Programatically change languages about svelte-i18n HOT 5 CLOSED

Oh, I certainly could do that. But what do you think about just changing the $locale store value?

<script>
 import { addMessages, t, locale } from 'svelte-i18n';
 import en from './en.json';
 import es from './es.json';

 addMessages('en', en);
 addMessages('es', es);
 init({ fallbackLocale: 'en' });


</script>

<button on:click={ () => ($locale = 'es') } > Click here to change to spanish </button>

Or, if you need it outside your components script tag: locale.set('es'). Would that solve your issue? Or do you still prefer a more verbose/explicit way of changing it programatically? I'm not entirely against it, since I've done it with the $dictionary and the addMessages method.

Hey 👋

By "changing dictionaries" you mean literally switch all loaded dictionaries with different ones? Or to just switch the current locale and use it's dictionary?

Can you provide an example of usage of what you want?

@kaisermann I mean switching locales, sorry for the mistake. I am thinking in a function exported by the package in order to change between locales
Example:

<script>
 import { addMessages, t, changeLocale } from 'svelte-i18n';
 import en from './en.json';
 import es from './es.json';

 addMessages('en', en);
 addMessages('es', es);
 init({ fallbackLocale: 'en' });


</script>

<button on:click={ () => changeLocale('es') } > Click here to change to spanish </button>

No, that's just right, thank you!

Found out that was my mistake for not reading the wiki properly haha.

Anyways it could be good if the main readme had brief explainations on the features (just personal guess, i am more used to read readme files instead of wikis because those are more common). I don't mind writing some. Are you open to PRs?

Glad to know it helps 😁 And yeah, of course, PRs are always welcome!
