    @intlayer/babel Package

    The @intlayer/babel package provides a set of specialized Babel plugins for Intlayer. These plugins cover the entire build cycle: extracting content declarations, rewriting useIntlayer / getIntlayer calls to optimized dictionary imports, pruning unused fields, and minifying field names.

    Installation

    bash
    npm install @intlayer/babel

    Exports

    Import:

    ts
    import { ... } from "@intlayer/babel";

    Plugins

    Function / ClassDescription
    intlayerExtractBabelPluginBabel plugin that extracts translatable content from source files and injects useIntlayer / getIntlayer hooks automatically. Designed for use with Next.js and Babel-based build tools.
    intlayerOptimizeBabelPluginBabel plugin that transforms useIntlayer and getIntlayer calls and rewrites their imports to optimized JSON dictionary imports (static, dynamic, or via fetch).
    intlayerPurgeBabelPluginBabel plugin that analyses source files and rewrites compiled dictionary JSON files to remove unused fields (build.purge) or rename them to short aliases (build.minify).
    intlayerMinifyBabelPluginBabel plugin that rewrites source files to use the short field aliases assigned during the minification phase (e.g. content.title ← content.a). Relies on intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin.
    makeFieldRenameBabelPluginFactory function that produces a Babel plugin to rename dictionary content field accesses in source files according to the dictionaryKeyToFieldRenameMap populated in the PruneContext.
    makeUsageAnalyzerBabelPluginFactory function that produces a Babel plugin to analyze the usage of useIntlayer / getIntlayer in the source code and aggregate field usage data in the shared PruneContext.
    getSharedPruneContextHelper function that returns the shared PruneContext object for the specified base directory, or null if it has not been initialized yet.

    Plugin Configuration Utilities

    FunctionDescription
    getExtractPluginOptionsLoads the Intlayer configuration and returns ExtractPluginOptions ready for use with intlayerExtractBabelPlugin.
    getOptimizePluginOptionsLoads the Intlayer configuration and compiled dictionaries, and returns OptimizePluginOptions ready for use with intlayerOptimizeBabelPlugin.
    getPurgePluginOptionsLoads the Intlayer configuration and returns PurgePluginOptions ready for use with intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin.
    getMinifyPluginOptionsLoads the Intlayer configuration and returns MinifyPluginOptions ready for use with intlayerMinifyBabelPlugin.

    Types

    TypeDescription
    CompilerModeCompiler mode: 'dev' for development with HMR support, or 'build' for production builds.
    ExtractPluginOptionsOptions for intlayerExtractBabelPlugin: files list, configuration, onExtract callback, etc.
    ExtractResultExtraction result: dictionary key, file path, content, and locale.
    OptimizePluginOptionsOptions for intlayerOptimizeBabelPlugin: dictionary paths, import mode, mode map per dictionary, etc.
    PurgePluginOptionsOptions for intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin: base directory, purge/minify/optimize flags, component files list.
    MinifyPluginOptionsOptions for intlayerMinifyBabelPlugin: base directory, minify/optimize/editorEnabled flags.
    PruneContextShared state between analysis and pruning plugins: field usage maps, rename maps, etc.
    DictionaryFieldUsageField usage result for a single dictionary: Set<string> or 'all' when static analysis is inconclusive.
    NestedRenameEntryNode in the rename tree: the shortName and the children map.
    NestedRenameMapOne level in the rename tree: Map<string, NestedRenameEntry>.
    CompatCallerConfigConfiguration for a compatible usage analyzer for compat-adapter packages (caller name and processing options).
    ScriptBlockScript block extracted from a SFC file (Vue or Svelte): content, start offset, and end offset.

    Utility Functions

    FunctionDescription
    generateShortFieldNameConverts an integer (starting from zero) into a short alphabetic identifier: 0 → 'a', 25 → 'z', 26 → 'aa', etc.
    buildNestedRenameMapFromContentRecursively builds a NestedRenameMap from the content value of a compiled dictionary, respecting Intlayer node structures (translation, enumeration, etc.).
    createPruneContextCreates a new empty PruneContext object initialized with default values.
    extractScriptBlocksExtracts <script> blocks from SFC files (Vue / Svelte) for subsequent Babel analysis.
    BABEL_PARSER_OPTIONSConstant representing Babel parser options covering the supported frameworks (React/Vue/Svelte/Angular/...).
    INTLAYER_CALLER_NAMESConstant list of original Intlayer caller names: ['useIntlayer', 'getIntlayer'].

    Example Usage

    js
    // babel.config.js
const {
  intlayerExtractBabelPlugin,
  intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin,
  intlayerMinifyBabelPlugin,
  intlayerOptimizeBabelPlugin,
  getExtractPluginOptions,
  getPurgePluginOptions,
  getMinifyPluginOptions,
  getOptimizePluginOptions,
} = require("@intlayer/babel");

module.exports = {
  presets: ["next/babel"],
  plugins: [
    [intlayerExtractBabelPlugin, getExtractPluginOptions()],
    [intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin, getPurgePluginOptions()],
    [intlayerMinifyBabelPlugin, getMinifyPluginOptions()],
    [intlayerOptimizeBabelPlugin, getOptimizePluginOptions()],
  ],
};
    Note: The intlayerPurgeBabelPlugin must be declared before intlayerMinifyBabelPlugin, because the latter reads the rename map built by the former. In addition, they both must be preceded by intlayerOptimizeBabelPlugin so that it can see the dictionary keys before the useIntlayer calls are rewritten.
