Appearance

Class: Translator ​

The messages in the language of the current request. With the I18nMiddleware on the entrypoint, each request gets one Translator of its negotiated language, shared by the objects of the request: the controller, the @Scoped providers and the access control rules inject it with @Inject(Translator). It is a scoped provider, autoloaded: it needs no registration. Without the middleware (or out of a request), its methods throw I18nTranslatorException; use I18n.translator there.

Example ​

typescript
import {Application} from 'lakutata'
import {buildEntrypoints, Controller} from 'lakutata/com/entrypoint'
import {expressHTTPEntrypoint} from 'lakutata/adapter/express'
import {CLIAction, GET} from 'lakutata/decorator/ctrl'
import {Inject} from 'lakutata/decorator/di'
import {buildI18nOptions, I18nMiddleware, Translator} from 'lakutata/com/i18n'

class OrderController extends Controller {
    @Inject(Translator)
    protected readonly translator: Translator

    //GET /orders/count?lang=zh-CN, or the lang cookie, or Accept-Language
    @GET('/orders/count')
    @CLIAction('count-orders')
    public async count(): Promise<string> {
        return `${this.translator.locale}: ${this.translator.t('order.count', {count: 3})}`
    }
}

Application.run(() => ({
    id: 'shop.app',
    name: 'Shop',
    components: {
        i18n: buildI18nOptions({
            messages: {
                'en': {order: {count: '{count, plural, one {# order} other {# orders}}'}},
                'zh-CN': {order: {count: '{count} 个订单'}}
            }
        }),
        entrypoint: buildEntrypoints({
            controllers: [OrderController],
            middlewares: [I18nMiddleware],
            http: expressHTTPEntrypoint({port: 3000})
        })
    },
    bootstrap: ['entrypoint']

Using a destroyed object (getObject(), buildObject()) throws an ObjectDestroyedException.

Returns ​

Promise<void>

Resolves once the object is destroyed.
