## The idea behind the example
|
|
|
|
This example app shows how to integrate [React Intl][] with Next.
|
|
|
|
### Features of this example app
|
|
|
|
- Server-side language negotiation
|
|
- React Intl locale data loading via `pages/_document.js` customization
|
|
- React Intl integration at Next page level via `pageWithIntl()` HOC
|
|
- `<IntlProvider>` creation with `locale`, `messages`, and `initialNow` props
|
|
- Default message extraction via `babel-plugin-react-intl` integration
|
|
- Translation management via build script and customized Next server
|
|
|
|
### Translation Management
|
|
|
|
This app stores translations and default strings in the `lang/` dir. This dir has `.messages/` subdir which is where React Intl's Babel plugin outputs the default messages it extracts from the source code. The default messages (`en.json` in this example app) is also generated by the build script. This file can then be sent to a translation service to perform localization for the other locales the app should support.
|
|
|
|
The translated messages files that exist at `lang/*.json` are only used during production, and are automatically provided to the `<IntlProvider>`. During development the `defaultMessage`s defined in the source code are used. To prepare the example app for localization and production run the build script and start the server in production mode:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ npm run build
|
|
$ npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can then switch your browser's language preferences to French and refresh the page to see the UI update accordingly.
