What is @ngx-translate/http-loader?
@ngx-translate/http-loader is an Angular library that provides a way to load translation files from a web server using HTTP. It is used in conjunction with @ngx-translate/core to manage internationalization in Angular applications.
What are @ngx-translate/http-loader's main functionalities?
Loading Translation Files
This feature allows you to load translation files from a web server. The TranslateHttpLoader uses Angular's HttpClient to fetch translation files, which are typically in JSON format.
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { TranslateHttpLoader } from '@ngx-translate/http-loader';
export function HttpLoaderFactory(http: HttpClient) {
return new TranslateHttpLoader(http);
}
Custom File Paths
You can customize the path and file extension of the translation files. This example shows how to set a custom path and file extension for the translation files.
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { TranslateHttpLoader } from '@ngx-translate/http-loader';
export function HttpLoaderFactory(http: HttpClient) {
return new TranslateHttpLoader(http, '/assets/i18n/', '.json');
}
Using with TranslateModule
This feature demonstrates how to integrate the TranslateHttpLoader with the TranslateModule in an Angular application. The HttpLoaderFactory is used to configure the loader for the TranslateModule.
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { TranslateLoader, TranslateModule } from '@ngx-translate/core';
import { HttpLoaderFactory } from './http-loader.factory';
@NgModule({
imports: [
HttpClientModule,
TranslateModule.forRoot({
loader: {
provide: TranslateLoader,
useFactory: HttpLoaderFactory,
deps: [HttpClient]
}
})
]
})
export class AppModule { }
