    Translation

    Defining Translations

    With react-intlayer, you can use translations in React components. Here's an example:

    **/*.tsx
    import type { FC } from "react";
    import { useIntlayer } from "react-intlayer";
    
    const MyComponent: FC = () => {
    const content = useIntlayer("multi_lang");
    
    return (
      <div>
        <p>{content.welcomeMessage}</p>
      </div>
    );
    };
    
    export default MyComponent;

    This component fetches the corresponding translation based on the current locale set in your application.

    Configuration for Locales

    To ensure proper translation handling, you can configure the accepted locales in intlayer.config.ts. This configuration allows you to define the languages that your application supports:

    intlayer.config.ts
    import { Locales, type IntlayerConfig } from "intlayer";
    
    const config: IntlayerConfig = {
      internationalization: {
        locales: [Locales.ENGLISH, Locales.FRENCH, Locales.SPANISH],
      },
    };
    
    export default config;

    Using Translations in React Components

    With react-intlayer, you can use translations in React components. Here's an example:

    **/*.tsx
    import type { FC } from "react";
    import { useIntlayer } from "react-intlayer";
    
    const MyComponent: FC = () => {
    const content = useIntlayer("multi_lang");
    
    return (
      <div>
        <p>{content.welcomeMessage}</p>
      </div>
    );
    };
    
    export default MyComponent;

    This component fetches the corresponding translation based on the current locale set in your application.

    Custom Content Objects

    intlayer supports custom content objects for translation, allowing you to define more complex structures while ensuring type safety. Here's an example with a custom object:

    **/*.content.ts
    import { t, type Dictionary } from "intlayer";
    
    interface ICustomContent {
      title: string;
      content: string;
    }
    
    const customContent = {
      key: "custom_content",
      content: {
        profileText: t<ICustomContent>({
          en: {
            title: "Page Title",
            content: "Page Content",
          },
          fr: {
            title: "Titre de la Page",
            content: "Contenu de la Page",
          },
          es: {
            title: "Título de la Página",
            content: "Contenido de la Página",
          },
        }),
      },
    } satisfies Dictionary;
    
    export default customContent;
