Migrate from NGX-Translate to Intlayer

Migrating your Angular application from ngx-translate to Intlayer is easy with the compat adapter, allowing you to bypass the need to rewrite all your templates.

What to do

Begin by running:

npx intlayer init

This sets up the intlayer.config.ts. Replace your TranslateModule.forRoot() setups and import aliases appropriately to point to @intlayer/ngx-translate.

What it does under the hood

ngx-translate uses TranslateService (instant, get, stream) alongside the {{ 'KEY' | translate:params }} pipe and the [translate] directive.

Under the hood:

• Services: TranslateService wraps getIntlayer and a locale observable, providing exactly the same methods.
• Pipes & Directives: Re-implemented to resolve against Intlayer dictionaries directly.
• Loaders: TranslateHttpLoader setups are converted to warning stubs because Intlayer inherently resolves and bundles your dictionaries at build time (or through standard dynamic imports), completely eliminating the need for HTTP loaders.
