About I18n

[Taskkill]

How can I let a book use a translation from I18n?

or How can get I18n translation from local when it's a server?

I use it for books.

And please excuse my poor English.

Translation should only be done on the client. If you translate on a server it will 1) only translate to English and 2) send the English text to the client. You can translate a string with TextComponentTranslation or I18n.format

[Taskkill]

Is there an API for it, or example?

An API for what

? I18n is an API for internationalising messages.

Vanilla books don't support this. You can do it yourself using TextComponentTranslation.

That method formats/translates a translation key. Example: item.dirt.name -> Dirt.

I know. You don't understand what I mean. Maybe It's because of my poor English.

The book, just when I open it, it'll read the I18n keys and automatically translate to the content.

Such a thing does not exist. You need to make it yourself.

Okay...

There is nothing you can do about translating vanilla books.

The content of vanilla books are stored in the NBT of the stack, and the book will not auto-localize its content when opened by a player.

You can, however, create your own custom item book that opens a custom GUI when right clicked in hand. This will allow you to add translations.

Doing so doesn't make much sense, as the sole purpose of localizations is to allow client-specific translation.

There is. Every text component in vanilla minecraft can be translated. You need to set the translate string in book page text nbt to translation key. https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Commands#Raw_JSON_text

He meant translating book content on the client side.

the content of a vanilla book always stays the same can cannot be localized client-wise.
