npm i --save @lion/localize
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import { localize } from '@lion/localize';
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
The locale which will be loaded by default is accessed via the `localize.locale`.
|
|
|
|
The single source of truth for page's locale is `<html lang="my-LOCALE">`.
|
|
At the same time the interaction should happen via `localize.locale` getter/setter to be able to notify and react to the change.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import { localize } from '@lion/localize.js';
|
|
|
|
localize.addEventListener('localeChanged', () => {
|
|
// do smth when data is loaded for a new locale
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// changes locale, syncs to `<html lang="es-ES">` and fires the event above
|
|
localize.locale = 'es-ES';
|
|
```
