Add a lang translation 🌐

The boilerplate includes an i18n feature to store and translate String data. The package used is i18next you can use their documentation for not included functionnalities.

Add a new language

All languages files are located in src/Translations/resources. By default, there is the en.js file. To add a new language just cp en.js fr.js and export it in : src/Translations/resources/index

export { default as en } from './en'
export { default as fr } from './fr'

Now you can translate all keys of the fr.js file :

export default {
  welcome: 'Bienvenue sur le React Native Boilerplate de TheCodingMachine',
  actions: {
    continue: 'Continuer',
  },
  example: {
    helloUser: 'Je suis un faux utilisateur, mon nom est {{name}}',
    labels: {
      userId: "Entrer un id d'utilisateur",
    },
  },
}

That's it ! Now you can change the language with i18n.changeLanguage('fr')
