const I18n = require('gulp-i18n');
 
Gulp.task('i18n', () => {

    $('<script>')
      .attr('src', '/i18n/' + locale + '.js')
      .appendTo('body');
 
    // You can now use the global `i18n` object.
    console.log(window.i18n.menu['ubicación']());
    // This would show "Ubicación" or "Location" depending on
    // selected `locale`.
