Template Global Functions

Below are some global functions that are available in every template.

Version

version  - renders the version of kibble used

Kibble:{{ version }}

Lang

Returns an object describing the current language being rendered. 

• lang.Code  - the language code, e.g. en - English
• lang.Locale   - the language and locale. e.g. en-US
• lang.DefinitionFilePath   - the file to use for this language
• lang.IsDefault   - true if this is the default language for the site

Language:{{ lang.Code }} -> Language:en
Path: {{ lang.DefinitionFilePath }} -> Path:en_AU.all.json

i18n

This function provides a means to localise the page to a specific language. This is done via a translation file.

File: en-US.all.json 

{
"name": "A man needs a name",
"bundle_items_all_films": { "other": "{{.Count}} films" },
}

i18n - Simple case

i18n("name") will search for "name"  in the language file and display the result.

{{ i18n("name") }} -> A man needs a name

i18n - Replacements

i18n("bundle_items_all_films", 2) will search for the translation "bundle_items_all_films"  and pass the argument 2 into the count field.

i18n("bundle_items_all_films", 2) -> 2 films

Configuration

There are some configuration variables that are available to the site.

config("device_user_limit") - this returns the number of devices that a user can have registered against their account.

configInt("device_user_limit", 0)  - this returns the number of devices that a user can have registered against their account as a number, or 0 if there is no value.
