1.Background

Angular 更新至V16版后，支援 standalone，故移除了 NgModule，而TranslateModule 又要在AppModule中 import，那该如何做呢？

2.NPM packages installation

npm install @ngx-translate/core
npm install @ngx-translate/http-loade

3.Import TranslateModule in bootstrapApplication of main.ts

// import ngx-translate and the http loader
import { TranslateLoader, TranslateModule } from '@ngx-translate/core';
import { TranslateHttpLoader } from '@ngx-translate/http-loader';
import { HttpClient, HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';// required for AOT compilation
export function HttpLoaderFactory(http: HttpClient): TranslateHttpLoader {return new TranslateHttpLoader(http);
}bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {providers: [importProvidersFrom(NzMessageServiceModule,NzDrawerServiceModule,NzModalModule,TranslateModule.forRoot({loader: {provide: TranslateLoader,useFactory: HttpLoaderFactory,deps: [HttpClient]}}))]
}).catch(err => console.error(err));

4. Create i18n files under assets folder.

For example: i18n\en.json, i18n\zh_CN.json, i18n\zh_TW.json

5. Add key value object in i18n files.

For example: en.json

{"test": {"title": "This is a test title."}
}

zh_CN.json

{"test": {"title": "这是一个测试标题."}
}

zh_TW.json

{"test": {"title": "這是一個測試標題."}
}

6. Import TranslateService service and TranslateModule module.

import { TranslateModule, TranslateService } from '@ngx-translate/core';...imports: [NzButtonModule, NzSelectModule, TranslateModule, CommonModule, FormsModule, NzCardModule, NzFormModule, NzInputModule]...constructor(private translate: TranslateService) {this.translate.setDefaultLang('en');this.translate.use('en');this.selectedLang = 'en';}

7. Using in HTML

<h1>{{ 'test.title' | translate }}</h1>

8. Using in component

const lang = this.translate.instant(key);

9. Change language

changeLanguage(): void {let lang = this.translate.getDefaultLang();this.translate.setDefaultLang(this.selectedLang);this.translate.use(this.selectedLang);}

})
export class TranslateComponent implements OnInit {selectedLang: any = {};constructor(private translate: TranslateService) {this.translate.setDefaultLang('en');this.translate.use('en');this.selectedLang = 'en';}ngOnInit(): void {}changeLanguage(): void {let lang = this.translate.getDefaultLang();this.translate.setDefaultLang(this.selectedLang);this.translate.use(this.selectedLang);}log(value: any): void {this.changeLanguage();}getLang(key: string): void {const lang = this.translate.instant(key);console.log(lang);}
}
