Angular module for managing language / locale selection.

Installation

In your project you can import 'angular-language-select' to make the module available to angular.

Include the dist/language-select.js (or dist/language-select.min.js) script in your app.

Configuration

Set the available and defaultLanguages.

const module = angular.module('app', [
    'language-select.config'
]);

module.config([
    'languageSelectConfig'
    function (
        languageSelectConfig
    ) {
        languageSelectConfig.setAvailableLanguages([
            {
                'id': 'en',
                'label': 'English'
            },

                'id': 'pl',

            }
        ]);

const module = angular.module('app', [

const module = angular.module('app', [

    'project_settings',
    'gettext'
]);

// Set the app language when it is changed
module.run([
    '$rootScope',
    'gettextCatalog',
    'languageStorage',
    function (
        $rootScope,
        gettextCatalog,
        languageStorage
    ) {
        // get the starting/selected app language and set gettext and momentJS to use it
        $rootScope.$on('language-select:change', function (event, selectedLanguage) {
            gettextCatalog.setCurrentLanguage(choice.id);
            moment.locale(choice.id);
        });
    }
]);
