Estimated reading time: 1 minute

For multi-language applications where you need to switch between languages, use the createTranslatorFromDictionary function:

import {createTranslatorFromDictionary} from 'typed-locale';
import {en, fr} from './translations';

const dictionary = {en, fr};

const translator = createTranslatorFromDictionary({
  dictionary,
  locale: 'en',
  defaultLocale: 'en',
});

Switching Languages

When using createTranslatorFromDictionary, you can easily switch between languages by creating a new translator with a different locale:

const frTranslator = createTranslatorFromDictionary({
  dictionary,
  locale: 'fr',
  defaultLocale: 'en',
});

const frGreeting = frTranslator(t => t.hello);
console.log(frGreeting); // Output: 'Bonjour'
