How to use a compiler to preprocess translation values

By default, translation values are added “as-is”. You can configure a compiler that implements TranslateCompiler to pre-process translation values when they are added (either manually or by a loader). A compiler has the following methods:

• compile(value: string, lang: string): string | Function: Compiles a string to a function or another string.
• compileTranslations(translations: any, lang: string): any: Compiles a (possibly nested) object of translation values to a structurally identical object of compiled translation values.

Using a compiler opens the door for powerful pre-processing of translation values. As long as the compiler outputs a compatible interpolation string or an interpolation function, arbitrary input syntax can be supported.
