Cobrowse Agent UI

Localization

Change active locale at runtime

The project that's using the agent-ui can dictate which locale to use in our components. Below is an example of how to achieve this from an app that's also using i18next to handle localization.

// i18n.js

import i18n from 'i18next';
import { i18n as i18nAgentUI } from 'cobrowse-agent-ui';

i18n.init({
  // ...
});

i18n.on('languageChanged', (language) => {
  i18nAgentUI.changeLanguage(language);
});

export default i18n;

Adding new locales

To add a new locale follow these steps:

• Add a new entry to the locales array inside i18next-parser.config.js.
• Run the npm run i18n command to generate a new locale file.
• Import the new locale JSON file inside src/i18n.js and add it to the resources object (in the i18n instance configuration) keyed by the locale key.
• Import the relevant moment locale inside src/i18n.js.
• Add a new entry to the SUPPORTED_LOCALES constant inside src/i18n.js.

Note: ensure the locale code matches the ones provided by the moment library as these are used to localize dates as well.
