I'm using Angular Dynamic locale and Angular-Translate for internationalization and localization (i18n). And works well.
I like the idea of angular-translate that is possible to change the language without refresh the page.
All the words from angular-translate changed automatically, but not the words from angular_locale (datapicker, etc), that the users need refreshing the page.
Thanks!
Just in case you don't have absolute necessity to use Angular Dynamic locale,you can create your own LocaleFactory like this:
factory('LocaleFactory', function ( $locale, $translate) {
var locales = {
nl: {
"DATETIME_FORMATS": {
"AMPMS" : [
"AM",
"PM"
],
"DAY" : [
"zondag",
"maandag",
"dinsdag",
"woensdag",
"donderdag",
"vrijdag",
"zaterdag"
],
"MONTH" : [
"januari",
"februari",
"maart",
"april",
"mei",
"juni",
"juli",
"augustus",
"september",
"oktober",
"november",
"december"
],
"SHORTDAY" : [
"zo",
"ma",
"di",
"wo",
"do",
"vr",
"za"
],
"SHORTMONTH": [
"jan.",
"feb.",
"mrt.",
"apr.",
"mei",
"jun.",
"jul.",
"aug.",
"sep.",
"okt.",
"nov.",
"dec."
],
"fullDate" : "EEEE d MMMM y",
"longDate" : "d MMMM y",
"medium" : "d MMM y HH:mm:ss",
"mediumDate": "d MMM y",
"mediumTime": "HH:mm:ss",
"short" : "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm",
"shortDate" : "dd-MM-yyyy",
"shortTime" : "HH:mm"
},
"NUMBER_FORMATS" : {
"CURRENCY_SYM": "\u20ac",
"DECIMAL_SEP" : ",",
"GROUP_SEP" : ".",
"PATTERNS" : [
{
"gSize" : 3,
"lgSize" : 3,
"macFrac": 0,
"maxFrac": 3,
"minFrac": 0,
"minInt" : 1,
"negPre" : "-",
"negSuf" : "",
"posPre" : "",
"posSuf" : ""
},
{
"gSize" : 3,
"lgSize" : 3,
"macFrac": 0,
"maxFrac": 2,
"minFrac": 2,
"minInt" : 1,
"negPre" : "\u00a4\u00a0",
"negSuf" : "-",
"posPre" : "\u00a4\u00a0",
"posSuf" : ""
}
]
}
}
};
return {
setLocale: function (key) {
$translate.use(key);
angular.copy(locales[key], $locale);
}
};
});
Similarly you can add other locals as well
Call setLocale to change the locale
run(function (LocaleFactory) {
LocaleFactory.setLocale('nl');
});
When ever your locale get changed you can call setLocale by providing the locale key as an argument. It will change your locale instantly
