Installation

# yarn

Getting started

Follow the i18n guide up to point 3, then come back here.

1. Add the i18n option to your next.config.js.

   const i18n = require("./i18n.config");
   
   /** @type {import('next').NextConfig} */
   const nextConfig = {
     i18n: {
       locales: i18n.locales,
       defaultLocale: i18n.defaultLocale,
     },
   };
   
   module.exports = nextConfig;

2. Add the I18nProvider to your _app.tsx (.jsx) file.

   import type { AppProps } from "next/app";
   import { useRouter } from "next/router";
   
   import { I18nProvider } from "@drawilet/nextjs-i18n";
   import resources from "../locales/data.json"; // OUTPUT_PATH
   
   export default function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {
     const router = useRouter();
   
     return (
       <I18nProvider resources={resources} router={router}>
         <Component {...pageProps} />
       </I18nProvider>
     );
   }

3. In the pages where you want to use i18n, import the useI18n hook.

   import { useI18n } from "@drawilet/nextjs-i18n";
   
   export const _i18n = {
     title: "Hello World",
   };
   
   const Page = () => {
     const i18n = useI18n();
   
     return (
       <div>
         <h1>{i18n("title")}</h1>
       </div>
     );
   };
   
   export default Page;

   For components

   import { useI18n } from "@drawilet/nextjs-i18n";
   export const _i18n = {};
   
   const Header: Component = () => {
     const i18n = useI18n("components", "/Layout/Header");
   
     return <header></header>;
   };
   export default Header;

Note

Remember to use the command npx i18n generate every time you update the texts to be translated.
