserLanguageDetector)
.init({
debug: true,
backend: {
loadPath: 'locales/{{lng}}/{{ns}}.json',
addPath: 'locales/add/{{lng}}/{{ns}}'
}
}, function(err, t) {
jqueryI18next.init(i18next, $);
$('.translatable').localize();
$('.language-button').click(function() {
i18next.changeLanguage(this.firstElementChild.alt).then(function(t) {
$('.translatable').localize();
$('#signupPassword').pwstrength("forceUpdate");
$('#signupPasswordConfirm').pwstrength("forceUpdate");
});
});
});
});
