<script src="~/Scripts/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/Scripts/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

var Locale = angular.module(Locale, ['ui.router', 'tmh.dynamicLocale']);

“Locale” is my Angular module name. so, I have added the “ng-app”.

<div class="container body-content" ng-app=" Locale">
@RenderBody()
</div>

Html Code

<div ng-controller="LocalizationController" class="container container-md">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-5">
Select a locale
<select ng-model="model.selectedLocale"
ng-options="key as value for (key, value) in availableLocales"
ng-change="changeLocale(model.selectedLocale)" class="form-control"></select>
</div>
<div class="col-md-7">
<table class="table table-responsive table-bordered">
<tr>
<td>
Selected locale id:
</td>
<td>
{{model.selectedLocale}}
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td>
Current locale id:
</td>
<td>
{{$locale.id}}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
A big number:
</td>
<td>
{{1234567890 | number}}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
The Epoch was on:
</td>
<td>
{{0 | date}}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
One million:
</td>
<td>
{{1000000 | currency}}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Angular Config

This module expects for the Angular locales to present at 'angular-i18n/angular-locale_{{locale}}.js'. If the locales are at another URL, this can be changed at tmhDynamicLocaleProvider using localeLocationPattern (string).

.module('Locale')
.config(localeConfig);
function localeConfig(tmhDynamicLocaleProvider) {
tmhDynamicLocaleProvider.localeLocationPattern('Plugin/angular-i18n/angular-locale_{{locale}}.js');
}

Angular Controller

Angular initiates the locale in dropdown and set to the locale id as “en” Angular.
