Description
🐞 bug report
Affected Package
@angular/localize
Is this a regression?
Yes, it's a regression from v8
Description
In v8 was a very handy solution to load your translation data for development.
It's described on this documentation page https://v8.angular.io/guide/i18n#merge-with-the-jit-compiler
With the migration to v9 there's no corresponding solution that will allow to quickly switch locales during runtime for development. As far as I understand, the suggested replacement is to run ng serve
with the desired locale every time.
A little bit background here. We have 2 applications, every with 4 languages. For production, we build it with AOT as suggested. For development we use JIT and load corresponding translation depending on the browser URL (German for /de/
for example), this mimics prod behavior. So, to switch translation and check how the interface looks in a different language, you just need to pick up another item in the language menu. The page reloads at the same URL but with a different language. Starting from v9 it's not supported, so we would have to run ng serve
every time for a new language and start from the home page for every language again.
What would be a suggested way repeat v8 behavior? I checked loadTranslatios
but it accepts a key-value object, not a XLIFF data. Is any function that can transform from XLIFF to a format understandable for loadTranslations
