localize_and_translate

Flutter localization in easy steps, eas

Getting Started

🔩 Installation

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  localize_and_translate: <last_version>

Create folder and add translation files like this

assets
└── lang
    ├── {languageCode}.{ext}                  //only language code
    └── {languageCode}-{countryCode}.{ext}    //or full locale code

Example:

assets
└── lang
    ├── en.json
    └── en-US.json 

Declare your assets localization directory in pubspec.yaml:

flutter:
  assets:
    - assets/lang/

⚠️ Note on iOS

For translation to work on iOS you need to add supported locales to ios/Runner/Info.plist as described here.

Example:

<key>CFBundleLocalizations</key>
<array>
  <string>en</string>
  <string>nb</string>
</array>

⚙️ Configuration

Add LocalizedApp widget like in example

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:localize_and_translate/localize_and_translate.dart';

void main() async {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
    await LocalizeAndTranslate.init(
        assetLoader: const AssetLoaderRootBundleJson('assets/lang/'), // <-- change the path of the translation files
        supportedLanguageCodes: <String>['ar', 'en'], // <-- or supportedLocales: [Locale('ar', 'EG'), Locale('en', 'US')],
    );
  
    runApp(
        LocalizedApp(
            child: MaterialApp(
              // style 1
              builder: LocalizeAndTranslate.directionBuilder,
              // style 2
              builder: (BuildContext context, Widget? child) {
                child = LocalizeAndTranslate.directionBuilder(context, child);
        
                return child;
              },
              home: const MyHomePage(),
              locale: context.locale,
              localizationsDelegates: context.delegates,
              supportedLocales: context.supportedLocales,
            ),
        ),
    );
}

Usage

Init

Call LocalizeAndTranslate.init(params) in your main before runApp.

void main() async{
  // ...
  // Needs to be called so that we can await for LocalizeAndTranslate.init();
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await LocalizeAndTranslate.init(
    assetLoader: const AssetLoaderRootBundleJson('assets/lang/'), // <-- change the path of the translation files
    supportedLocales: <Locale>[Locale('ar', 'EG'), Locale('en', 'US')], // <-- or  supportedLanguageCodes: <String>['ar', 'en'],
    defaultType: LocalizationDefaultType.asDefined, // <-- change the default type
  );
  // ...
  runApp(
    // ...
  );
  // ...
}

or over network

void main() async{
  // ...
  // Needs to be called so that we can await for LocalizeAndTranslate.init();
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await LocalizeAndTranslate.init(
    assetLoader: const AssetLoaderNetwork({
      'ar': 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/msayed-net/localize_and_translate/main/example/assets/lang/ar.json',
      'en': 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/msayed-net/localize_and_translate/main/example/assets/lang/en.json',
    }),
    supportedLocales: <Locale>[Locale('ar', 'EG'), Locale('en', 'US')],
    defaultType: LocalizationDefaultType.asDefined,
  );
  // ...
  runApp(
    // ...
  );
  // ...
}

context extensions

LocalizeAndTranslate uses extension methods [BuildContext] for access to some values.

Example:

// set locale
context.setLocale(Locale('en', 'US'));

// set language code
context.setLanguageCode('en');

// get locale
context.locale; // en_US

// get language code
context.languageCode; // en

Translate tr()

Main function for translate your language keys

print('title'.tr(defaultValue: 'Awesome App')); //String

Translations

as json values pair

{
  "title": "Awesome App",
  "hello": "Hello",
  "world": "World!",
}
