Function: getGameTranslation()

getGameTranslation(namespace?): TFunction<string, undefined>

Defined in: utils.ts:74

Gets a translation function (t) scoped to a specific namespace and the current language.

This function provides a convenient way to get translations outside of React components (where you would normally use the useGameTranslation hook). It uses i18next's getFixedT method to create a translation function bound to the current language and specified namespace.

The translation function updates automatically when the language changes because it reads i18next.language dynamically at call time.

Parameters

namespace?

string = "passages"

The translation namespace to use. Defaults to 'passages'. Common namespaces include 'passages', 'common', 'ui', etc.

Returns

TFunction<string, undefined>

A translation function that can be used to translate keys within the specified namespace.

Example

// Get translations for passages
const t = getGameTranslation('passages');
const welcomeText = t('intro'); // "Welcome to the game"

// Get translations for common namespace
const tCommon = getGameTranslation('common');
const greeting = tCommon('greeting'); // "Hello"

// Use in non-React contexts (e.g., game logic, utility functions)
const t = getGameTranslation();
const passageText = t('forest.description');
