Getting Started

Configuration

Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  # stable version install from https://pub.dev/packages
  easy_localization: <last_version>

  # Dev version install from git REPO
  easy_localization:
    git: https://github.com/aissat/easy_localization.git

Load translations from local assets

You must create a folder in your project's root: the path. Some examples:

/assets/"langs" , "i18n", "locale" or anyname ...

/resources/"langs" , "i18n", "locale" or anyname ...

Inside this folder, must put the json or csv files containing the translated keys:

path/${languageCode}-${countryCode}.${formatFile}

example:

• en.json or en-US.json
• ar.json or ar-DZ.json
• langs.csv

must declare the subtree in your pubspec.yaml as assets:

flutter:
  assets:
    - {`path`/{languageCode}-{countryCode}.{formatFile}}

The next step :

import 'dart:developer';

import 'package:example/lang_view.dart';
import 'package:example/my_flutter_app_icons.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_localizations/flutter_localizations.dart';
import 'package:easy_localization/easy_localization.dart';

//import 'generated/codegen_loader.g.dart';

void main(){
  runApp(EasyLocalization(
    child: MyApp(),
    supportedLocales: [Locale('en', 'US'), Locale('ar', 'DZ')], // [Locale.fromSubtags(languageCode: 'zh', scriptCode: 'Hant', countryCode: 'HK')]
    path: 'resources/langs',
    // fallbackLocale: Locale('en', 'US'),
    // startLocale: Locale('de', 'DE'),
    // saveLocale: false,
    // useOnlyLangCode: true,
    // preloaderColor: Colors.black,
    // preloaderWidget: CustomPreloaderWidget(),

    // optional assetLoader default used is RootBundleAssetLoader which uses flutter's assetloader
    // install easy_localization_loader for enable custom loaders
    // assetLoader: RootBundleAssetLoader()
    // assetLoader: HttpAssetLoader()
    // assetLoader: FileAssetLoader()
    assetLoader: CsvAssetLoader()
    // assetLoader: YamlAssetLoader() //multiple files
    // assetLoader: YamlSingleAssetLoader() //single file
    // assetLoader: XmlAssetLoader() //multiple files
    // assetLoader: XmlSingleAssetLoader() //single file
    // assetLoader: CodegenLoader()

Change locale

🔥 The easiest way change or get locale is by using the extension methods on [BuildContext]:

context.locale = locale;

You can also use the static method EasyLocalization.of(context)

EasyLocalization.of(context).locale = locale;

Getting parameters

For getting parameters in Easy Localization use the extension methods or the static method.

context.supportedLocales
//or
EasyLocalization.of(context).supportedLocales

context.fallbackLocale
//or
EasyLocalization.of(context).fallbackLocale

Delete saved locale

For delete saved in Shared preferences use deleteSaveLocale() function.

context.deleteSaveLocale();
//or
EasyLocalization.of(context).deleteSaveLocale();

Loading translations from other resources

🔌 You can use JSON,CSV,HTTP,XML,Yaml files, etc.

See Easy Localization Loader for more info.

Code generation of localization files

Code generation 💻 supports json files, for more information run in terminal flutter pub run easy_localization:generate -h

Steps:

1. Open your terminal in the folder's path containing your project
2. Run in terminal flutter pub run easy_localization:generate
3. Change asset loader and past import.

import 'generated/codegen_loader.g.dart';
...
void main(){
  runApp(EasyLocalization(
    child: MyApp(),
    supportedLocales: [Locale('en', 'US'), Locale('ar', 'DZ')],
    path: 'resources/langs',
    assetLoader: assetLoader: CodegenLoader()
  ));
}
...

4. All done!

Code generation of keys

If you have many localization keys and are confused, key generation will help you. The code editor will automatically prompt keys 🚀.

Code generation 💻 keys supports json files, for more information run in terminal flutter pub run easy_localization:generate -h

Steps:

1. Open your terminal in the folder's path containing your project
2. Run in terminal flutter pub run easy_localization:generate -f keys -o locale_keys.g.dart
3. Past import.

import 'generated/locale_keys.g.dart';

4. All done!

How to usage generated keys:

print(LocaleKeys.title.tr()); //String
//or
Text(LocaleKeys.title).tr(); //Widget
