angularjsHow can I use AngularJS to localize my application?
AngularJS provides a built-in localization service called $locale
. It can be used to localize your application and make it available in multiple languages.
Example code
// set language
$locale.id = 'es-MX';
// get localized string
var localizedString = $locale.DATETIME_FORMATS.SHORTDAY[0];
Output example
dom
The code above sets the language to Spanish (Mexico), and retrieves the localized string for the first day of the week.
The $locale
service provides access to multiple localization-related properties, such as DATETIME_FORMATS
, NUMBER_FORMATS
, MESSAGES
, etc. All of these properties contain localized strings for various elements, such as numbers, dates, times, etc.
