Multiple language file for specific feature

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hi all,
I’d like to create multiple language file for specific features. Currently I have one file for each language:

en.json
it.json

and so on…

I’d like to have
en.json (core)
en-feature1.json
it.json (core)
it-feature1.json

How can I implement this scenario?

thanks

I use multi-language on the web but not on phone apps but these are my ideas if you are interested.
Firstly, I would set up a translation service that turned core text into the user’s language based on language files.
Depending on the service, you could have a single language file per language or as you indicate a core language file and the language files per page. This could take up a lot of space. I would actually set it up so that the language files for that individual were loaded from a server. Here is a very simple example from the en_GB language for the web.

PLG_CAREER_PROFILE_FIELD_UPDATE=“Updating your profile”
PLG_CAREER_PROFILE_FIELD_CREATE=“Getting started with Eluceo”
PLG_CAREER_PROFILE_FIELD_START=“Getting started with Eluceo”

The text in capitals is the core that is used within the code. The normal text is the translation, in this case into english.

On the phone app, I have actually set up a help service as a single point to provide help text when it is needed but all of the text is contained within the service code.

I hope this helps.

Thanks @ptuson for your reply but I don’t understand your alternative proposal. I’m using Ionic Native plugin to implement multilanguage

Thanks

Isantaniello,

What plugin are you using? I looked on the framework and couldn’t find anything related.

The link you posted suggests you’re working with an obsolete framework version, but if you ever decide to upgrade it (or anybody else interested in this topic stumbles across this), take a look at locl - it’s what I’m currently using for Angular localization.
