swapPolyglotWithReactIntl

Swap polyglot with our react-intl adapter

This will replace the internationalization of react-admin (It use polyglot). Instead, it will use react-intl Because of that, default messages provided by react-admin won't be compatible anymore. This is why you must use this package to import the react-intl version of messages:

$ npm install @yeutech-lab/ra-language-intl --save

Visit ra-language-intl documentation to view available or add locale(s) translation(s).

Parameters

• webpackConfig object Your application webpack configuration

Examples

const swapPolyglotWithReactIntl = require('@yeutech-lab/react-admin-intl/lib/swapPolyglotWithReactIntl');

// later in your application when you create your webpack configuration
webpackConfig = swapPolyglotWithReactIntl(webpackConfig);

Returns object webpackConfig - The edited webpack config

createI18nProvider

Create a i18nProvider used for retrieving translation messages. The i18nProvider is a function that accept a locale as a parameter, it return:

• a messages object directly for the default locale
• an unresolved Promise that is fetching the message object for the locale

This permit to do application code splitting on language, and load new language only if the user change locale.

Ideally, you create a i18n folder in the src folder of your project and had all the languages here.

import { appLocales as locales, DEFAULT_LOCALE as locale } from './index';

// this will create the i18nProvider
const { i18nProvider, messages } = createI18nProvider({
  locale,
  locales,
  // this must be a function, otherwise webpack does not support dynamic import
