Use Localization in AngularJS Using Internationalization

In today's web-based applications internationalization is an important feature. For fulfilling this requirement we need to first understand the two terms localization and internationalization.

Localization

The definition of Localization differs from person to person, but the main concept remains same. That is, it refers to the adaptation of a product, application or document, depending on the required language and culture setting (that is normally called the locale). Except for that, localization consists of the following topics depending on the language setting.

Numeric value format.
Date and time format.
Currency format.
Symbols, icons and colors.

Internationalization

Just as for Localization, the definition of Internationalization always varies. The actual concept is to design a product, application or document in such a way that it can be used for the localization settings depending on culture, region or language. Sometimes it is also called globalization.

Internationalization is often written i18n, where 18 is the number of letters between i and n in the English word.

This article explains how to use this concept in AngularJs. Likely, AngularJs directly supports internationalization and it also provides various locale setting files for various locales.

For downloading an AngulaJS Locale file, please visit the URL link and download your required locale setting file.

For doing this, we will first create a blank web site project and then 3 folders within the project with the following name:

HTML
Scripts
UserScripts

Now add a HTML file named index.html with the following code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<script src="../Scripts/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="../Scripts/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="../Scripts/angular-translate.js"></script>
<script src="../UserScript/MyApp.js"></script>
<script src="../UserScript/Index.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-app="MyApp" ng-controller="TranslateController">
<h1>Localization</h1>
<div>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en-de')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_DE"></button>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_EN"></button>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en-ar')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_AE"></button>
</div>
<div>
<h2>{{ 'HEADLINE' | translate }}</h2>
<p>{{ 'INTRO_TEXT' | translate }}</p>
</div>
<div>
<input type="date" />
</div>
</body>
</html>

Now in the preceding file, we use the reference of Angular.js and angular-route file. Since an Angular route file is required, we need to provide the localization code within the config section. We will explain it a little later. The third file that we called is the angular-translate file. Actually this file is responsible for providing the translate service for Angular. The following is the code for the angular-translate file:

return 'translate';
}));

Now the remaining two files, named Index.js and MyApp.Js, are used for defining the Angular app and controller for the page.

The following is the code for MyApp.JS:

var MyApp = angular.module('MyApp', ['translate']);
MyApp.config(function ($translateProvider) {
$translateProvider.translations('en', {
HEADLINE: 'Hello there, This is my awesome app!',
INTRO_TEXT: 'And it has i18n support!',
BUTTON_TEXT_EN: 'english',
BUTTON_TEXT_DE: 'german',
BUTTON_TEXT_AE: 'Arabic'
})
.translations('en-de', {
HEADLINE: 'Hey, das ist meine großartige App!',
INTRO_TEXT: 'Und sie untersützt mehrere Sprachen!',
BUTTON_TEXT_EN: 'englisch',
BUTTON_TEXT_DE: 'deutsch',
BUTTON_TEXT_AE: 'Arabisch'
})
.translations('en-ar', {
HEADLINE: 'هذا هو اختبار التدويل!',
INTRO_TEXT: 'إضفاء الطابع المحلي على القيام به!',
BUTTON_TEXT_EN: 'الإنجليزية',
BUTTON_TEXT_DE: 'ألماني',
BUTTON_TEXT_AE: 'العربية'
},
{ rtl: true });
$translateProvider.useSanitizeValueStrategy('escaped');
$translateProvider.preferredLanguage('en');
});

The following is the code of the Index.js file:

MyApp.controller('TranslateController', function ($translate, $scope)
{
$scope.changeLanguage = function (langKey)
{
$translate.use(langKey);
};
});

In the App.Config part, we use the translate provider to translate the language depending on the selected languages.

Now if we run the project then the output looks as in the following:

But the problem is that when we click on the Arabic Button, it translates the text as Arabic, but never change the document alignment to rtl format since Arabic always uses the rtl (right to left) format. For doing this we need to make a change in the MyApp.js file and add the following new code to the files:

MyApp.run(function ($rootScope, Language)
{
$rootScope.Language = Language;
})
// Service definition
MyApp.factory('Language', function ($translate)
{
var rtlLanguages = ['en-ar'];
var isRtl = function ()
{
var languageKey = $translate.proposedLanguage() || $translate.use();
for (var i = 0; i < rtlLanguages.length; i += 1)
{
if (languageKey.indexOf(rtlLanguages[i]) > -1)
return true;
}
return false;
};
return
{
isRtl: isRtl
};
});

Actually, we create a factory service to define the rtl format is on or off depending on the selected language.

Also, we need to change the controller script in the index.js file.

MyApp.controller('TranslateController', function ($translate, $scope, $window)
{
if (sessionStorage.getItem("Locale") == null || sessionStorage.getItem("Locale") == undefined)
{
$scope.Lang = 'en';
sessionStorage.setItem("Locale", JSON.stringify($scope.Lang));
}
else
{
$scope.Lang = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem('Locale'));
}
$scope.selectedLanguage = $translate.use($scope.Lang); //default
$scope.changeLanguage = function (langKey) {
$translate.use(langKey);
sessionStorage.setItem("Locale", JSON.stringify(langKey));
$window.location.reload();
};
});

Here during the load of the Controller (for the first time of the page load) we set the page language to English (en) and store this information in the browser session variables so that we can access this value in the HTML file to load the dynamic Angular locale script file.

Now after doing this we need to make some changes in the HTML file also.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="MyApp" ng-controller="TranslateController" ng-class="{'rtl':Language.isRtl()}" dir="{{(Language.isRtl())?'rtl':'ltr'}}" lang={{Lang}}>
<head>
<title></title>
<script src="../Scripts/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="../Scripts/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="../Scripts/angular-translate.js"></script>
<script src="../UserScript/MyApp.js"></script>
<script src="../UserScript/Index.js"></script>
<script>
var locale = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem('Locale'));
if (locale) {
document.write('<script src="../scripts/i18n/angular-locale_' + locale + '.js"><\/script>');
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Localization</h1>
<div>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en-de')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_DE"></button>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_EN"></button>
<button ng-click="changeLanguage('en-ar')" translate="BUTTON_TEXT_AE"></button>
</div>
<div>
<h2>{{ 'HEADLINE' | translate }}</h2>
<p>{{ 'INTRO_TEXT' | translate }}</p>
</div>
<div>
<input type="date" />
</div>
</body>
</html>

Execute the project and click on the Arabic button and see the following output.
