Q: Custom methods and messages when using i18n

Versions

• vee-validate: 2.1.0-beta6
• vue: 2.5.2

Hello, I was trying to follow the documentation here: https://baianat.github.io/vee-validate/guide/localization.html

I am unable to figure how to replace the message thrown by required and at the same time merge my own custom messages.

So far this is what I have done but it is awful and will not work with dynamically generated fields:

Is there a way I could add a method to validaton.js such as:

required: () => 'This field is required.' 

Or any other to fix this?

Thank you

Sorry for the late response, like @nicokoenig pointed out the dictionary API allows you to do all of these things, I think the docs could be revisited to make things clearer about the localization.

Thanks @nicokoenig for keeping an eye out and responding for these issues, much appreciated!

Okay, there is even a more simple approach.

You can simply do this:

const customMessages = {
  en: {
    messages: {
      required: 'Yo, this field is required!'
    }
  }
}

// For initial setup and assuming you imported Validator from `vee-validate`
Validator.localize(customMessages);

// Inside a component
this.$validator.localize(customMessages);

This is also described in the docs, so no need for a PR 😄
