Localization in Angular2 using Angular-cli

Question

Is there a tool for localization in Angular 2 when using Angular-cli?

I ran into this link (from November) stating that "right now, you can’t use the CLI in translated applications" so the i18n tool can't be used in my application.

Is there another way to translate the application to different languages?

(I'm using webpack, not systemJs)

Good link @R.Richards also, here is a CLI specific link: github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/… — Brocco

There is a story in the Angular CLI wiki which should help you:

https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/stories-internationalization

From that article:

When your app is ready, you can extract the strings to translate from your templates with the ng xi18n command.

ng xi18n --output-path src/locale

Once you've translated you can serve:

ng serve --aot --locale fr --i18n-format xlf --i18n-file src/locale/messages.fr.xlf

Or build:

ng build --aot --locale fr --i18n-format xlf --i18n-file src/i18n/messages.fr.xlf
