    A Panini Localization Helper

This helper helps you to localize your email templates created with zurbs panini.
Currently this helper will only work in a custom clone of the panini code and not as a panini-helper as described here.
Installation

Make a clone of the panini source
git clone https://github.com/zurb/panini.git
Add the localization.js to the helpers folder.
Register the new handler in render.js#61:
this.Handlebars.registerHelper('localize', require('../helpers/localize')(pageData.page));
Now reference your extended clone in your email project package.json.
How it works

The helper is searching for statements like this {{#localize}}paragraphXY{{/localize}}. paragraphXY is the key inside the localize JSON. Based on the current page-name the helper will look up in the localization folder for files with the same name. But it is a little bit smarter. It will also look for files wich start with the same string. If your page is called for example Foo.Bar.Page1.pl-PL.html, the following localization files will be crawled:

Foo.json
Foo.PL.json
Foo.pl-PL.json
Foo.Bar.json
Foo.Bar.PL.json
Foo.Bar.Page1.json
Foo.Bar.Page1.PL.json
Foo.Bar.Page1.pl-PL.json

Why would it do it such like that?

Let's say you have a very common localization string like a contact email wich is for all your emails in all languages the same. And you don't want to put this email address inside the partial or template. Now you can put this email into Foo.json. But for a single language your want an other email address, just override it in Foo.pl-PL.sjon.
Another scenario could be to have a email for a whole country, then put this into Foo.us.json for example. Now all us pages will inherit this value (unless they do not have their own value).
What's inside the localization JSON?

Very straight forward -  use key and value:
{
    "key1": "hello",
    "key2": "world"
}
Example how to structure your Email Project for localization

You can create your project with the following structure:
Layouts

src\layouts\Brand1.Project.html
src\layouts\Brand2.Project.html
Localization (new)

src\localization\Brand1.Project.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.en.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.en-US.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.de.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.de-DE.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.de.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.en.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.en-US.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.de.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.de-DE.json
src\localization\Brand1.Project.Page1.de.json
Pages

src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.html
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.en.html
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.en-US.html
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.de.html
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.de-DE.html
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.de.html
Partials

src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.html (contains the page content)
src\pages\Brand1.Project.Page1.us.html (contains us-specific stuff like other address format)
