defmodule Localize.Message.Function do
@moduledoc """
Behaviour for custom MF2 formatting functions.
Implement this behaviour to add domain-specific formatting
functions to `Localize.Message.format/3`. Custom functions can
be registered in two ways:
## Per-call registration
Pass a `:functions` map in the options to `Localize.Message.format/3`:
Localize.Message.format(
"{$name :personName format=long}",
%{"name" => person},
locale: :en,
functions: %{"personName" => MyApp.PersonNameFunction}
)
## Application-level registration
# config/config.exs
config :localize, :mf2_functions, %{
"personName" => MyApp.PersonNameFunction,
"money" => MyApp.MoneyFunction
}
Application-level functions are available to all
`Localize.Message.format/3` calls without passing `:functions`
on every call. Per-call functions take precedence over
application-level functions of the same name, which in turn
take precedence over built-in functions.
## Implementing a custom function
defmodule MyApp.PersonNameFunction do
@behaviour Localize.Message.Function
@impl true
def format(value, func_opts, options) do
locale = Keyword.get(options, :locale)
# MF2 function options arrive as strings from untrusted message
# input. Map them through an explicit case rather than calling
# `String.to_atom/1` on raw values, which would grow the atom
# table on every distinct attacker-supplied string.
format =
case func_opts["format"] do
"short" -> :short
"long" -> :long
"full" -> :full
_ -> :medium
end
MyApp.PersonName.to_string(value, locale: locale, format: format)
end
end
The `format/3` callback receives:
* `value` — the resolved operand from the MF2 expression.
* `func_opts` — a map of MF2 function options parsed from the
expression (e.g. `%{"format" => "long", "formality" => "formal"}`).
Keys and values are strings.
* `options` — the interpreter's keyword list, which includes at
least `:locale` and `:bindings`.
"""
@doc """
Formats `value` using the MF2 function options and interpreter
options.
### Arguments
* `value` is the resolved operand from the MF2 expression.
* `func_opts` is a map of string key/value pairs from the MF2
function options (e.g. `%{"format" => "long"}`).
* `options` is the interpreter's keyword list (contains at least
`:locale`).
### Returns
* `{:ok, formatted_string}` on success.
* `{:error, reason}` on failure, where `reason` is a string
describing the error.
