setNewLanguage(context,newLanguage:'en',restart: true, remember: true,)	change language
isDirectionRTL()	is Direction RTL check
currentLanguage	Active language code
locale	Active Locale
locals()	Locales list
delegates	Localization Delegates

Installation

• add .json translation files as assets

• For example : 'assets/lang/ar.json' | 'assets/lang/en.json'
• structure should look like

{
    "appTitle": "تطبيق تجريبى", 
    "buttonTitle": "English", 
    "textArea": "هذا مجرد نموذج للتأكد من اداء الأداة"
}

• define them as assets in pubspec.yaml

flutter:
  assets:
    - assets/lang/en.json
    - assets/lang/ar.json

Initialization

• Add imports to main.dart
• Make main() async and do the following
• Ensure flutter activated WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized()
• Initialize await translator.init(); with neccassry parameters
• Inside runApp() wrap entry class with LocalizedApp()
• Note : make sure you define it's child into different place "NOT INSIDE"

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

main() async {
  // if your flutter > 1.7.8 :  ensure flutter activated
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();

  await translator.init(
    localeType: LocalizationDefaultType.device,
    languagesList: <String>['ar', 'en'],
    assetsDirectory: 'assets/lang/',
  );

  runApp(
    LocalizedApp(
      child: MyApp(),
    ),
  );
}

• LocalizedApp() child example -> MaterialApp()

class MyApp extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyAppState createState() => _MyAppState();
}

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Home(),
      localizationsDelegates: translator.delegates, // Android + iOS Delegates
      locale: translator.locale, // Active locale
      supportedLocales: translator.locals(), // Locals list
    );
  }
}

Usage

• use translate("appTitle")
• use setNewLanguage(context, newLanguage: 'ar', remember: true, restart: true);

class Home extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      drawer: Drawer(),
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('appTitle'.tr()),
        // centerTitle: true,
      ),
      body: Container(
        width: double.infinity,
        child: Column(
          crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceAround,
          children: <Widget>[
            SizedBox(height: 50),
            Text(
              'textArea'.tr(),
              textAlign: TextAlign.center,
              style: TextStyle(fontSize: 35),
            ),
            OutlineButton(
              onPressed: () {
                translator.setNewLanguage(
                  context,
                  newLanguage: translator.currentLanguage == 'ar' ? 'en' : 'ar',
                  remember: true,
                  restart: true,
                );
              },
              child: Text('buttonTitle'.tr()),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}
