hapi-locale-17

Locale and language detection for Hapi Server v17.

Evaluates locale information from accept-language header and query parameter and attaches locale to request.locale available in all Hapi route handlers.

If a locale query parameter is provided, it has highest priority. Second priority is the accept-language http request header. Final priority is a fallback locale.

Target attribute request.locale and query parameter locale can be renamed.

Install

npm install --save hapi-locale-17
