Vue.js vuetify i18n : How to translate dynamically the Toolbar items? - vue.js

Question

I don't have any problem in localizing the components and views strings but I am lock into finding a way to localize dynamically the Toolbar items ( and of course the same items in the navigation drawer..
Currently they are displayed in App.vue as menuItems[i].title
<v-toolbar-items class="hidden-xs-only">
<v-btn flat :to="menuItems[0].link">
<v-icon left>{{ menuItems[0].icon }}</v-icon>
<span>{{ menuItems[0].title }}</span>
</v-btn>
with the script:
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
appName: 'myAPP',
sideNav: false,
menuItems: [
{ icon: 'home', title: 'Home', link: '/home' },
{ icon: 'info', title: 'About', menu: [{ title: 'Company', link: '/company' }, { title: 'Office', link: '/office' }] },
{ icon: 'people', title: 'Members', menu: [], link: '/members' },
{ icon: 'local_library', title: 'Blog', link: '/blog' },
{ icon: 'local_grocery_store', title: 'Shopping', link: '/shopping' }
]
}
},
methods: {
switchLocale: function (newLocale) {
this.$store.dispatch('switchI18n', newLocale)
}
}
}
</script>
Should I use a computed value ? or use directly $t() in the template ?
feedback, advices and links appreciated
UPDATE
main.js
Vue.filter('translate', function (value) {
if (!value) return ''
value = 'lang.views.global.' + value.toString()
return i18n.t(value)
})

{
"views": {
"global": {
"Home": "Home",
"Section1": "Section 1",
..

Vue provides filter to help us to format the common text.
So I think it will be one of your choices.
You can click above link to follow the guide to set up your filters.
Edit:
I just realized Vue-filters should not be dependent on this context as the Vue author said. So updated my answer as below:
Then the codes will be like below:
// create vue-i18n instance
const i18n = new VueI18n({
locale: getDefaultLanguage(),
messages: langs
})
// create global filter
Vue.filter('myLocale', function (value) {
return i18n.t(value)
})
In your views or components:
<template>
<v-toolbar-items class="hidden-xs-only">
<v-btn flat :to="menuItems[0].link">
<v-icon left>{{ menuItems[0].icon }}</v-icon>
<span>{{ menuItems[0].title | myLocale }}</span>
</v-btn>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
appName: 'myAPP',
sideNav: false,
menuItems: [
{ icon: 'home', title: 'Home', link: '/home' },
{ icon: 'info', title: 'About', menu: [{ title: 'Company', link: '/company' }, { title: 'Office', link: '/office' }] },
{ icon: 'people', title: 'Members', menu: [], link: '/members' },
{ icon: 'local_library', title: 'Blog', link: '/blog' },
{ icon: 'local_grocery_store', title: 'Shopping', link: '/shopping' }
]
}
},
filters: {
myLocaleWhichNotWork: function (value) {
return this.$t(value) // this won't work because filters should not be dependent on this context
}
}
}
</script>
