Translation (i18n)

Note: You are viewing the Sails.js v0.9.x documentation. If you're looking for information on v0.8.x, please visit here.

Locale

All locale files live under config/locales. Here is where you can add locale data as JSON key-value pairs. The name of the file should match the language that you are supporting, which allows for automatic language detection based on the user request. Here is an example locale file (config/locales/es.json):

{
    "Hello!": "Hola!",
    "Hello %s, how are you today?": "¿Hola %s, como estas?",
}

Usage

Locales can be accessed through either res.i18n(), or in views through the i18n() function. Remember that the keys are case sensitive and require exact key matches. e.g.:

<h1> <%= i18n('Hello!') %> </h1>
<h1> <%= i18n('Hello %s, how are you today?', 'Mike') %> </h1>

config

Locale config can be found in config/i18n.js, from which you can set your supported locales:

// Which locales are supported?
locales: ['en', 'es'],

// Where are your locale translations located?
localesDirectory: '/config/locales'
