How to install locale only if that is not exist yet

I want to set a locale, but it failed.
$ sudo update-locale LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
*** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings: LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
To use the locale I installed the locale by locale-gen
$ sudo locale-gen ja_JP.UTF-8
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
ja_JP.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
$ sudo update-locale LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
$
Now I want to write a shell script to configure it.
How can I know which locale is already installed so that I can avoid regenerate the locale?

I found a option -a
that returns all locals in system.
I could check the existence of the locale by this code.
if [ `locale -a | grep -c ja_JP.utf` -ge 1 ]; then echo exist; else echo not exist; fi
